Taleah & Ryan

There’s nothing more romantic than a snow covered mountain top, a beautiful floral arrangement – and of course, two newly engaged lovebirds in blissful love! Talented florist Taleah shares her stunning engagement shoot and story of how her partner surprised her and popped the question!

We woke up at 4am one Saturday morning to go for a day of Mountain Biking with friends in Bright, Victoria. This wasn’t a one off occurrence, so I wasn’t suspicious that “this could be the day!” because we often do biking trips just like this one. The morning was beautiful and sunny and made for some nice riding. On our last lap, the rain poured down. We ended up fully covered in mud but happy.

After I changed into a comfy hoodie I noticed Ryan changing into his Sunday best (well, almost) and I started to get a bit suspicious at that point. We drove to a beautiful look out over bright at the top of a mountain and the rain stopped, the clouds parted and we had an amazing view of the little town below us. Ryan got down on one knee and I said yes to spending life with my best friend.

We returned in the winter with our fabulous photographer Cindy Habel to capture some beautiful snowy photos. As I am a florist, I chose to add to the snowy environment with a wintery foliage bouquet.
