Surprise Proposal at the Dallas Arboretum Botanical Gardens

Spring at the Dallas Arboretum Botanical Gardens is a dream, and Mac chose the perfect day to surprise Lexie with a proposal she’ll never forget. Hidden among the vibrant blooms and quiet corners of the gardens, every moment felt like it was meant just for them. Watching Lexie’s reaction as Mac popped the question was a reminder of how small, thoughtful details (like timing, setting, and intention) can turn a simple gesture into something truly magical. Being there to capture their joy made the day feel like a story unfolding in real time, and I couldn’t help but fall in love with this sweet, thoughtful couple along the way.

A Perfect Day in the Gardens

After the proposal, we wandered through the Dallas Arboretum Botanical Gardens, letting the greenery and gorgeous architecture set the scene for every moment. Sunlight streaming through the trees, arches and pathways, and all the vibrant flowers made every shot feel so natural and timeless. Mac and Lexie were totally themselves—laughing, holding each other close, and just soaking it all in—and it reminded me that the best photos come from those simple, real interactions. Everything about the day felt so effortless and perfect, from the carefully picked spot to the stunning backdrop, and I felt so lucky to witness such a sweet story unfold.
