Burlington Proposal Photography | Stephen and Becki

“Becki has an amazing sense of humor and always gets the joke.  I pick on her all the time for laughing at herself, but it’s one of the things that I love about her.  Whenever she laughs at one of her own jokes, I jokingly tell her that she’s her own biggest fan, but that’s not true, because I’m her biggest fan.  I loved that she has a no-nonsense attitude.  She challenged me in ways that I never encountered before.  There were definitely times when someone needed to get me off of my high-horse, and she always knew the right way to do it and keep me in check.  After that, it was like an addiction and I needed more of her in my life.  Love is one hell of a drug….”-Stephen 

 “I do remember at some point during our relationship years ago, realizing that this is what it felt like to have someone truly love you for who you are as a person and to feel RESPECT at the highest level. That was it for me, knowing and feeling this was when I KNEW he was it for me. I couldn’t and wouldn’t ever trade him in for a younger model.” – Becki

“She’s the first person that I’ve felt 100% comfortable with.  I’ve never trusted anyone more than I trust her.  I know that there’s nothing I couldn’t tell her as well as there’s nothing she can’t tell me.  I’m not sure that there’s a definitive moment, but there came a time when I would look at her and realize that I wanted to wake up next to her every morning for the rest of my life. ” -Stephen

“Every guy knows (or should know) that a proposal is a big deal for women.  Like, a BIG deal.  When we planned a weekend away in Vermont, I knew that was when I wanted to pop the question, and I wanted to make it special.  However, Vermont in the wintertime made for a perplexing time in regards to planning.  Becki loves animals so I knew that she would be excited to go on a horse-drawn sleigh ride and I knew that would give me an opportunity to make it unforgettable for her.  After making that decision, I came across a sleigh-ride proposal on Paparazzi Proposal’s website and I knew she would LOVE to have a photographer there to capture the moment. ” -Stephen
