Idaho Falls, Water in Eastern Idaho

I woke up bright and early at 4:45 am to hopefully catch the sunrise at a waterfall I was going to drive to. Well my GPS has a history of leading me to dirt roads that tend to go on for 30 miles whenever I go to look for waterfalls. And that's what happened this morning. So it wouldn't be a complete waste of the day I decided to go local and take some shots at Idaho Falls and along the way. Here's what I captured: 

All dirt roads apparently lead to no where and go on forever, but at least it was pretty! 

This one could be my favorite. . . 

The Falls looked absolutely gorgeous in the rain! 

My mother loves this bridge so I just had to take a picture of it! :) I like it too. 

Mesa Falls, Water in Eastern Idaho

I've been wanting to go back and photograph Mesa Falls ever since I got my Nikon  So I decided to go at 6 a.m. because that's the only time I could go all the way out there. The good part is I was the only one there!

Went exploring to find beautiful places for a project I'm working on. I took these just before sunset.

Random Proposal While Sight-Seeing!!

May 2013

So I was out doing a landscape photo-shoot because it was overcast and I wanted to explore. And while I was on location, this couple came to where I  photographing a waterfall. I said hello and then the guy came up to me and introduced himself and then told me he was going to surprise his girlfriend and propose! He asked if I could just continue what I was doing and then photograph the proposal. I told him definitely! He took his girl into the water and then got down on one knee and she said yes. And I caught it all on camera.

It was a fun random thing to happen and I'm so happy for them. I'm thinking that I should go shoot at random beautiful places from now on.

Here's some photos.

This is my favorite! 

Yay for people getting engaged!
