A casual hello turned into forever ♡

Robert and Lexi were both attending college at Lake Area in Watertown, SD. When one day Lexi received a follow notification from Robert. She didn't think much of it but looked him up to see what he was all about. Lexi recognized him from being around the same area and thought he looked like a pretty good guy! :) Around the same time, Robert added Lexi on snapchat but never reached out. Around a week later, Robert started talking to Lexi. They both continued to talk back and forth and decided to meet up. When they met up the first night, Robert offered to come and pick Lexi up from her apartment, even after he had a long day at work. That first night we talked for hours. We found out we had a lot in common and knew a lot of the same people. After that we knew that there was something there! We talked and hung out for months! Robert ended up meeting Lexi's family on a camping trip at Wylie park and Lexi ended up meeting Robert's family at his college graduation party. About a month later after the town's Tower Days celebration Robert finally asked Lexi to be his girlfriend.

Fast forward to a couple years later. Lexi had won a 20 minute photography session with a local photographer. She had won it around Christmas time, so she didn't get it scheduled right away. A few weeks later the photographer reached out asking when Lexi would like to schedule the photos and she didn't think anything of it. Lexi went back and forth with Robert of when to schedule them and he wasn't acting excited at all. Finally a date was set. Leading up to the photos, Lexi was really excited and Robert didn't act like he was. He would make comments about what to wear and where the photos should be taken, that made Lexi think maybe he had something up his sleeve. Even the night before and day of Robert was acting not enthused about taking pictures so Lexi didn't think anything of it. Come the day of; we had taken the pictures and the photographer had asked Lexi if she got all the pictures she wanted. We were almost done when she asked us to go to one more area by some trees. Lexi was walking in front while Robert behind and all of the sudden he was on one knee. Come to find out Robert had planned it all out. From contacting the photographer, to getting the ring on time.

The sweetest proposal and most amazing photos!
