A few weeks ago I recieved an email for the cutest proposal I've heard of in a while. When Alex reached out to me about proposing to his girlfriend (also named Alex) at Franklin Park Zoo, I was curious about such a unique location and had to know the full story:
“As far as the story goes, my girlfriend is a vet student and animals are really special to her. One of her favorite places is the zoo. We also have had a smashed penny collection (those little souveniers they often have at zoos and other attractions) since we started dating (it grew out of her old childhood collection). Anyways, my idea is to go to the Franklin Park Zoo together and propose using one of the penny machines. She’s never been to that zoo before. Once we smash the penny I will swap the one that’s pressed out with a custom one I had made that asks her to marry me.”
So much thought and love went into this proposal and I'm happy I was there to capture it all. Congratulations Alex & Alex!
