Let alone not giving the ring to the girl as soon as they get it.\u00a0 Well for Greg it was nothing but waiting, he waited over eight months after he purchased the ring to propose.\u00a0 Greg gave me a call about a week before they came to Vegas and told me what he wanted to do. At first we had planned on me hiding and shooting. After talking we thought it would be fun to tell Amanda, Greg had hired a photographer to shoot Christmas pictures at the Vegas sign. They would have 2 hours with me. So Amanda was excited (well that is what she told me).\u00a0 After the Vegas sign we went and walked the strip and did a little circle from Bellagio down to Ballys and back up to Bellagio so we could catch the water show.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"p3-insert-all size-full aligncenter\" title=\"Mindy Bean photography, las vegas engagement photographer,\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mindybeanblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/greg1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"622\" height=\"900\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"p3-insert-all size-full aligncenter\" title=\"Mindy Bean photography, las vegas engagement photographer,\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mindybeanblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/greg2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"622\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"p3-insert-all size-full aligncenter\" title=\"Mindy Bean photography, las vegas engagement photographer,\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mindybeanblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/greg3.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"622\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"p3-insert-all size-full aligncenter\" title=\"Mindy Bean photography, las vegas engagement photographer,\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mindybeanblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/greg4.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"622\" height=\"900\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"p3-insert-all size-full aligncenter\" title=\"Mindy Bean photography, las vegas engagement photographer,\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mindybeanblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/greg5.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"622\" height=\"900\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The whole time I was shooting I had to not make eye contact with Greg b.c\u00a0 knowing me I would given some kind of big cheesy grin and Amanda would think something was up.\u00a0 So the time finally came and I had put them in front of the water show.\u00a0 I told them to look away and not turn around unless I told them to.\u00a0 I had them make a couple turns then I told Amanda to turn around and gave Greg the nod to go ahead.\u00a0 He looks at me and points down to shoe.\u00a0 I was thinking are you kidding me.\u00a0 Thank goodness Doug was there to dig the ring box in Greg&#8217;s sock. I can&#8217;t believe that was where he was carrying it the whole time.
