And Jane also can't just go hide in the woods and let me do it because the couple knows her personally. And so if the groom shows up to the engagement and Jane isn't there, he's going to be like red flags are going off and it could risk ruining the whole proposal. Then, out of nowhere, we hadn't seen a single soul at the park yet that day.

We look toward the direction of the overlook, and this lovely middle-aged woman is jogging in our direction. She's very fit, very in shape, and I'm like, this poor woman doesn't know what's coming. So I flag her over. I'm like, ma'am, excuse me. She gets close to us. She looks horrified, like it stinks. There's poop everywhere. She's like, what did I just run across?

I'm like, ma'am, we're clearly in a situation. We're photographers. We're here shooting an engagement. The couple is on their way. We have no way of cleaning up this poop. Like, do you have anything? She's looking very skeptical, but for some reason is nice enough to agree. You know, I think I have some like old beach towels or something in my car. I can run down to my car and look.

And I'm like, okay, but here's the catch, ma'am. You can't go down the normal path because you're going to run out of time. So I ask this poor woman to please cut down the very steep hill back down to the parking lot. And she, by some miracle, says, okay, sure.

Seriously, like that's Southern hospitality. She runs down the hill. Jane and I are standing there. She is so embarrassed, like can barely look me in the eyes. I'm trying to be like, it's okay, it's okay. You know, it feels like a lifetime that we're standing up there, but it was probably 10 minutes, 15 minutes. The woman comes running back up.

She has a bottle of hand sanitizer and these old musty beach towels. And she's like, yeah, you guys can obviously keep these. We don't get her name. We don't get her phone number, her address. I have no idea who she is, but we just say, thank you so much. And she takes off finishing her jog back down the path, and we never see her again. Sure.

She pulls her denim shorts, fastens them, turns around, and there is just, like, a huge shit stain on the back of these denim shorts. And I'm like, okay, well, we gotta go. They're five minutes away. So we make our way to the overlook, and she's like, here's what's gonna happen. You're gonna do the shoot. You're gonna take my camera. I'll get the wide-angle shots and just stay far away.

So I'm, like, nervous, because I'm not a real photographer. But anyway, we go hide in the bushes. The couple comes up. They get engaged. It's lovely. They're so happy. The girl is crying. I get some nice detail shots. Jane is waving at them and, like, strategically maneuvering to, like, keep her backside away from them. the whole time. And then they say thank you so much.
