A Horse Girl’s Dream: Austin & Erin’s Vibrant Proposal at Spotted Horse Ranch

A Horse Girl’s Dream: Austin & Erin’s Romantic Proposal at Spotted Horse Ranch

Austin knew his proposal to Erin needed to match her passion as a horse girl, making Spotted Horse Ranch in Hocking Hills, Ohio, the ideal setting.

A woman sits in a saddle on a trail ride and examines her new engagement ring while she smiles big.

Trail Ride Proposal 

After a quiet guided trail ride, Austin proposed to Erin under a shaded tree by the barn, and she happily said yes.

Magic Across the Ranch

After saying yes, we explored the property for portraits—among the horses, inside the barn, on the swing, by the vintage tractor, and even with a curious ranch turkey. Erin loved the blue chicory in the field, so we also recreated the proposal surrounded by wildflowers..
