Payne’s Valley Golf Course Proposal

Payne’s Valley Golf Course Proposal | Christian and Leah

As you may already know, I’ve been a Branson Proposal Photographer for many years. However, Christian and Leah’s Payne’s Valley Golf Course Proposal was a first for me!

This was my first golf course proposal! How? I don’t know! I’ve just never done one before.

But wait, there’s more. 😉 Yes, more fun facts.

Payne’s Valley Golf Course used to be Murder Rock Golf Course, and I used to work there as a bartender. Small world, huh? Well, it’s a little different now. It was bought by new owners and designed by some people you might have heard of. Johnny Morris and Tiger Woods came in and changed it a bit, added some waterfalls, and, as I like to say, “Big Cedar’d” it.

If you’ve ever been to Branson, you know what I mean.

I worked at John Daly’s Murder Rock about 8-9 years ago. If you’re wondering how it got that name, a bunch of people were murdered on a rock. I’m not joking. New names can be good things.

I was doing photography at the time, but I had only been in business for a short time and wasn’t full time yet. It was actually the last “job” that I had before going full time working for myself!

Okay, enough of the fun facts. Let’s get to Christian and Leah’s proposal. However, I do have one more fun fact. This was the first-ever proposal at Payne’s Valley Golf Course! It only recently opened, so I hope that I get to go back.

The weather wasn’t ideal (check out one of the bridge photos!), but these two toughed it out and were outside all day! It was rainy, it was cold, but it was also perfect.

Payne’s Valley has a 19th hole. I’m no golf expert (despite the aforementioned job at the golf course, I just made drinks), but even I know that isn’t typical. If you make a hole in one, you get a $1000 gift card to Bass Pro/Cabelas. I did ask; no one has made a hole in one yet. You can read more about it here.

Although neither Christian nor Leah made the hole in one, Christian did have another surprise for Leah waiting! I was at the 19th hole, pretending to be photographing everyone. Little did she know that I was only there for the two of them!

Christian even pointed me out and said to wave to the camera!! Then, well, I’ll just let you figure it out! Here are some of my favorites from Christian and Leah’s Payne’s Valley Golf Course proposal.

If you haven’t figured it out yet, Leah said yes!

Congratulations again, Christian and Leah! After the proposal, we had to go in and take some fun photos, including the one with Tiger Woods, which is absolutely hilarious.

Missouri weather can be so unpredictable, and our Missouri weather can be so unpredictable, and our forecast called for rain at our originally scheduled session time, but thankfully Zach was able to move it earlier in the day without Megan suspecting anything! She said yes!! And the rain held off the entire time we were shooting! It was a little cold, but definitely the perfect proposal to start the 2023 season! 😍 Congratulations Zach and Megan!!

I'll have a second post coming later with some adorable couples shots from the session, but I think these family and kid shots are pretty great too! 😍 The snow looks deceiving, as it wasn't nearly as cold as it was last week! ☺️

Congrats to Nick and Megan! She said yes! I had so Congrats to Nick and Megan! She said yes! I had so many favorite photos from this session, so I'm posting it in two parts! The @bransonlanding is the perfect spot for a winter proposal! The light is great, the scenery is varied enough to get a good variety of photos, and there are very few people around!

I've done many proposals, but last week must have I've done many proposals, but last week must have been the week of firsts, because this was the first proposal I've had to go in blind! What I mean by that, is usually I have my proposal clients send me a photo of themselves so I know who I'm looking for, but I had a morning session at @dogwood_canyon this same day, and I never have cell signal there! So Alex sent me the selfie, but I didn't get it in time. I'm sure I looked like a weirdo watching random couples until Alex and Jamie showed up, but thankfully I was ready when he got down on one knee. Jamie said yes! Congrats you two! ☺️

While I've done dozens of proposals at @dogwood_ca While I've done dozens of proposals at @dogwood_canyon, this was the first one I've gotten to do at the stables! Nathan was able to coordinate with the wedding director at Dogwood Canyon and the staff was amazing helping us pull off this proposal without giving away the surprise! Congrats to Nathan and Martha! She said yes! If you like horses, I highly recommend planning your proposal before a horse tour! This was definitely one of my favorite proposals! ☺️
