After emails with Jose, I met this Mexican couple at Central Park's Bow Bridge "by chance," acting as a strolling park caricature artist, and "convinced" Jose to let me to draw their caricatures. I handed Daniela the art and her jaw dropped, and Jose dropped to one knee and she started crying, and there wasn't a dry eye in Central Park. Joggers, horses, cops – they all cried with joy too. Sorta…

She said, "Yes." I just know it was my caricature proposal drawing that put her over the top. Jose was also smart enough to hire photography "adventurer" Laura Pennace to record the moment. She did a great job, as the best shots here confirm.

"I had Joe do my “secret” proposal at Central Park – and it was amazing! He worked with me for a while prior to the actual engagement day, to make sure that the final caricature was exactly what I wanted. The day of, my fiancée didn’t expect anything once Joe came up to us asking us if we wanted a caricature. It was truly the perfect day!"
