When Riley wanted to take Jamie for a hike to propose, she’d had a long day and didn’t want to go. He sweet-talked her into it, and with a little help from their dog, he popped the question at the top of Buzzard’s Roost.

The day of their October wedding was supposed to be bright and sunny, but in true Black Hills fashion, they ended up with a blizzard instead. Luckily, Jamie says their photographer Sandra went above and beyond to help make sure their wedding was perfect— and it was.
