I Cannot Imagine What This Feels Like...

Introducing, Robert & Keisha...to date I have yet to view, or hear of a marriage proposal as original as Robert's. Their proposal has received over ONE HUNDRED MILLION HITS ONLINE!

:::::::HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!::::::::

Robert & Keisha's story as told by renown photographer,

Ross Oscar Knight :

At the end of April (2007) I had the privilege to shoot the engagement of Robert Gray, Jr. and Keisha Williams.

Robert and Keisha met four years ago at a surprise birthday party for a mutual friend. Two months later Keisha received anonymous flowers with a subtle message attached. It was an additional month before Robert revealed himself as her secret admirer. Robert is a native of Atlanta and Keisha hails from LaGrange,
GA.

This past February Robert contacted me to talk about his engagement plans. We met at a Starbucks in Southwest
Atlanta. The meeting lasted nearly an hour because Robert was so excited to tell me all about what he had been planning for a year. The surprise engagement was to take place at the Ritz Carlton in Buckhead, Georgia. He even had a name for the the proposal ‘Remember the Ritz’ and an email address!!

Robert had arranged for 10 rooms (on different floors) at the hotel to be reserved. The rooms were to be filled with family and friends reading scriptures, roses that had been laced with gold, and unlimited candles!

On the day of the engagement, I started shooting at 4 PM and ended at 12 AM (8 hours!). There is so much more to explain but I wouldn’t do much justice. My suggestion - pop a bag of popcorn, pull out a box of tissues, and find a comfortable seat. This will be the most elaborate proposal you have ever seen.

The lengths Robert went to:
To save money for a proposal that required ten hotel rooms, 400 roses flown in from South Africa, dozens of candles and a personal photographer, Gray rented out his home for a year and moved in with his sister. When asked why he went to such lengths to propose, Robert said, "It was truly a vision from God." Essence.com

It's not over...watch Robert's sacrificing and meticulous planning come together, as they Remember the Ritz

This young lady's wrist was BROKEN after the school's brutish security guard twisted her arm behind her back because SHE DROPPED BIRTHDAY CAKE, and didn't clean it to his satisfaction. She is 16 y/o.

This is the press conference--the audio is shaky, but it stabilizes

You better recognize the truth...the ugly truth-RACISM is America's pink elephant in the living room. LET'S TALK ABOUT IT, and stop ignoring it until something detrimental happens!
