with Broken Arrow Sleigh Rides

A horse-drawn sleigh ride, snowy mountains, and a very good reason to celebrate.

This Deer Valley proposal brought together some of our favorite parts of winter in Park City, with a ride from Broken Arrow Sleigh Rides and time to enjoy being newly engaged.

We're Stefan and Leti, the husband and wife photography team behind Backcountry Portraits.

We live in Park City and have spent more than a decade skiing these mountains. Getting to photograph moments like this in a place we know so well is something we love about our work.

A winter proposal at Deer Valley

There was so much to photograph beyond the ring. Hugs with loved ones, big smiles beneath a plaid blanket in the sleigh, and the two of them taking it all in with snowy ski slopes behind them.

Their celebration also included a cozy dining setup inside a glass globe, with flowers and a personalized sign. Together, those little details made the day feel like their own.

That's something we love about making an experience part of your proposal. You have time to enjoy where you are and celebrate together, with photographs that tell the whole story.

Planning your own Park City proposal?

A sleigh ride is a lovely way to include the mountains in your winter proposal, whether you ski or not. Think about how you want the whole experience to feel, from where you'll ask to what you'd like to do afterward.

We can help you work through the location, timing, and photography so you feel prepared when the moment comes.
