Mystery Couple's Engagement Moment Captured At Peddler's Village

LAHASKA, PA — A once-in-a-lifetime moment between lovers was captured on camera at Peddler's Village, but no one knew it at the time. They might still be unaware.

Eric Weiss, photographer for Better Living, was taking photos in Peddler's Village on Wednesday, Dec. 2, when it happened. Though he didn't realize it until later, he had caught a couple's engagement moment on a park bench in a composite photo.

Weiss explained how it happened in a Facebook message:

"I was doing a composite shot of this scene during a busy time. It can take a good 30 minutes of shooting to get all those sections free of people and edit a clear shot, and I only have about 15 minutes to get that sky before it goes black. At the time, I'm only focused on the spots that don't have people. While doing my edits, I discovered this couple and made a composite just for them. If they ever see this, I'd be happy to email it to them with my congratulations."

Since then, he's posted the photo to sites like Reddit and Instagram with the hopes of tracking down the mystery couple.
