Are You The Woman Who Took A Picture Of This Couple’s Engagement At The NYC Marathon?

Desperately seeking this elusive photographer.
Marriage is a commitment to be in it for the long haul together, so it’s fitting that runner Joe Duarte proposed to his girlfriend Katie Mascenik during the New York City marathon. Mascenik had been waiting at mile 17 to cheer on Duarte, and was pleasantly surprised when he got on one knee and proposed to her in the middle of the race, before hundreds of people.
The proposal was so sweet that many of the strangers around the couple took notice, including one woman who was standing close enough to Mascenik and Duarte to snap a perfect picture of their magical moment. There is just one problem: after taking this shot, said mystery woman disappeared back into the crowd.
