Do You Know These Two?

nyc proposalPhotographer Sherri Jackson was taking photos during the NYC Marathon when she snapped this photo of a beautiful moment between a runner and a spectator. She didn't find out until afterward that she had actually taken a picture of a marriage proposal! Sherri wants the two to have the photo, but doesn't know who they are. Ellen wants to help her out. If you know who these two people are, write in and tell us!

next: Who's That Legend of Stage and Screen with Ellen?

You should post the photo and query on the NY Marathon website where the runners go to get their times and see pictures.. I'm sure someone may know who they are..

How did they find out it was a marriage proposal? If they had that information, how did they not get the identities from the person/people that offered up that info?

I'd bet dollars to donuts that the motivation by the photographer has more to do with getting her five minutes of fame than exuding selflessness. Just sayin.

How exciting! I really hope the couple is found and we all get to share in their story. Thanks to Sherri and Ellen for trying to locate the pair. Maybe Sherri can do their wedding photos.

I think once you find the couple you should bring them on the show with Sherri and have a nice little meet and greet. I'd love to see their reactions :)

I think it would be cool once you find them if you could have them and Sherri on the show together :-)

What a fabulous story & what a selfless thing for someone to do for someone else...it's refreshing to see that basic kindness is still alive and well in today's society. I hope someone is able to idedntify the couple!!
