Joseph Turnage and Brandon Moore were posing for their engagement photos in New York’s Central Park with Brooklyn-based photographer Alisha Siegel when suddenly a sweaty blonde jogger in sunglasses and a tank top ran toward them. 

“Oh my god! Are you taking engagement photos? Let me get in one,” she said, according to what Siegel told People magazine.

The couple laughed and took a picture with the random, funny stranger. As the camera snapped, they slowly realized the woman was comedian Amy Schumer.

“You guys know I’m like reeeeeeal famous,” Schumer reportedly said to the couple as it dawned on them that one of the hottest comedians of the moment had just photobombed their engagement shoot.

“My face went totally blank and I said, ‘Oh my god! Amy! I love you!’ Needless to say I was pretty excited,” Siegel told People. “I think we were all in shock that it had actually happened. We were just doing our thing and taking pictures. Never in a million years would we think Amy Schumer would want to jump in a photo.”

Later, Schumer posted the photo on her Instagram with the caption: “beautiful engagement photo ruined by yours truly.” It appears the comedian has a penchant for photobombing couples, having pulled a similar stunt with Kim Kardashian and Kanye West at a red-carpet event last April.  

Turnage and Moore will wed this October in Manhattan.
