We’re starting with the exciting part – she said yes!
Now, to the story of this sweet couple. Meet Andreya & Cameron, who got engaged at the end of Rocky Point Pier in Port Moody almost two weeks ago now. Firstly, I have to say, that the setting here was impeccable. Not only was the scenery beautiful, but the magic in the air from the smoke of the recent fires cast a warm hazy glow on the water. Truly, it was breath-taking, and almost surreal in nature.
Before she said yes!
Before we start, a bit of background – Cameron had contacted me beforehand about capturing him proposing to Andreya. Not only was I over the moon ecstatic to be a part of this special moment for them, but I had to put on my sneaking shoes! I arrived extra early & tried to tuck myself into a corner on the pier where I wouldn’t be noticed. Cameron sent me a quick text when they arrived. And I waited as they strolled down the pier and made their way to the end. There was no mistaking their love.
Andreya held tight to Cameron’s hand, gazing up at him with a look of love in her eyes, entirely unaware that her whole world was about to stop for a few heart-pounding moments before everything changed. They reached the end of the pier & cuddled into each other, looking out over the water and the setting sun. I could see when Cameron leaned in and whispered words to Andreya. Then he carefully took both of her hands in his. He continued, and then slowly dropped to one knee. Andreya’s reaction was beyond touching. And of course, slowly but surely a few tears ran down her face. Shaking her head both yes and in disbelief – this moment was theirs.
She said yes!
What happened after?
After Cameron proposed and they were officially engaged, I introduced myself to the unsuspecting Andreya & we snuck off for a quick mini-engagement session in the park surrounding the pier. I absolutely loved our session!
Of course, the timing immediately after the proposal brought about such raw and intimate emotions & moments between these two. Now, I may have to shoot ALL of my engagement sessions right after they become engaged – haha! Seriously though, it was incredible to be a part of. Watching Andreya overcome by what just happened, to see her authentic love for Cameron, and their engagement brought tears to my eyes.
That said, I want to extend a huge congratulations to you two on your engagement, your new house, and your upcoming move to a new town. Here’s to your new fresh start together! I wish you both all the best. Thank you for having me be a part of the start of this next chapter of your lives.
