Romantic Deep Cove Proposal

January 5, 2019

One of the best parts of being a photographer is getting to witness moments of pure love between two people. Truly, it’s a humbling experience to be asked to be a part of these special moments and help create lasting memories.

Sure, I shoot a lot of weddings, and I dabble in family portraiture, but did you know that I also photograph engagements? And the best ones… those are the ones when she has absolutely no idea what she’s walking into.

Moments like the ones below give purpose to what I do. I mean, just looking at these photos you can see the love and adoration this beautiful couple shares.

The perfect proposal

Every part of this proposal was carefully planned. From the phone calls organizing my presence, to the champagne and flower petal runway – it was perfect.

And seeing the emotions on Kiki’s face as she realized what was happening – the moment the words on the sign truly dawned on her. Magic!

And I was able to capture this moment for this lovely couple.

What I loved about this engagement

I got to say, I’m a sucker for a good story. But I also love the transformative power that a location can bring to a special moment like an engagement.

In this case, the engagement took place at Deep Cove, which of course is a fabulous location in the summer. But absolutely picturesque any time of year.

The right mood can change any location from commonplace to special. And it has nothing to do with the location, and everything to do with what the couple brings to the setting.
