As a photographer, I’ve had the privilege of capturing a wide range of moments—from grand weddings to quiet family gatherings. However, there is one experience that stands out as particularly special: photographing a proposal. The sheer joy, surprise, and love in these moments make them some of the most rewarding experiences in my career. Kevin sent me a DM on instagram a couple of months ago to shoot this proposal for him and his fiance, Katelyn. What he said that stuck out to me most, was that he would have proposed years ago in his living room if she would have let him. But he wanted it to be super special for her. The love was there, but he didn’t know where to begin with executing a seamless proposal. So that’s where we began working together! After location scouting together, lots of calls and texts, and disguising myself in a park, he finally asked the woman of his dreams to be with him forever. And of course she said yes!
We as photographers wear lots of hats, and sometimes that means helping plan a beautiful day even before we know the person we’re doing it for. For me it’s not about just snapping a photo. It’s about building relationships, and serving my clients whole heartedly so that they have a beautiful gallery to cherish for years to come. I was honored to be a part of this special moment for Katelyn and Kevin. They are some of the most down to earth people I’ve worked with and their love shines through every photo we took together. I hope you guys enjoy looking at these as much as I enjoyed taking them.
Kevin also surprised Katelyn with her family being there to witness it all! They even brought champagne to celebrate 😉
Whether it’s a grand gesture or a quiet, heartfelt moment at home, each proposal has its own unique charm and significance. Being a part of that story is always a privilege. Thank you both for allowing me to be a part of this one. Wishing you two a Happily Ever After, and happy wedding planning!
