Proposal photography FAQ
HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD i BOOK our proposal photography?
How do you stay discreet during the proposal so the surprise isn’t ruined?
how do we get the photos after the proposal?
I typically recommend booking proposal photography up to 3 months in advance to ensure the best availability. That said, I’ve successfully photographed proposals with just a few days' notice! All bookings are first-come, first-served, so don’t hesitate to reach out as soon as you have a date in mind!
There are a few strategies we’ll discuss during our initial phone call to ensure everything goes smoothly. But know that I’m a pro at staying in the background and capturing the moment without being noticed. I’ll work closely with you to create a seamless plan and give you clear cues along the way, so everything stays under wraps until the big moment!
All photos are delivered through an online gallery in high resolution, ready for printing and sharing. You'll receive a sneak peek of your best moments within 24 hours, and the full gallery will be ready within 3 weeks.
"It felt way more like meeting a friend at 5am to hang out and take pics all day, rather than bracing ourselves for hours of portraits and strained prolonged smiles. The photos themselves captured core memories in the most beautiful and effortless way and we get so much joy looking through them over and over."
- Mel & Sara
