 Proposal Photo Planning & Tips

💍✨ Proposal Photo Planning & Tips ✨💍

Ready to pop the question and capture that unforgettable moment? Here’s how to make sure your proposal photos are as perfect as your love story!


  1. Choose a Meaningful Location: Whether it’s a scenic overlook at Monocle Mountain or the romantic waves of Malibu Beach, pick a spot that holds significance or one that will create a stunning backdrop. 🌊🏞️

    2. Lighting is Key: The golden hour (an hour after sunrise or before sunset) is ideal for that dreamy, soft glow. If you’re going for a nighttime proposal, make sure the area is well-lit for clear, romantic shots. ☀️🌙


    3.  Coordinate with Your Photographer: Share your plan and vision with your photographer so they can find the best hiding spots or angles to capture the surprise and raw emotion.

    4. Dress the Part: Pick an outfit you feel amazing in, but also consider the location’s vibe. You’ll want to complement the surroundings                    while still feeling confident and comfortable.



4 Practice & Prep: If possible, rehearse where and how you’ll kneel to make sure you both fit well into the frame. And don’t forget to get the ring ready for its big close-up! 💍✨
