Surprise Proposal shootings are back!

We are getting requests for surprise proposal photos again. This kind of photo is always a challenge because it is, in fact, a surprise and we need to be close without giving the impression that we are photographers. To be present in front of these kind reactions is a great gift for our work.

I can't remember exactly when was the first time I photographed a surprise marriage proposal. But I remember that as soon as I received the request, I loved the idea and days before the photos I was already anxious. I was a Secret Photographer for Proposal.

It was an idea that came naturally, to suggest being close to the scene as a tourist (and not as a photographer). Thus, the couple would position themselves in the place that I had previously indicated and the groom would ask me to take a picture of them with his phone.

I would readily accept and ask them to take a photo looking at each other. That was the "key" for the groom to get down on one knee and propose.

Over the years there have been more challenging situations than others, but the result is always surprising, and fortunately until today all requests have been accepted! :0)

If you are thinking of making a surprise proposal in any city in Italy or Europe in general we are at your disposal to discuss the details and choose the best scenarios with you and keep the occasion a surprise until the moment of unveiling.

Nicole & Jean - Engagement Session Toscana

Ho ricevuto il contatto di Nicole attraverso un amico fotografo, Leandro. Lei stava per sposarsi in Brasile e volevano fare le foto in Italia, dove sarebbe la luna di miele. Ho definito con Nicole i dettagli di quanto atteso per questo momento e abbiamo programmato un breve tour attraverso la Val d'Orcia, le Crete Senesi e, infine, Firenze.

Molto più che paesaggi incantevoli, questi sono stati momenti piacevoli e rilassati, che hanno prodotto alcune foto che possiamo vedere in questo slideshow. Grazie, Nicole e Jean! Congratulazioni e tanto amore!
