While traveling through California, Bailey wanted to plan the ultimate surprise for his soon to be fiancé – a heartfelt proposal on the coastline. When he reached out to me to help document the proposal, I knew we could make this moment unforgettable.
Bailey and I worked together behind the scenes to make sure every detail was just right! He wanted to propose on a cliff overlooking the ocean, and I knew that Montara State Beach would be the perfect location. This beach provided just enough privacy, while still capturing the dramatic beauty of the coastline. I guided Bailey on exactly where to stand for the proposal and how to position themselves for the best light.
As the two of them arrived at the picturesque overlook, Bailey led Morgan to the planned spot, pausing to take in the incredible ocean views. When Bailey got down on one knee, Morgan’s reaction was pure joy. The look on her face said it all – shock, happiness, and love all at the same time! The photos capture the raw emotion of the moment, with Morgan’s teary-eyed laughter and Bailey’s loving smile.
Photographing this proposal was an absolute dream. After the big “YES,” we spent time exploring the beach, capturing their first moments as an engaged couple. The ocean breeze and golden light made for the most romantic images, with the beach stretching endlessly behind them and waves crashing over the coastline.
It was such an honor to be part of Bailey’s plan and help bring his vision to life. If you’re planning a surprise proposal and want a photographer who will help you find the perfect location and capture the moment effortlessly, let’s chat! Whether it’s a dramatic coastal cliff or a sentimental spot that means the world to you, I’d love to document your love story authentically.
