California Coast Surprise Proposal Photographer

The Big Question Deserves an Epic Moment!
You've got the ring, you've found your person, and now it's time to plan a moment neither of you will ever forget!
Whether you're popping the question on a secluded beach in Carmel, overlooking the rugged coastline of Pebble Beach, or somewhere completely unexpected, I'm here to help pull off the perfect surprise.
From finding that picture-perfect spot and creating a believable cover story to secretly capturing the big YES, I'll help with the details so you can focus on the moment.
And once the secret is out? We'll celebrate with some just-engaged photos!

You Bring the Ring, I'll Help With the Rest!
Planning a surprise proposal can be exciting, nerve-racking, and a little overwhelming. But don't worry, I've got your back!
I'm more than just the photographer hiding behind the camera. I'll help you put together a game plan so everything goes as smoothly as possible.
Here's how I help:
Finding the Perfect Spot: Location recommendations, lighting, timing, and backup options.
The Game Plan: Where I'll be positioned, where you'll stand, and how we'll coordinate.
Keeping It a Surprise: Help creating a believable cover story so your partner doesn't suspect a thing.
The Big Moment: Discreetly photographing the proposal, reactions, happy tears, and celebrations.
Just-Engaged Photos: A fun couples session afterward to celebrate your new engagement.

From Carmel to the California Coast & Beyond
There's something pretty incredible about proposing with the ocean as your backdrop!
From the beautiful beaches of Carmel-by-the-Sea and the dramatic coastline of Pebble Beach and 17-Mile Drive to the scenic shores of Monterey, Pacific Grove, Big Sur, and Bodega Bay, California is full of unforgettable places to pop the question.
Not planning a beach proposal? I'm always up for an adventure! I also photograph surprise proposals throughout Sacramento, the Bay Area, and Northern California.
Whether you have the perfect location in mind or need a little help finding one, we'll create something memorable together.
