It’s the moment when you & your significant other will decide to spend the rest of your lives together, aside from your wedding day. It’s a type of magic and surprise that only happens once, and having images taken during that flash of anticipation, emotion and excitement should be entrusted to someone who knows exactly how to document it, in all its beauty and romance. So the only thing you are focused on is the moment she or he says, YES! If that doesn’t convince you, here are 5 great reasons to hire a professional engagement photographer for your surprise proposal!
1. What happens in a moment, can be held onto for a lifetime
A proposal is but a mere few seconds of euphoric high but it will also be the moment you go from dating, to future husband/wife. Professional photos offer a beautiful tangible keepsake for this life-changing moment. Having this part of your story captured will mean being able to relive it for years to come and reminisce on what a beautiful surprise it was for you both!
“It was the most romantic moment of my life, it felt unreal”
2. Your perfectly envisioned moment brought to life
A professional photographer’s trained eye is unlike anything that could be captured by a bystander, or on an iPhone. Your photographer will become your partner in crime and help offer advice on location and timing before the day, and will foresee movements, lighting, anticipating every moment to ensure your forever moment, is perfectly captured.
“Every day we have laughed together and grown together to support one another. We’ve been together for 8 years and love each other more and more every day. Today was at the top”
