John got in touch with us about a month ago with his big idea to propose to his girlfriend at the end of their romantic trip to California. They flew in from Texas and spent a few days at wineries and finally ended up in Half Moon Bay at the Ritz Carlton. Allie kinda thought he would propose on this trip, but it was almost over, so she thought he had just forgotten to ask the question. Don’t you hate it when they just assume? 😂
These two cuties are actually high school sweethearts! And Allie is a fashion icon and blogger, which of course means she knew exactly what to do in front of the camera. I love those these images turned out.
He sure did a good job picking out that ring. It is totally heart eyes.
Photography tip for shooting proposals: Have your point of contact send you a selfie of them that day so you know who to look for. Yes, you can Instagram stalk them before, but hair styles change, beard get shaved, and sunglasses hide faces. That day-of selfie ensures you’re taking photos of the right person. Plus, it’s super easy for them to say, “Hey let’s take a selfie” and send it to you really quickly without being suspicious at all.
