Harjot & Zeenia | Palace of Fine Arts Surprise Engagement

Though they’ve been together for seven years and are technically already engaged, Harjot knew he was missing something: a proper proposal for his future wife. After shopping for wedding outfits in the East Bay, the two went over to the Palace of Fine Arts for a walk under the rotunda and around the lagoon, then made their way over to the tree that has become such a popular spot for photos. Harjot got down on one knee, gave the proposal Zeenia deserved, and presented her with a beautiful ring. I loved the thoughtfulness that went into this, and seeing the pure happiness on both of their faces was perfect. Congrats to Harjot & Zeenia!

Joey & Patty | Point Reyes Cypress Tree Tunnel Surprise Engagement Proposal

My second favorite thing about being a photographer, right after getting to witness life’s happy moments for amazing couples, is constantly visiting beautiful new places. The Cypress Tree Tunnel at the Point Reyes National Seashore has been a sight I’ve been wanting to see for ages, so imagine my excitement when I heard from Joey!

When Joey and I talked, he wasn’t looking for suggestions or ideas… no, he knew the Cypress Tree Tunnel was going to be the spot. And for good reason — it’s incredible! [ read more … ]
