Dante’s Proposal to Jade | Palace of the Fine Arts Surprise Marriage Proposal Photographer

Dante must be one of the most organized and best prepared grooms-to-be ever! He had every little detail meticulously planned out, and somehow even managed to sneakily text us a “hi,” without Jade noticing, to let us know that he had arrived. We followed the couple around like paparazzi and then caught him popping the question at just the right place. Congrats Dante & Jade!

Dhanesh & Anu’s Surprise Proposal + Save the Date Photos | San Francisco Palace of Fine Arts Proposal Photographer

This is a special session for us. We were originally contacted by Anu’s sister to give Dhanesh and Anu a “save-the-date session” because this lovely couple is getting married this December in India. An hour before the session we got a call from Anu’s sister telling us there was a last-minute change of plan — Dhanesh was going to surprise Anu with a ring! We were sooo excited and rerouted to get this couple some roses 🙂 We told Anu for the first set of photos we wanted them to stand back to back with their eyes closed, and when Anu turned around and found out what was really going on, she was in complete shock. Love every single photo of her priceless facial expressions — let these photos speak for themselves…

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding Dhanesh and Anu! And thank you Tanu for making all these happen!
