Big Sur Proposal Photographer

This Big Sur Surprise Proposal occurred in the morning, which I loved! Big Sur is so beautiful and peaceful in the morning. There’s no one around and all you can hear is the sound of the waves crashing on the shore, the wind, and the birds chirping welcoming the new day. It was seriously better than perfect. This proposal was romantic, intimate, and completely private. So much so that we had the whole entire beach to ourselves. So, a quick tip for anyone planning a Big Sur proposal: consider proposing in the morning!! Plus, can we talk about the lovely, glowy light that we achieved on the beach!? It made for beautiful portraits on the beach with this newly engaged couple!

How did you two meet?

We met in San Francisco! Our first date was at a wine bar downtown at The Hidden Vine.

When did you know she was the one!?

I knew Sabrina was the one when we went on our long-weekend trip to Carmel.
