Emily + Matt: Wagner Cove Proposal

A CENTRAL PARK PROPOSAL

Curious how to plan the best proposal? Look no further! Matt is proposal planner extraordinaire. I swear, I’ve never met a more thoughtful person. He legit thought of everything from flying her friends in to help set up to booking a photographer to finding the perfect spot in Central Park. I couldn’t wait to meet Matt and Emily because Matt seemed so cool. They were so cool and fun to hang out with! Definitely my kind of people.

Matt said he knew I was the right photographer when he saw my love for Friends because Emily also loves Friends. My quick responses via email and jumping on a call the same day sealed the deal. Photographers - make sure you’re responding same day at the absolute least. Matt first emailed me at 8AM, I emailed back within the hour and we jumped on a call a few hours later. By the time he signed the contract (around 5PM), he still hadn’t even received a response from the other photographers he emailed. I had not only done a phone call, but I sent a custom proposal! The early bird gets the worm is a true statement, so make sure to get ahead!

Brooke + Chris: Central Park Proposal

A WALK THROUGH CENTRAL PARK

All right all right! First blog post of 2019!! BROOKE AND CHRIS ARE ENGAGED!!! Ow ow! How freaking cute are they?! I’ve shot in Central Park a million and one times, but this was my first Central Park proposal and it was AMAZING! Soooo let me tell you about how awesome these two are - They had just arrived in New York after a redeye from CA (I mean who doesn’t do that?!) and Central Park was their first stop (other than swinging by their hotel to freshen up). Chris and I were texting back and forth ferociously trying to make a plan of action because it had rained and our original spot was pretty muddy. We were both hoping the rain wouldn’t cause Brooke to “cancel” (she had no idea why Chris REALLY wanted to go to Central Park) their walk in Central Park. It’s pretty dang hard surprising someone!! Chris couldn’t rush her without giving it away ANDDD he nearly lost it when she picked up his jacket where the ring was. Thankfully she didn’t feel it and was totally surprised when he got down on one knee on Gapstow Bridge. There was a crowd of people behind them taking selfies and another crowd behind me clapping and cheering. Talk about a great way to end 2018!

Chris - you nailed it! Brooke and Chris - you were both amazing and I’m so thankful I was able to be a part of such a special moment for you both!! Congrats!!!
