Wintertime Lady Bird Lake Boardwalk Proposal

For Nicola & Adriana, we needed to nail a specific location (“somewhere on the boardwalk” is really vague) pre-scout this location to make sure it was still good, draw up a diagram using Google Maps and THEN hike 2 miles from my car just to get to the good spot.

For every proposal, I don’t just show up and take pretty photos. I’m guiding you from the first email all the way through the last and final delivery. I tell you where to go, when to show up, and what to say to get your partner in the right spot.

Nicola and Adriana were originally scheduled for exactly at sunset, but because they ended up running late and the way the boardwalk is situated, we missed all the gorgeous Golden Hour.

Situations like this are why I don’t offer “short packages” for proposals. Imagine trying to get dressed for dinner, ready and out the door and through rush hour traffic to get downtown before sunset. It just doesn’t happen. (Trust me, I’m a girl.)
