Fortunately, Austin isn't a very rainy city, and whenever it does rain, it usually passes quickly. Most proposal locations can be altered to be under an overhang, inside or just outside with umbrellas and we just roll with the punches.

Austin is a fairly casual town, but depending on the location you choose, you could have the chance to dress up super nice.

Clothing should be of the same formality and accent the location. Meaning, it's hard to make sense of someone dressed in sneakers with someone in formal attire at a park. Consider dressing up a little extra in whatever way is comfortable for you two. If your partner is a bougie or wants to be fancy, choose a location that matches this!

Proposals with me are simple and smooth. Over emails, I'll guide you towards a good spot and even offer a few scenario/cover stories to tell your partner.

In large public areas like parks, nature centers, art museums, etc.you run the risk of someone walking in front of us potentially ruining the photos. In this case, I highly recommend having an exact location pre-planned and set up or hiring a planner to take the decorating and logistics off your hands. I can make recommendations, just ask!

After I capture the moment she said yes (or just lots of crying and nodding), we'll move into a few cute, casual portraits. A mini, mini engagement session if you will. I'll pose, direct, laugh with you, and hustle my booty off (potentially tripping on things) to show off the new bling and a couple of photos with your friends & family if they're joining!

In total, we spend around 30-60 minutes together during the proposal itself. Not to mention the countless back and forth with all the planning and strategizing!

You can exchange or return an engagement ring but at the end of the day, we can't recreate this exact moment. Choose a photographer whose images speak to you with excellent reviews.

I've photographed over 40 proposals and through rain, sun or night I've always delivered amazing work. You'll want someone who has experience in any situation and can properly capture the moment with ease.

If that's me, great! If not, I hope you find your photographer and are happy with the quality of their work.

I would be happy to send you a list of planners who specialize in proposals and small affairs. They would be happy to talk about adding candles, flowers and champagne to make the moment super special for your significant other.
