Surprise Proposals

You may be surprised...(see what I did there? haha), but what I enjoy most about shooting surprise proposals is planning them with you. This is one of the biggest moments of your life and I want to be as involved in making it special as I can be. We will discuss everything from location ideas, timing based on your proposal plan, backstories, contingency plans, and even the direction you need to face before dropping the knee to ensure you get the moment captured perfectly! This is a prequel to your wedding and should be treated just as if not more serious.

Traditional Engagement Sessions

Let me start by congratulating you both on finding true love and your person. Now it's time for me to tell your story visually with my camera. Leading up to your session we will discuss locations that are special to you (i.e. where you met), ideal session times for the best possible lighting conditions, outfits, and photo inspiration and preferences to ensure your engagement session is uniquely captured perfectly!

Victor & Vanessa - The Penguin Proposal

"Stop searching, you found your photographer! If you are looking for someone to capture the perfect moment, be professional and personable, and genuinely take an interest in a project, Marcus is the person for the job! He was flexible in jumping on a call to discuss the details, punctual on the day of and respectful of the needs of his customer. He also has a terrific positive attitude and finds ways to make his customers smile and position them for a great photo. He made our day so special. Wish Marcus all the success!"

Sam & Nate - Engagement At The Diner

"Kind, professional, and timely. Marcus is officiant to work with and really listened to what we wanted with our photos. Helped us feel very natural in our poses and actions. We’re so grateful for the experience we had with him."
