I do a lot of surprise proposals, however this one was a surprise to me. I was already doing a photoshoot in Big Sur, when I glanced over to this beautiful moment. My client wanted to watch the proposal so we figured this would be a good opportunity to capture a few photos for them.
Abby & I met at the Glen Oaks Lodge in Big Sur, CA. She followed me a few miles down the road to Pfeiffer Beach, just a mile south of Pfeiffer State Park. It’s a sharp right from the highway 1, and then a long meander through a damp redwood filled gulch with creeks and redwoods that go on for a decent stretch. Eventually you arrive at the pay booth and find parking. We walked down to the beach, where we were greeted by the beautiful scenery, large waves, pristine sand, and a golden hour and sunset that took us in awe. I wanted Abby’s photoshoot to capture the dramatic landscape and to be able to show her somewhere iconic and memorable. Each and every photoshoot is a chance to set the perfect atmosphere for the client, and to give them an experience they won’t forget, alongside pictures to last a lifetime. Here are some favorites!
