Joey’s proposal to Vanessa was a huge surprise! He had made up a whole story about how I was photographing Vanessa’s sister, and they wanted to come hang out and watch, and get a family photo at the end.
Vanessa’s sister was “late,” so I asked if Joey and Vanessa wanted some couple photos! Vanessa didn’t suspect a thing.
These two were the cutest! Dressed in classic white, they were perfect in front of a backdrop of ocean and sand.
Effortlessly gorgeous, Vanessa looked great despite the wind! It was the windiest day of the year so far, but we found a respite in the trees before the beach.
In addition to some posed photos, we took some candid ones, too! Joey and Vanessa weren’t averse to getting their feet wet in the ocean, so they played in the waves for a bit, enjoying time together.
It’s clear to me that these two are perfect for each other! They have a lot of chemistry in front of the lens. You’ve got to be really comfortable with each other to get such beautiful results!
Little did she know, Joey was preparing to ask a special, life-altering question!
When he knelt down, and asked Vanessa to marry him, she was beyond shocked! Realizing that it was the best decision of her life, she said yes without hesitation!
She was so touched. Crying tears of joy, Vanessa completely forgot about my camera! Now, we have the best reaction ever in photos!
Soon, tears ebbed away into joy, and the two spent the rest of their session celebrating the exciting new stage they had just stepped into. Thanks for letting me document such an important milestone for you two!
