Proposals


Whether you’re planning a surprise proposal or simply want this moment in your story to be remembered just as it unfolds, my approach to proposal photography focuses on honest emotion and the little details that make your relationship unique. I aim to capture the anticipation, the joy, and the real connection between you - so you can look back on these images and feel the moment all over again. If you’re looking for someone who documents proposals in a natural, storytelling way, I’m here to help preserve this chapter of your love story with care and intention.

“Katie was absolutely amazing when it came to our photos. She was very kind and very helpful when it came to our photoshoot. As someone who has never done any photoshoots along with my partner. She made everything feel natural and made us felt comfortable. Not only that she’s very good with secrets! I had gotten proposed recently and she knew since my partner had booked with her and was able to capture a special moments. I couldn’t thank you enough for that. If I can recommend her to other if you come down to Monterey and the coast, I suggest you take your photos with her!! Mind you her prices are VERY good and worth the price it is!”

“Katie was amazing. Not being from the area, she was willing to go out of her way and record videos of potential photo spots for my surprise proposal.


10/10 would recommend. And the photos came back quick and were beautiful.”

“We had a wonderful experience with our engagement photos. Katie was willing to help me plan the perfect proposal at the perfect spot and my fiancé was so surprised. I had not found anyone willing to help me plan it and find the perfect spot. Our photos turned out amazing and truly captured the best memories! I would highly recommend using her!"

“Katie was fantastic from start to finish! I reached out about a proposal shoot in Big Sur and she replied within a few hours, confirmed my date and time, and helped me plan everything. She gave me a few location options with examples of what to expect, plus a full guide on staying safe at the location and what to wear, including colors that would be appropriate for the scenery. She also walked me through exactly how to set up the proposal, since my fiancée didn't know about it.

On the day, Katie tracked the weather and moved our time up about 20 minutes to get ahead of the fog. She guided us to the perfect spot, and after the proposal she posed us and kept the whole shoot fun and relaxed, which helped a lot because I was really nervous.

She shared the photos us with really quickly and we're extremely happy with them. I'd highly recommend Katie, especially if you're not familiar with the area and want to plan an engagement shoot.”
