The Proposal

Thinking about popping the question? Well, I suggest hiring a professional photographer to record it? Here’s one I shot on a cool day in February on the Walnut Street Pedestrian Bridge in Chattanooga. And Victor left nothing to chance. He was super organized.

After making the connection, he called and texted many times to make sure I would be there! That’s one of the benefits of hiring a pro. I was on location on the bridge an hour before he got there! I shot some images of Chattanooga and tried to catch some birds as they flew past the bridge.

Victor had given a head’s up to both families and they approached from each side of the bridge just as he was kneeling in front of Liana! Just as I captured the moment, the families arrived. What a joyous occasion!

Of course everyone wanted their picture taken with the newly engaged couple. And everyone used their own smartphone or camera. The couple will end up with dozens and dozens (I delivered 203) of images both artistic and candid.

After that we walked to a few spots I knew (another advantage of hiring a pro) that would make great backgrounds for romantic and funny pix. And the families tagged along too! Liana has a married sister and a brother with a girlfriend, So I shot several couple shots along the way.
