Proposal | Kira+Ryan | DUMBO, Brooklyn NYC
Surprise Proposals in NYC:
Planning a surprise proposal is no easy feat, especially when you’re envisioning the perfect shot. When Ryan, a Michigan native, reached out to me about capturing his proposal in the iconic Dumbo neighborhood in New York City, I knew it was going to be special!
A Last-Minute Proposal Adventure
Life often throws curveballs, and this proposal was no exception. Due to unexpected changes, Ryan and Kira’s NYC trip was almost canceled. But fate intervened, and a last-minute call at 7:25 am changed everything. Could I be ready to capture a proposal by 9 am? Absolutely!
The Magic of Dumbo
DUMBO, with its cobblestone streets, stunning architecture, and breathtaking views of the Manhattan skyline, is the perfect backdrop for a romantic proposal. We waited patiently for the golden hour light to cast its magic on the scene. The moment Ryan got down on one knee, Kira’s reaction was pure, unfiltered joy. It was a moment of pure magic that I was honored to capture.
Behind the Scenes of a Perfect Proposal
- Patience is key: Capturing a spontaneous moment requires a calm and patient approach.
- Quick thinking: Being prepared for unexpected changes is essential in photography.
- The right location: Choosing a location that reflects the couple’s story is crucial.
Congratulations to Kira and Ryan on their engagement! This proposal was truly one for the books.
