Why Now Is the Perfect Time

If you’re thinking about proposing soon, you’re not alone—holiday proposals are incredibly popular, and for good reason. Between family gatherings and a built-in sense of celebration, the season creates the perfect backdrop for a moment she’ll never forget.

As a luxury wedding photographer, I also photograph a lot of proposals and there is an increase in guys planning thoughtful, meaningful proposals this time of year. Many of them are nervous, excited, and not always sure where to start. That’s completely normal—and that’s exactly why planning ahead (and having a photographer ready) makes everything smoother.

Why Holiday Proposals Work So Well

The setting is already beautiful. Twinkling lights and decorate streets create instant atmosphere.

It’s a natural time for photos. Couples are already dressed up for events, family visits, or holiday outings—perfect for a surprise moment captured on camera.

It becomes part of your story. Every year, your proposal anniversary and the holidays overlap, making the season even more meaningful.

Why Hire a Photographer

A proposal happens in seconds. Having a photographer nearby means those reactions, emotions, and details won’t be missed. Whether you want something simple and private or a staged moment with family waiting afterward, I can help plan the best lighting, location, and timing so you can focus on the question.

No matter how, or when, the proposal happens, it will be joyful celebration of your love and future.
