Marriage Proposal Photography

 Proposal photography is gaining popularity in the Washington DC metro area and, now more than ever, grooms-to-be (and brides-to-be!) are teaming up with professional wedding photographers to capture their marriage proposals.

The marriage proposal is such an important event, but between the nerves and excitement, moments can be missed. Having a professional photographer present to capture the surprise proposal will allow you to relive all the expressions, emotions and details of this happy event. Your professional photographs will be priceless when it comes to the countless times that you will retell your proposal story when you said “Yes!”

Aside from your wedding day, one of the greatest memories you will have is when you and your fiance decide to spend the rest of your lives together. Whether a private moment shared between the couple or surrounded by your friends and family, it’s all about capturing the proposal as it unfolds.

Wedding Photojournalism by Rodney Bailey works with you to determine the best timing for your photo session based on desired location and lighting as well as confirming the logistics of capturing your proposal. We start the photo shoot as you arrive to the planned location, interact (or not) based on the plans, and document all the reactions and emotions of your proposal. After your partner says “Yes”, we celebrate with a small photo session to capture the two of you on this wonderful and emotional occasion.

Already engaged? Couples can still benefit from teaming up with a professional photographer early on in their wedding planning process. From engagement photo sessions to photographing your engagement party, rehearsal dinner and wedding day, your photographer should be one of the first wedding pros you hire.
