I have more questions, and how can I book with you?

I'll send you a booking link and you can reserve online and pay with secure credit card. As soon as I receive your payment, I'll send you confirmation and loads of useful information.
could i arrange a more elaborate set up, such as bunches of flowers, a red carpet, candles or a marry me sign?
Sure! More elaborate setups are possible in privatized locations like restaurants or event venues.
what if it rains?
We use umbrellas! Or, if we can, and your schedule allows, we can try to shift the time or date to see if we can beat the rain. I will say though that the rain is romantic, so don't worry too much about the rain! I will be checking in with you 5 days before your proposal with a weather update.
do you offer free planning services, such as giving me location ideas?
I'll send you some location ideas when you contact me, and the most scenic locations are on this page as well. You may also read this article I wrote The Ultimate Guide to Your Epic Surprise Proposal in Nice for proposal ideas & questions.
Location and logistical planning are part of my full service custom experience package. Once your date is secured and you're officially my client, we'll go over every detail so that you feel confident and excited about your surprise proposal!
I focus 100% of my energy on capturing high-end still photography. However, I’m happy to help you find a discreet spot to set up a phone/tripod to record the moment, and I can recommend local videographers if you're looking for a full production.
do you offer video?
could i order champagne or a bouquet of flowers?
Absolutely! You can order a bottle of fine French champagne & 2 glasses and for flowers, you'll tell me your budget, which flowers you love & I'll bring the bouquet with me!
