The base rate for Paris surprise proposals is 500€. You can also add on a 35ml bottle of fine French champagne + 2 glasses to toast your engagement! You can also add on a beautiful engagement session the next day, which is a great way to celebrate your engagement. Your images will be ready in just 72 short hours, not sneak peaks, but the beautiful finished images.
The best location is the one that has the most meaning to you, and most choose the Eiffel Tower. There are a number of excellent views of this famous monument. If you don't require an Eiffel Tower view, the Tuileries Gardens, Luxembourg Gardens and Montmartre are also other lovely locations. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out!
Mornings are best if you’re morning people. If you’re up and about anyway sightseeing, this ensures your proposal is really unexpected. There's also fewer tourists around in the morning. I offer morning proposals from 7:00 am to 10:00 am. Evenings are best if you would like to go to dinner after your proposal to celebrate. It's also the best way to make sure your loved one is dressed up for their photos, as they know they’ll be going to dinner and will look great. I offer evening proposals from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm, depending on the season. I do not offer proposals at other times of the day due to the lighting being more harsh mid-day and I try to avoid as many tourists as possible.
You'll be walking along with your loved one, somewhere in Paris, usually with a view of the Eiffel Tower, very often you'll be going to dinner. You'll pass by the Eiffel Tower, for example on one of the many bridges of Paris, and stop to take a selfie. Then, you'll look your sweetheart in the eyes, say your words, and then get on one knee. I'll be there to capture it all. I will give you directions so you know exactly where to go and can look for me to verify that all is ready for your big moment. It's actually super simple!
My proposals are conducted in public places and not in restaurants, private balconies or rooftops. Those locations can be reserved through a professional planning company.
Yes, my main offering is the Surprise Proposal Collection, which is for 45 minutes. This is the moment when you get on one knee, I'll photograph your proposal and we'll do a mini session afterward for up to 45 minutes.
Then, the next day, in another beautiful Paris location, such as the Louvre, for example, we can have a beautiful 1-hour engagement session. Your fiancé(e) will love it and you'll even have engagement photos from Paris for your wedding Save-the-Date cards! WIN-WIN!
Your surprise proposal images are ready in just 72 HOURS! These aren't sneak peeks or proofs, they're the real deal, each image I capture of you, hand edited in my signature style with care, and uploaded in digital (JPG) format to an online gallery. In your online gallery, you can review your images and download those you love best. You can even download the entire gallery for an additional charge.

You're getting engaged in Paris, you're making the best decision, and I can't wait to capture these memories for you to have forever!
