What you can expect from a surprise proposal photoshoot with me
Planning a surprise proposal in Japan can feel like a big task, but I’m here to make it easy and unforgettable. From choosing the perfect location to capturing every magical moment, I’ll guide you through the entire process. Whether you’re imagining a quiet proposal on a scenic mountainside or a vibrant moment in the heart of the city, I’ll ensure everything is seamless and stress-free. Here’s what to expect when you work with me:
1. Choosing the Perfect Location and Time
The first step is finding the perfect spot and timing for your proposal. I’ll help you explore a range of breathtaking locations that align with your vision. From the serene beaches of Okinawa to the majestic views of Mount Fuji, every option will be carefully tailored to your preferences. We’ll also discuss the ideal time of day to ensure the best lighting and a private atmosphere, giving your proposal a romantic and magical vibe. Together, we’ll craft the perfect setting for your special moment.
2. Adding Special Touches
To make your proposal even more unforgettable, I offer additional services to personalize your experience. Whether it’s arranging a stunning bouquet of flowers, organizing private transportation, helping you book kimonos, or including a videographer to capture the moment in motion, every detail can be customized to fit your unique love story. These thoughtful touches elevate the experience and show just how much this moment means to both of you.
3. Arriving Early to Prepare
On the day of your proposal, I’ll arrive 30 minutes to an hour early to ensure everything is perfectly set up. I’ll scout the location, check the lighting, and make any last-minute adjustments to guarantee your proposal is picture-perfect. During this time, I’ll also provide you with clear instructions and updates so you can feel confident that everything is ready to go. My goal is to remove any stress and let you focus on the excitement of the moment.
4. Staying Connected
To make sure the proposal goes smoothly, communication is key. I’ll ask you to share a selfie and your live location via WhatsApp. This allows us to coordinate seamlessly and ensures that we’re perfectly in sync. Whether you’re navigating a bustling city or a secluded countryside, this step makes sure there’s no confusion about where to meet or when the proposal will happen. It’s all about keeping things easy and stress-free for you.
5. Capturing the Proposal Discreetly
When the big moment arrives, I’ll position myself discreetly to capture every heartfelt expression without disrupting the intimacy of the proposal. My approach is to document the moment naturally and authentically, allowing you and your partner to fully immerse yourselves in the experience. The photos will reflect the genuine joy and emotion of your love story, creating memories you’ll treasure forever.
6. Giving You Time to Celebrate
After you pop the question, I’ll step back and give you and your partner some private time to savor the magic of the moment. This is your time to laugh, cry, and simply enjoy being together. When you’re ready, we’ll move forward with the next part of the session, ensuring you feel relaxed and in the moment every step of the way.
7. A Portrait Session to Remember
Next, we’ll create a stunning portrait session to celebrate your engagement. Whether you prefer candid shots that capture your natural chemistry or posed photos that highlight your connection, I’ll guide you every step of the way. Even if you’re not comfortable in front of the camera, I’ll help you feel confident and at ease, resulting in photos that truly reflect your love and happiness.
8. Exploring More Locations (Optional)
Depending on the package you choose, we can expand the session to include additional locations. From serene gardens to vibrant cityscapes, I’ll handle the logistics and transportation so you can focus on enjoying the day. This is your chance to capture a variety of beautiful backdrops, adding depth and richness to your engagement story.
9. Same-Day Edits
To help you share the excitement with your friends and family, I’ll provide 2-3 edited photos on the same day. These photos are perfect for announcing your engagement on social media or sharing privately with loved ones. It’s my way of ensuring you can spread the joy right away while you’re still basking in the glow of the moment.
10. Your Full Gallery
Within 3-4 days, you’ll receive an online gallery via Pictime containing all your photos. The gallery includes high-resolution images perfect for printing and web-optimized versions ideal for sharing online. With easy access to your photos, you’ll be able to relive every magical moment and share your story with everyone who matters to you.
