Sechrestphotos received a booking from the mother of the man who was going to propose. Michael’s mom told me she booked the session for Michael’s brother. OK we said, When and Where?
It turned out Michael and Christina had been dating for a few years. Both were established in their careers and been living in Oceanside.
Michael told us his plan was to take Christina up to the lifeguard station at Buccaneer’s Beach where they had their first kiss.
We would be at the beach inconspicuously, and then, of course, capture the whole proposal and take some engagement photos.
The challenge for us; taking the pictures from the ground to the height of the lifeguard station. Our job is also to make the shoot part of their experience by making sure the couple is comfortable with us and we are able to capture the emotion of this INCREDIBLY ROMANTIC MOMENT in their lives.
Watch their slide show, I think we nailed it!
