When Matthew contacted me for a surprise proposal to his gorgeous girlfriend I have to say I was a little nervous. The beaches on the West Coast, especially the La Push beaches, have little to no cell service and I had never met either of them before. Surprise proposals can be tricky when you are trying to make sure that you find the right couple, that you catch the exact moment, and that the bride to be doesn’t realize what you’re doing and ruin the whole surprise! Luckily for us, everything happened without a hitch! I pretended to be a photo happy tourist, and Matt distracted Deniz with a selfie stick, and then quickly tucked it away as he pulled out a ring! Magic, pure magic.

“Pop the champagne, she’s changing her name!”
