The budget comes first
When the idea of a surprise proposal popped into your head, the first thing that came to mind was probably the engagement ring, and the look on your partner’s face, bursting with emotions. But, before going for your wonderful idea, note that the budget is the one that comes first. Adjust your finances to fit everything you need – from the most perfect ring to the setting (whether it is going to be outdoors or indoors), food, drinks, secret photographer, etc. After you have established that, it is time to start looking for a photographer!
Discuss the idea
When browsing for the perfect proposal photographer, you will probably already have an idea in mind about what you want to do and how you want to surprise your loved one. Naturally, the next step would be to talk to a few photographers and see if they understand your idea, and whether they can incorporate their style into it. Set your boundaries and expectations and make yourself clear so that there are no misunderstandings later in the process.
One thing that is advised to remember here is that before going any further, talk time frame with the photographer of your choice – it is advised to book them about a month and a half in advance, so have them check their calendar and see if they would be available.
Have a proposal route set in place
Are you thinking about taking your partner on a stroll through your favorite part of the park? Or maybe you’re taking them to a spot that means very much to the both of you. Either way, you would probably want to eat before or after that, and depending on the pan you have set in place, the proposal photographer will shadow you through the day or night to capture the most amazing moment of your life. Share the route with them and get them familiarized, maybe even walk the route together so the photographer could get a better sense of what you are after.
