My heart to you is given:
Oh, do give yours to me;
We’ll lock them up together,
And throw away the key.

When Keith first told me about his proposal plan, I felt all giddy and excited! I’ve never seen an actual proposal. Let alone photograph it. This proposal, was of course, a secret to Sharon, her girlfriend of 14 years. The plan was very simple. All Keith needed is an engagement ring, bouquet of flowers, and a romantic and beautiful backdrop to propose… Boracay’s sunset.
I admit, I was a little busy focusing on my shots to make sure I captured their emotions but after he knelt in front of her, it hit me… I can feel the love and happiness exuding from them. :) They are from Hong Kong and Keith is speaking in Chinese, the only thing I understood were the words “Will you marry me?” and Sharon nodded. Yay!!! :)
Below are some of the moments I captured from this proposal. Enjoy and feel the love. ♥
Some of you may wonder why Sharon is wearing a cute wedding dress. What she knows is they are only having a fun love shoot in Boracay. So aside from the casual beach clothes, they also prepared a wedding dress (this is common from our Chinese clients).
Here we are together with the newly-engaged couple. ♥
I recently received an e-mail from them and they plan to get married in Okinawa, Japan next year. We are so happy for you guys! Best of luck and happy wedding planning! :)
