Two engaged partners kiss in bright light

Proposal

The moment, captured without being seen

The "yes" moment

Proposal

You’ve got a ring in your pocket and one chance to get it right. I’m there before you, already in place, invisible, and I photograph everything, from the first knee on the ground to the calls to your parents ten minutes later.

Trocadéro, Pont Bir-Hakeim, Montmartre at sunrise, the gardens of Palais-Royal: I know the hours when these places are still quiet. We choose together, based on your story and the time your partner will agree to go outside without asking questions.

How I stay invisible during the proposal is explained in this article.

How it works

  1. We talk

    You tell me your plan, the date, and whether your partner needs to stay in the dark.

  2. We pick the place and time

    I suggest two or three options based on light and crowds, with a covered backup plan.

  3. The big day

    I’m there before you and blend in with the visitors. You just do what you came to do.

  4. After

    The couple session flows right in once the tension has settled. Often the best part.

  5. Delivery

    Five images the next day for the announcement, full gallery within ten days.

I travel anywhere in Île-de-France, and elsewhere in France on request.

Frequently asked

How do you stay invisible?

I arrive twenty to thirty minutes before you and position myself at a distance with a telephoto lens, like any other visitor. We agree on a discreet signal so I know the moment is close.

What if it rains?

We decide together the evening before. Either we shift by an hour, or we switch to the covered backup location arranged at booking. That’s included, no extra charge.

Can we continue the session after the proposal?

That’s the plan: the 1 hour covers the proposal and the couple session that follows. It’s often the best part, because the tension has settled.

How far in advance should we book?

Three to four weeks on average. In high season, plan for closer to two months. If your date is soon, write to me anyway, there’s sometimes room.
