Napa Valley Candid Proposal Photography - Viader Winery5 years ago, I have experienced an explosion of calls for Candid Marriage Proposal Photography and many questions on where are the best proposal ideas, the best wineries and location backdrop to pop the question… The Napa Valley is such a romantic place for a couple retreat, many men take advantage of their get away here to plan their perfect proposal to remember, and I understand why!

This my favorite and most exciting photography session to plan. After we discuss our thoughts and intentions, I get a good idea of locations.  I then scout out the perfect spot, send photographs of potential locations to the groom-to-be, and he chooses where he wants to kneel down on one knee and propose.

On the predetermined date,  I feel a bit like a paparazzi, as I hide sometimes behind grapevines with just my humongous, long-zoom lens, sticking out between the leaves…. I am always able to capture beautiful emotions, private moment, so filled with excitement, joy and love.

As a photographer, it is an honor for me to be a part of the beginning of a couple’s special bond.  I love to be the witness of one of the couple’s most romantic moments in life.

Capturing Your Story is my Passion!
