The plan was for him to take his girlfriend onto the sand at a remote Oregon beach and propose to her, but he didn&#8217;t want her to know that I was there photographing the event. So I staged a fake beach shoot of a model where I looked like I was taking photos of the model, but I was really shooting right over her shoulder to the couple near the surf.<\/p>\n<p>As I saw the couple on the beach and the proposal happen, capturing their photos from a distance, I thought how amazing it was for me to do business with someone without ever meeting them, because the photos were a surprise for the bride on her wedding day. What a moment to remember!<\/p>\n<p>I love capturing great photos of people and events, but I love the creative opportunities our clients come up with even more.
