Capturing the real "YES" moment!
Have you considered arranging a Surprise Proposal for your partner and having the moment beautifully captured in the romantic Cotswolds, Historic Oxford or The magnificent Blenheim Palace?
These special moments are not often photographed and recorded, they are truly wonderful moments to capture of real surprise, tears and joy.
Everybody's proposal is different, very personal & it's your story, so why not record the moment to tell for many years to come?
As I am a full time Documentary style Wedding Photographer, this is a perfect style to capture the real
"they said YES" moment in a discreet, thoughtful & emotive way.
I will work with you on ideas of how to set this up, in a secret way, so the real momment is captured and not in a staged way
Some ideas of the coverage you will receive:
- I will work with you on ideas of how to set this up, in a secret way, so the real moment is captured and not in a staged way
- discuss with you a suitable location & time
- capture the 'Yes" moment
- optional half bottle of Champagne & glasses supplied, so you can celebrate immediately afterwards.
- spend an hour with you capturing your first moments as an engaged couple.
- all high resolution images edited and available to download following your engagement
If you are considering asking your partner to marry you, in the beautiful Cotswolds, at the majestic Blenheim Palaceor even on a Cornish beach!
Please get in touch, I would love to photograph your suprise proposal!

Surprise Proposal at the Harry Potter Tree, Blenheim Palace, Oxfordshire

"I hired Neil to (secretly!) tocapture my surprise proposal to my partner at Blenheim Palace & couldn’t be happier with the results - Neil captured the moment brilliantly & was a lot of help in the build up, advising of good spots and things to consider when making the proposal (e.g. how busy each location was likely to be). Neil arrived a while earlier than me and my partner, which put my mind at rest and allowed him to get into a good spot to take the pictures. The pictures themselves are fantastic and are exactly what I was looking for - Neil was very subtle so my partner didn’t suspect a thing, meaning we can see her genuine response to the proposal in the pictures. We spent some time after the proposal walking around the grounds to get a nice array of different pictures and Neil clearly put a lot of thought into how this would work/which locations and lighting etc would make for the best pictures. He was also responsive to our requests and made us feel very comfortable throughout the experience.
I’m really pleased that I found Neil - my fiancé and I have a set of pictures that are very special to us and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.
