Your tattooed coffee connoisseur and Wookiee linguist with a set of chops that make Wolverine cry. Yup - totally a nerd!

As a parent myself, I understand the fears and worries that can come with trying to capture those precious moments with your little ones.

Too often we parents are so caught up in trying to capture those fleeting moments of genuine laughter, mischievous grins, and spontaneous adventures that define childhood, that we don't get to live in those moments with our children.

I'm here to make that process fun, stress-free, and oh-so-memorable. I'll be your family historian, capturing those candid, heartwarming moments while you simply enjoy being present with your family.

I've been in your shoes. I remember the day i proposed to my wife in 2005. I had the ring picked out, the location set, and I even was dressed in my USMC Dress Blues.

I had everything...everything except a photographer to capture the moment. If i had access to a DeLorean, the first thing i would do is go back and make sure i had a photographer for this moment. Because let's face it, your memory will only last so long.

When i'm your proposal photographer, these moments aren't "just photos" - they are ensured memories








hello there...i'm tj

TJ did a fantastic job for my proposal day. He even hid in the bushes to make sure he wasn't seen when I was popping the question. TJ was extremely flexible in agreeing to stay around after the proposal to take photos in different locations on the grounds of the property and also easily relocated to another location to take some pictures with family. - Nick Fusco

This is all about YOU! You have spent a lot of time planning for this moment. We have a quick chat to learn all about what you are cooking up for your proposal. Then we meet at the location so we can plan for the best angles for me and my team to capture the moment while remaining out of sight. 

If you are stuck on ideas to have the moment captured while keeping it a surprise, i can help plan that too!

I'll keep in touch right up to the day of the proposal to make sure things run smoothly. Then me and the team will arrive early to get ready to capture your moment.

Once you have proposed, take some time for just the two of you to take in all the emotions while my team and I capture all those genuine and authentic moments. Once you and your fiancé' are ready, we do a mini couples session where we take some photos of you, your fiancé and of course the ring! 

Once we have parted ways, you will have your images within 48hrs in a private online gallery ready for you to print, download, or share with your family and friends.

what time of day is best for a proposal?

You really can't bet the Golden Hour glow, or what you might have heard as Magic Hour. It's the hour before sunrise or sunset when the sun is putting out that awesome golden glow. It also means for the most part, we can use natural light and don't have to worry about setting up any external lighting. You can totally have a proposal at any time of day, but keep in mind the location and time. If you are proposing in the evening or early morning, make sure the locations has plenty of light. If you are proposing mid day when the sun is at it's harshest, make sure it's in a shaded location.
