Petaluma Couples + Proposal Photographer

Some of the best moments in life start quietly. A walk along the coast. A glass of wine at sunset. A simple question that changes everything.

As a Petaluma Couples and Proposal Photographer, my goal is to create images that feel honest, timeless, and true to your relationship. Whether you are planning a surprise proposal or simply want photos that celebrate this season of your lives, I want you to feel completely present while I document the moments that matter most. The laughs, the connection, and the little in-between moments that make your story uniquely yours.

Couples sessions are relaxed, fun, and a little bit adventurous. We might wander through golden Sonoma County fields, walk along the cliffs of the Sonoma Coast, or explore a place that already holds meaning in your relationship.

If you are planning a proposal, don’t worry. I’ve got you. I’ll help with location ideas, timing, and a discreet game plan so the moment unfolds naturally and beautifully. You focus on the question. I’ll take care of the rest.

Planning Your Proposal

Planning a proposal can feel a little nerve wracking.

Good news. I’ve helped photograph quite a few of them and they always end the same way… with a very happy yes.

Here’s how it works.

Once you book, we’ll create a simple plan together. I’ll help with location ideas, timing (sunset is usually magic), and how to make the moment feel natural. I’ll arrive early and blend into the scene so your partner has no idea what’s about to happen. When the moment comes, I’ll capture the proposal itself, the reaction, the ring, and then we’ll spend a little time celebrating with some relaxed couple photos while the excitement is still fresh. It’s one of the most joyful things I get to photograph.

The Experience

Working together should feel easy. Here’s what you can expect:

Help choosing the perfect location
Guidance on timing and lighting (golden hour is magic)
Natural direction during the session so nothing feels awkward
A relaxed experience where you can just enjoy being together
First proofs delivered quickly so you can relive the moment right away
Beautifully edited images ready to share, print, and remember forever

Whether it’s a proposal or a couples session, my goal is the same. You show up. Have fun. Be yourselves. I’ll take care of the rest
