There’s nothing quite like the moment you ask the love of your life to spend forever with you. The butterflies, the anticipation, the overwhelming joy when they say “yes”—it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience that deserves to be preserved in stunning detail. We specialize in turning your marriage proposal into a beautifully documented memory you will both treasure for years to come. From secret planning to candid captures, we’re here to ensure every second of your big moment shines as brightly as your love.


Why Hire a Proposal Photographer?

Planning a proposal is no small feat—finding the perfect spot, crafting the right words, and keeping it all a surprise takes effort. Adding a professional photographer to the mix elevates the experience to a whole new level (and she’ll be so happy you thought to have it photographed!). Imagine reliving the exact second your partner’s face lights up with shock and happiness, or sharing those raw, emotional shots with family and friends. A photographer doesn’t just snap pictures; we tell your love story through every moment, tear, and smile. Plus, with us handling the photos, you can focus on what matters most—popping the question and soaking in the moment.

We’ve helped soon-to-be grooms plan and capture their dream proposals, and we’d love to do the same for you. Whether you’re dreaming of a grand gesture or an intimate exchange, our expertise ensures your vision comes to life—complete with breathtaking images you’ll frame, share, and pass down for generations.


Unforgettable Proposal Locations in Indianapolis

Indianapolis is brimming with romantic settings that make for picture-perfect proposals. Here are some of our favorite spots to inspire your big moment—all ideal for stunning photography:


• The Canal Walk at Sunset: Picture a peaceful stroll along the water as the sky turns golden and pink. Pop the question on a quiet bridge or by the canal’s edge, with the downtown skyline as your backdrop.

• Holcomb Gardens at Butler University: Tucked away on Butler’s campus, this hidden gem offers lush greenery, charming stone bridges, and serene water features. It’s a fairytale setting that’s perfect for a private, nature-inspired proposal, with plenty of angles for us to shoot those magical “yes” moments.

• Monument Circle: For a bold, iconic proposal, there’s nothing like the heart of Indy. Propose beneath the towering Soldiers & Sailors Monument with the city buzzing around you. We’ll blend into the crowd, snapping candid shots as your love takes center stage against this historic landmark.

• Newfields (Indianapolis Museum of Art): With its sprawling gardens, elegant architecture, and the famous LOVE sculpture, Newfields is a photographer’s dream. Propose amid blooming flowers or by the historic Lilly House for a timeless, romantic vibe. (Note: A $50 permit fee applies, but the results are worth every penny.)

• Eagle Creek Park: Calling all nature lovers! This expansive park offers secluded trails, waterfront views, and peaceful woods—perfect for an adventurous or laid-back proposal. We’ll scout the best spot ahead of time, ensuring jaw-dropping photos with Indy’s natural beauty as the frame.

• Bottleworks District: For a modern, retro-chic vibe, this trendy spot blends historic charm with urban flair. Propose under the string lights or in front of the Bottleworks Hotel’s sleek facade. It’s ideal for couples who want a stylish, city-inspired shoot with a touch of nostalgia.


No matter where you choose, we’ll work with you to scout the location, plan the timing, and capture every detail discreetly—your partner won’t suspect a thing until the ring is out and the tears are flowing!
