Proposals are always SO exciting. Honestly, they’re probably the category of photography that gets me the most sweaty and shaky with love & excitement!!! And this time around it was pumped up to another level, because the girl getting proposed to was someone I actually knew!
I used to work with Alyssa at Woodstocks Pizza in San Luis Obispo back in college - so she followed along my transition into professional photography from the beginning. Her now fiance, Antonio, reached out to me telling me about how much she loved my work - so he took note way back then and contacted me when it was time to propose. Impressive! ;)
He told her he wanted to have a date day with her - & took her to get her nails done, cooked her a nice dinner, and brought her out to their favorite winery (Chamisal Vineyards) to have a glass of wine + watch the sunset with a few of their friends. Apparently this was a pretty normal thing because she didn’t expect anything.
Then he proposed to her while sitting in front of one of their favorite winery views. :)
It was freakin’ perfect, & i’m so excited for these two. Congrats, future Mr. & Mrs. Maragliotti! <3
