Once you’ve decided to you’re ready to propose, it’s inevitable that you’ll be excited and anxious. After all, it’s a moment that you both will remember (and repeat the story of) for the rest of your lives. No matter how busy or big or chaotic a wedding maybe or feel, every big day is guaranteed to be filled with romance.
Keep your proposal simple
You don’t need a flash mob or billboard to get memorable proposal photos. “There’s been a real turn back to basics these days, which I actually prefer. Most of the guys I work with just want a raw simple beautiful moment in a beautiful location and have the proposal be about them and not a whole over-the-top thing. The beauty of the proposal is it’s totally about them, their love for each other and their commitment, not about friends and family,” says Ayush Parakh.
Go solo
Celebrating your engagement with friends and family is a must, but you may want to hold off including them until a few minutes afterward. We think it’s really nice to keep that moment intimate between the two of you. When the proposal shoot with a big group of family and friends, the group gets excited and jumps into the photo. They don’t realize they’ve messed up the photo you’ve planned for weeks or months. Instead, surprise her after the proposal. Sometimes you can do a double surprise with the proposal first and then reveal that your friends and family are there.
Make it romantic
It may seem obvious, but this is one tradition you really don’t want to skip out on if you’re having your proposal professionally photographed. Some guys these days don’t get down on their knee. It also makes great photos because if you’re standing you can’t tell you’re proposing! Our advice is to stay on your knee as long as possible. A proposal doesn’t happen every day and it’s classic and romantic to propose on your knee.
Think creative
With a bit of creativity, you can get amazing photos without having to hide your photographer in a nearby bush. “A lot of time’s I’ve done proposals where I’ve pretended it’s a regular photo shoot. The guy tells his girlfriend that he’s booked a photographer and we’ll spend a couple of hours together sometimes, and she doesn’t realize we’re scheming right in front of her! Other times I’m in plain site, but I just look like a tourist with a big camera,” says Ayush Parakh.
Venue

The venue is an essential part because if your partner didn’t like the place then she’ll feel uncomfortable. Check out Khejarla Fort that will give nice pictures.
