Yasthil and Priyal surprise proposal shoot - Camps Bay

Last Saturday evening I got a call from Dan, who is the events Coordinator at The  Bay Hotel here in Cape Town. She was in a little bit of a hurry to get a photographer for the next day, because her client wanted someone to capture his proposal the next day, on Camps Bay beach. Dan and the staff from The Bay Hotel set up a little special spot on the beach where Yasthil was going to propose to his girlfriend Priyal. There was a few special photos of the couple printed out, and hanged up under an umbrella....a trip down memory lane for Priyal to look at when she got to the spot.

I was sitting a few meters away from the special picnic spot on the beach, pretending to be a tourist with a big camera on the beach. As soon as they were approaching the picnic spot, I started snapping away, making sure I don’t want to miss a moment. Everything went according to plan….

After Priyal said yes, and took a few sips of champagne, we did a quick couple shoot on the beach. Was very cool to share this special moment with the couple and to capture this special moment for them forever to look back on.
