My twin sister's proposal...

So my sister was proposed to last Saturday night and I got to shoot some photo's considering the groom-to-be put in some seriously major effort constructing this sign to ask her. He signalled his mate to turn the sign on at the right moment. I hid during the actual proposal and magically appeared (even though it was pitch black) to grab a few images...

This was on Long Reef Head on the Northern Beaches of Sydney at 930pm so it was totally pitch black. Not the most amazing images ever but a very different shoot for me!

How bloody romantic is that?

Good on him. I hope she said yes.

One of those times when the image, not the image quality, is the point. (Not that there's anything wrong with the image quality! :-)

Ain't that sweet. And who says romance is dead.

Sure beats sending her a TXT.
