Beach proposals will always hold a special place in my heart. My fiancé proposed to me with warm sand under our toes and crashing waves behind us and I wouldn’t have had it any other way. So, this adorable couple’s engagement on the beaches of Cabo San Lucas gets my heart a-beating like you wouldn’t believe. And with the lovely Sara Richardson there to capture it all, we can all swoon over the romance for as long as we please.
From Sara Richardson Photography… Geoff first contacted me back in January regarding his upcoming proposal to Val. He arrived here in Cabo days earlier than his soon to be fiance knew about so that we could finalize location and timing for the perfect proposal. Ivan from Esperanza was in on the surprise as well so when Geoff and Val arrived and asked for a table on the terrace he let them know that it was reserved for a private event but that he had a table available on the other side. At which point he led them down to a private cabana with rose petals and tiki torches. I approached them as the Esperanza Photographer and asked if I could take a few photos of them to which they were more than happy. I then asked them to move down towards the water to get a few more photos. Once they were in the perfect spot Geoff started talking to Val and telling her that they were not just there for dinner and you can see by the look on her face that she was figuring it out. Then he went down one knee and proposed. Val was not holding back the tears and honestly neither was I. After the proposal we took a few more portraits of the two of them together before the next surprise that Geoff had in store. Ivan came back over to the cabana to let theml know that a table had opened up on the terrace. So they made their way back over to the terraces. Little did she know that Geoff had organized their family friends to be waiting for them. The rest of the evening was spent laughing and talking about the amazing proposal that Geoff had just surprised Val with. What an incredibly beautiful occasion to be a part of.
