Proposal Testimonials

  • Lydia was fantastic and the photos of the surprise proposal she took were perfect! She was friendly, flexible, knowledgeable, quick to respond - all the above. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photography professional.

  • I hired Lydia to capture my surprise proposal to my girlfriend (now fiancé) as well as a day-of engagement shoot at a second location. She was extremely responsive and professional throughout the process and displayed a great deal of flexibility with date/time/location, which changed a few times leading up to the proposal. She was even able to accommodate a same day second location switch as the first location became impractical due to large crowds. The photographs were sensational. She captured all of the emotions of the proposal and was able to put together an amazing album of same-day engagement shoots. I would recommend Lydia to anyone looking to do a proposal or engagement shoot in Cape Cod. She is also very knowledgeable about the area and had some amazing recommendations for locations. Couldn't be happier with how the photographs turned out, and now my fiancé and I have memories captured that will last a lifetime.

  • I booked Lydia for a surprise engagement proposal. The pictures came out amazing, and truly captured the moment. Lydia was incredibly easy to work with, and helped me iron out day-of logistics. Turnaround time on the photos was extremely prompt. I would highly recommend Lydia!

  • I hired Lydia to capture my proposal to my fiance and it was a great choice! She is located in Cape Cod and was able to come over to Chatham Bars Inn to capture the moment. Outside of just taking photos, she helped me game plan a scenic beach location as well as a couple back ups, just in case. Her communication leading up to the proposal was perfect- letting me know exactly where she would be waiting. After the proposal, she had a few locations to do additional pictures and did an amazing job capturing an important day. Beyond that, she was quick to share our pictures (24 hours later, the full gallery was online and ready) so we could share with friends and family. 5 star experience- highly recommend.

  • Lydia was excellent! I was lucky enough to find Lydia on a google search for my last minute planning. My girlfriend and I had a trip planned to Cape Cod (Chatham area). I had planned on proposing, but did not have a exact place picked out since I had never been and did not have a photographer scheduled. I reached out to Lydia, she was quick to provide her availability and assisted in picking a good location for the proposal. She took a ton of great high quality photos and promptly sent them within a day or two of taking them. She's good at blending in too for a surprise!

FAQ’s

  • Most sessions take place on the beach with no hiding spot. Since this is the came, I arrive about 10 minutes before our designated time and pretend to be taking pictures of the beach, waves, wildlife, sunset etc.

  • Turnaround time 2 days (or sooner!)

  • There are three different packages available. The first package includes coverage of the question only (about 2-3 minutes). The second package includes the question and then 10-15 minutes of additional photos. The third option has an added album and wall art.

  • Yes! The middle package is best suited for friends and/or family members who are there for the surprise.

  • If possible, we can move the session date and/or time, OR I have some one along to hold an umbrella.

  • The sooner the better— weekends book up first, and every evening in the summer gets filled. However, I always try to accommodate a last minute session.
