surprise Proposals
plan the moment,
keep it secret.
You may be planning from another country, visiting Puerto Rico for the first time, or simply trying to figure out how to pull off the perfect surprise without giving anything away. That is where I come in.
I help you coordinate the location, timing, positioning, and little details so you know exactly where to be and what to do. When the moment happens, I stay discreet and capture the real reaction. Afterward, we transition into a romantic couples session while the excitement is still fresh.
how it works
 
1. WE PLAN THE DETAILS
 
We start with your date, vision, and location ideas. I’ll help you choose the best setting and timing for the moment you want.
 
 
2. YOU CHOOSE HOW it HAPPENS
 
Go fully discreet, with me hidden until the proposal, or plan a couples session and propose during it. We’ll choose what feels most natural.
 
 
3. I’M THERE BEFORE YOU ARRIVE
For discreet proposals, I arrive early and get into position. You’ll know exactly where to walk, stop, and propose.
 
 
4. WE CELEBRATE AFTER THE YES
After the surprise, we move into a romantic couples session so you can celebrate and get portraits while everything still feels fresh.

testimonials
 
“I contacted Thania for a surprise engagement in Puerto Rico while planning from Maryland. She helped with the logistics, scouted the location, and mapped out the best spot for the proposal. She was hidden in plain sight, and my fiancée never noticed her. The photos came out absolutely stunning, and I’m so glad I chose Thania.”

“Thania was so great. She photographed my surprise proposal, and my fiancée had no idea. The pictures turned out amazing, and Thania was super responsive and helpful. 10/10 would recommend!”

"Thania did an amazing job and went above and beyond. For our surprise proposal, she blended into the environment perfectly, made the experience fun, and delivered beautiful photos. Coordinating with her from another country was easy, and she was always quick to respond and reassuring. It was such a pleasure working with her."

FAQ
 
1. HOW DO WE KEEP THE PROPOSAL A SURPRISE?
Keeping the surprise is part of the magic! We'll coordinate everything beforehand, including the location, timing, and where I'll be positioned. I'll arrive early and blend into the surroundings so your partner won't suspect a thing. When the moment comes, you can focus entirely on them while I capture it all.
2. CAN YOU HELP ME CHOOSE THE PERFECT LOCATION?
Absolutely! Whether you're dreaming of a romantic beach proposal, lush tropical greenery, or the colorful streets of Old San Juan, I'll help you find a location that fits your vision. I'll also guide you on the best time of day for beautiful lighting.
3. HOW CAN I MAKE SURE MY PARTNER IS DRESSED FOR THE OCCASION WITHOUT SPOILING THE SURPRISE?
A little creativity goes a long way! One of the easiest tricks is to tell your partner you're going out for a romantic dinner or attending a special event. That way, they'll have a reason to dress up without suspecting a thing!
Another option is to plan a couples, family, or birthday photo session, with the proposal as the unexpected surprise.
My biggest tip? Dress for the occasion! The more thoughtfully you both dress, the more beautiful and timeless your photographs will feel.
And here's a little detail that's easy to overlook: the nails! Your partner will probably want to show off that beautiful new ring, so if they enjoy having their nails done, try to arrange a manicure beforehand. If that's not possible, you can even secretly bring a set of press-on nails for those close-up ring photos afterward.
Trust me, it's the little details that make a difference!
4. WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE PROPOSAL?
Once you've had a moment to celebrate and take everything in, we'll transition into a romantic couples session. It's the perfect opportunity to capture those first beautiful moments together as an engaged couple.
5. WHAT IF IT RAINS ON THE DAY OF OUR PROPOSAL?
Puerto Rico's tropical weather can be unpredictable! We'll keep an eye on the forecast leading up to your proposal and discuss possible alternatives if necessary. Depending on the circumstances, we can adjust the timing, explore a backup location, or discuss rescheduling. I am however down for a rainy shoot. <3
6. WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY PHOTOS, AND HOW ARE THEY DELIVERED?
You’ll receive a sneak peek within 24 hours, and your full edited gallery will be delivered within 3–4 business days. Your images will be sent through a private online gallery where you can easily view, download, and share them. You’ll receive high-resolution edited photographs along with a print release, so you can save and print your favorites whenever you’d like.
7. HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD I BOOK?
I recommend reaching out as soon as you have a date in mind, especially if you’re traveling to Puerto Rico. Booking early gives us more time to coordinate the details and secure your preferred date and time. That said, last-minute proposals are always welcome when availability allows.
ready to make it unforgettable?
Every love story deserves a moment worth remembering. Let's plan a surprise that's uniquely yours, and capture the beginning of your next chapter together.
