Sam + Adelia | Proposal! | Maine Proposal Photographer | Mackworth Island Proposal | Maine Engagement Photographer

This is Sam & Adelia! Sam got in touch with me and let me know that him and his girlfriend would be visiting Maine both to visit family and for the Yarmouth Clam Festival (duh), and he was hoping to not only propose to her on Mackworth Island but have me along to capture the action! I was totally on board… I’ve photographed one other proposal before and I was excited to be part of another! Proposals are a tricky thing — there’s LOTS of coordinating ahead of time since my plan is to be completely hidden and undetectable while the actual proposal is going down. Once it’s happened I give the couples a few minutes to excitedly celebrate and then I pop out and say “oh, hey, I’ve been here the whole time!” and then we take some official engagement portraits. 🙂 It’s such an awesome surprise, and it must be amazing to have these photos to look back on! This one went off without a hitch, so here’s some photos from the day (including some of the baby seal I spotted before they showed up). 🙂
