Proposal & Special Occasion Photography
The biggest risk with a proposal is losing the moment: the partner spots the camera, the framing's off, or the nervous friend holding a phone has shaky hands. Across the beach, boat and villa-terrace proposals I've shot in Fethiye, that's the recurring problem: the setup is beautiful, but those few seconds of 'yes' end up undocumented or out of focus.
I scout the location in advance and work out a position and timing the partner won't notice; usually a long lens, coordinated ahead of time with whoever's planning the surprise. I shoot the lead-up and the reaction as much as the moment itself, and send a same-day preview of a handful of frames so you can share it that evening.

FAQ
About proposal shoots
How is the price worked out?+
It depends on location (beach, villa, boat), duration, and whether you need extra coordination such as decor, flowers or boat booking. Tell me your plan on WhatsApp and I can usually give you a clear price the same day.
How long does the shoot take?+
The proposal itself is usually a 1-1.5 hour window. I typically arrive 30-45 minutes early to get positioned, then shoot another 15-20 minutes of celebration afterward.
When do I get the photos?+
Same day: 5-10 quick-edited preview frames. The full, color-corrected set is delivered within 7-10 business days.
My partner has no idea. Won't they notice the photographer?+
Staying unnoticed is the whole point, so I scout the location beforehand and work from a long lens, blending in or positioned like any other passer-by. I coordinate timing, signals and route with whoever's planning it in advance, so the surprise stays intact.
