Oh my gosh this was such an honor to be a part of. And it had me smiling all the way home! Taylor approached me to ask if I was able to be there when he proposed to his girlfriend of 3 years, Jamie. I was so happy to be available for him. She loves ice skating and he thought that would be a perfect way to show his love for her. A nice date night skating at the Pasadena Ice Skating Center and then dinner. She had no idea what was to come!
The plan was almost foiled when she said she didn’t really want to skate that night, and I would say a little more than a small amount of panic came across Taylor. Luckily with a little gentle persuasion they approached the ice. I was stationed on the other side of the rink talking with a young skaters mum and taking pictures of her little skater as a cover for what was to come. After a few circuits of the rink I could tell Taylor was nervous, and ahead of schedule he stopped her in front of me and got down on one knee.
I believe I captured her face well at this point, but I could not capture her exclamation of “TAYLOR” as he pulled out the box. She was so shocked and they both started to cry (sorry for letting that slip Taylor!) and the crowd went wild. Once they departed the ice, there were more congratulations from onlookers as we headed out to the street and on to the next location. A romantic dinner for two was set for Elements Kitchen in Pasadena, as well as a few more photo opportunities. I simply loved being a part of this really special day for them both and can’t wait to see what is next for them.

Hi Nicola-
What is the name of the song or artist who sings the song you put on our slideshow??? I have searched for it and no luck…and I LOVE IT!!! P.S. We are still getting amazing compliments from our proposal pics…you truly are an artist!!! 🙂
Thanks Jamie. I am ecstatic that you are still enjoying your proposal images, and the song! That part always takes me the longest time. I try and choose music that compliments the couple and the mood of the event. And that you love the song so much makes me glad that that time is well spent choosing the right one for you. The song is called Heaven Must Have Sent You and
Artist is Steve Morgan. Enjoy!
