Jack pulled off the ultimate surprise. Early one morning, he brought Chelsea aboard a private yacht—rented from Toronto Yachts—for what she thought was just a peaceful cruise through Toronto Harbour. With the city stretching out behind them and the light spilling softly over the water, he dropped to one knee… and everything changed.
As a Toronto engagement photographer, I’ve seen many creative proposals. However, there’s something especially magical about ones like this—no crowds, no distractions, just two people floating above the nerves and excitement of a brand-new chapter. Chelsea’s reaction? The kind every photographer hopes for: laughter, tears, and a moment of stunned, joyful disbelief. She said yes (of course), and I had the best seat in the house to capture it all.
From This Moment On
I love when I get to capture the start of a couple’s journey. Proposals are often overlooked in the bigger wedding picture, but they’re just as meaningful—and just as deserving of beautiful, lasting images.
The Significance of Proposals
Proposals mark the beginning of a new chapter in a couple's life. They are intimate moments filled with emotion. Capturing these moments can create lasting memories. The joy, the surprise, and the love shared during a proposal are unique.
If you’re planning your own engagement or wedding in the city and want a photographer who knows how to capture the real stuff—the quiet anticipation, the big reactions, and the in-between moments—I’d love to hear from you.

Thinking About Proposing (or Planning a Wedding) in Toronto?
Whether you're proposing on a boat, eloping at city hall, or throwing a full-blown party at your dream venue, your story deserves to be told in a way that feels personal and real.
From proposal shoots to wedding days and everything in between, I work with couples across Toronto to capture the real, unposed stuff that lasts.
Why Choose a Yacht for Your Proposal?
A yacht provides a unique backdrop for a proposal. The serene water, the gentle sway of the boat, and the stunning skyline of Toronto create an unforgettable atmosphere. It’s a private setting that allows couples to focus on each other without distractions. The beauty of the surroundings enhances the moment, making it even more special.
Tips for Planning Your Yacht Proposal
Choose the Right Time: Early morning or late afternoon offers the best light for photos. The golden hour can create a magical ambiance.
Plan the Details: Think about what you want to include. Flowers, champagne, or a special playlist can add a personal touch.
Hire a Photographer: Capture the moment with a professional. They can help you plan the perfect shots and ensure you don’t miss a thing.
Keep It a Surprise: The element of surprise can make the moment even more special. Plan everything without letting your partner in on the details.
Enjoy the Moment: Once you pop the question, take a moment to soak it all in. Celebrate your love and the journey ahead.
Capturing the Essence of Love
Every proposal tells a story. It’s not just about the engagement ring or the location. It’s about the love shared between two people. Capturing these moments is what I strive for as a photographer. I want to help couples remember their special day for years to come.
