A Joyful Surprise Engagement Photoshoot, surrounded by Loved Ones in Howth, Dublin, Ireland.


I recently had the pleasure of capturing an incredibly heartwarming surprise proposal in the charming coastal town of Howth, Dublin, Ireland. I want to share with you the delightful story of this couple's engagement, filled with anticipation, love and lots of laughter.


As we prepared for this surprise engagement photoshoot in Howth, Dublin, Ireland, I found myself exchanging numerous zoom calls and heartfelt emails with the groom-to-be and his amazing soon to be Mother in Law! Their enthusiasm was infectious, and it was evident that this was going to be an unforgettable experience for both him and his soon to be fiancé.


They traveled all the way from America to Ireland for a vacation with his family and to attend the Bruce Springsteen concert. But little did the bride-to-be know that something even more extraordinary awaited her on this vacation.


Nestled along Ireland's rugged coastline, Howth provided the perfect backdrop for this romantic moment. As a photographer, I couldn't help but feel the excitement build in my heart, knowing that something extraordinary was about to unfold against this stunning backdrop!


The groom-to-be and their loving family's had meticulously orchestrated every aspect of this surprise proposal. Not only did he plan to ask for his partner's hand in marriage, but he also went above and beyond by flying her parents over as a surprise to celebrate this momentous occasion. The love and dedication poured into this surprise proposal photoshoot was truly awe-inspiring.

We disguised the session as a family session of the groom's family and while we waited for the others to arrive, I asked the gorgeous couple could we do some quick couple's portraits while we waited.


As the couple strolled along the stunning cliffs of Howth, the groom-to-be seized the opportunity to ask for his partner's hand in marriage. With my camera ready, I captured the raw emotions that filled the air when he got down on one knee. The sheer surprise and joy on her face were priceless, and the moment was pure magic.


We had the most beautiful engagement session and were greeted by the grooms family to celebrate after!


Soon after, there were tears of joy when they were joined by the bride to be's parents! A complete shock and joy to her!. Knowing that their love had brought their families together, laughter, hugs, and joy filled the air as they celebrated the start of their lifelong journey together.


As a photographer, I have the privilege of capturing love stories, and this surprise proposal in Howth, Ireland, was one that will forever remain in my heart. It was a joy to witness the meticulous planning, the overwhelming happiness, and the love that enveloped this special moment. Love has the power to create beautiful memories that last a lifetime, and for this couple, their journey began with a magical surprise proposal in the charming setting of Howth, Dublin, Ireland.
