Whether you are planning a surprise proposal on the breathtaking cliffs of the Causeway Coast, a romantic lakeside moment at Lough Erne, or an intimate gesture in the heart of Belfast, we will be there to discreetly capture every genuine smile, every tear of joy and every heartfelt yes. We have a 100% success rate of hearing yes, just in case you are feeling a little nervous.
Why Us
Why choose us for your proposal photography
We are Tommy and Laurene, a husband and wife team based in Lisburn. We have been photographing couples together since 2014, and we love being part of the moment it all begins.
Discreet and natural style
We can blend into the background so your partner never suspects a thing until the big reveal. Or you can simply tell your partner that you have arranged a couples photoshoot, and we can suggest the perfect time and place to propose.
Stunning locations across Northern Ireland
From Ballintoy Harbour to the city centre of Belfast, we know the best proposal spots for breathtaking backdrops.
Tailored planning support
We will help you plan the logistics, timing and perfect angles to make sure your proposal is photographed beautifully.
Emotional storytelling
More than just photos, we create a story of your proposal so you can relive the emotions for years to come.
Two photographers
You can choose to have both of us capture your proposal so nothing gets missed. It also lets us shoot from different angles and give you two different perspectives of the moment.

Real Proposals
Proposals we have photographed
Every proposal is different. Here are two of our favourites, both on the Causeway Coast.
John and Jo
John planned everything from Saudi Arabia and told Jo they were having a couples photoshoot as an early Christmas present. On a wild winter day at Ballintoy Harbour, with the wind and waves all around them, he dropped to one knee. Jo never suspected a thing.

Giovanni and Leaonie
They met by chance in Amsterdam and have now made their home in Northern Ireland. On their anniversary, Giovanni brought Leaonie to Ballintoy Harbour for what she thought was a couples photo session, and asked her to marry him against a backdrop of waves and cliffs.

Proposal photography, your questions answered
The things people ask us most when they are planning to pop the question.
Enquire Now See all our wedding FAQsHow much does proposal photography cost?
Every proposal is different, so we put together a quote around your plans, your location and whether you would like one or two photographers. Tell us about your idea using the form below and we will come back to you.
Will my partner know you are there?
Not unless you want them to. We can blend into the background so your partner never suspects a thing until the big reveal. Or you can tell your partner you have arranged a couples photoshoot, and we will suggest the perfect time and place to propose.
Can you help us choose where to propose?
Yes. We know the best proposal spots across Northern Ireland, from Ballintoy Harbour and Dunseverick Castle to Botanic Gardens in Belfast. If you have somewhere that means something to you both, we will help you make it work there instead.
Can we have one or two photographers?
You can choose either. With both of us there, nothing gets missed and you get the moment from two different angles.
What happens after the yes?
Once the question has been asked and answered, we can capture relaxed portraits of you both in a mini engagement shoot. Afterwards you receive a beautifully curated gallery of professional images to share and treasure.
What is the best time of day to propose?
About an hour before sunset, known as golden hour, gives the most beautiful light. A weekday also helps you avoid the crowds, especially at popular spots on the Causeway Coast.
What if the weather is bad?
We plan for the weather, not against it. We work out the timing and safe walking routes with you and keep backup spots in mind. John and Jo's winter proposal at Ballintoy Harbour happened in wind and passing rain, and it made the moment even more real.
