Proposal Photo Shoot – Non to Cake: Island, Ocean & a Beautiful Yes
It all started like a normal couple photo session. Non messaged me in advance, and we discussed the plan – just like I described in my article about surprise proposals, this style keeps the surprise real while letting the girl look her best. Cake was prepared for a photo shoot, but had no idea what was coming.
We met on the beach and began with what looked like a regular love story session. I helped guide them through natural movements and posing — walking, hugging, laughing. One thing I really loved was how well their outfits matched: his blue-patterned shirt echoed the light blue and white details of her dress. They looked perfect together on camera.
After the beach, we returned to the hotel where they changed outfits. The plan was to use the room’s balcony view and the rooftop restaurant. Since the hotel is located on a small island, the viewpoints were stunning. After a few indoor shots, we headed out to the cliffs.
With the endless ocean behind them, Non dropped to one knee and proposed. Cake was shocked, emotional, and overjoyed. Tears, smiles, hugs — and we captured a few final portraits in that new, engaged energy.
This session is a great example of how proposal photography can be natural, stylish, and emotionally real. I'm so happy I got to be part of their story.
That's it, the photos are over... The End :)

Engaged Dimas for capturing the moments for our (surprise) proposal and photoshoot in KSM, we are very pleased with the results. He offered tips on posing and the pictures turned out nice and authentic. It was a good conversation from discussing on the location for the proposal shoot and other locations for photoshoot.

I booked Dimas for a photoshoot for our engagement. He was incredibly supportive both in the preparation and on the day of the engagement, always ready with advice. The shoot itself was a lot of fun, thanks to Dimas\'s relaxed and open nature. The results are beautiful, and the moments captured will stay with us for a lifetime.

I used him for a proposal and he did such an amazing job. Our pictures came out absolutely perfect. He was so easy to communicate with and completely works for you instead of just saying how things are going to be. He's funny, takes his time and is completely entertaining when taking pictures. I would recommend him 10/10 to anyone. He was just amazing!

Hello everyone! We planned a photo shoot in advance before arriving, there was a proposal of marriage!) Dimas is just a "fire" person, an amazing photographer from God! He selected the options for the arrangement, a beautiful background!) He was able to win over the child, although the child does not like to be photographed) And the most pleasant thing is the number of processed photos, we usually got about 10-20, and Dimas did almost all!) I'm glad that I chose him!) I recommend him to everyone!)
