EnGAYged!! I am so honored to have been apart of planning and documenting this proposal. These two won a giveaway for a free couple session, and Lee ended up contacting me saying they’re planning on proposing to Haley, so this was just perfect. They are also Long Beach locals (+ vegans too, weird!), so it was perfect shooting their engagement session in Downtown Long Beach.

Haley had asked her mom years ago if she could someday have her grandmother’s ring, but her mom said no. Then when Lee asked Haley’s mom if they could propose with the grandmother’s ring, she said yes, which made this even more sweet! Also, Lee had a nearby hotel room booked and secretly packed overnight bags for them, then the next day, there was a surprise brunch planned. I loved everything about this. <3
