I love my job and as a love junkie, I love weddings. But there is one occasion that many wedding photographers don’t get an opportunity to capture and that’s the point when the groom-to-be pops the question! David & Denise had dinner at the Plumed Horse in Saratoga, Ca where the restaurant had a very private and intimate setting for David to surprise Denise. As you’ll see, the room was tiny and if I had stuck my lens through the curtains the jig would have been up! I caught all the wonderful goodness that followed the answer of, “YES!” We spent some time at the Plumed Horse, then we went to downtown San Jose, Ca for Christmas in the Park. We got there after mid-might so they had turned out the lights. But we still had a great time! David & Denise, thanks for allowing me the opportunity to capture this special moment in your lives. I look forward to your wedding this July! Congratulations!!!

Behind this stained glass was where it all went down!
The restaurant had this cool Christmas tree hanging upside-down in the entry way.
These are the roses he gave her just before he asked & each rose meant something about her that he loves!
Here’s the other side of their special Champagne room.
I love this series where it’s starting to soak in…. David was super smooth and he had her really surprised







The Plumed Horse has an amazing wine cellar!
This was a quick fun shot as we left the Plumed Horse
