"Choosing Matt as our proposal photographer was one of the best decisions I ever made!!
His guidance and advice in the planning process were matched only by his kindness, relaxed energy and warmth during the shoot itself.
Matt helped us to create and preserve a moment that we will remember for the rest of our lives. Not to mention his fantastic photography skills!”

Why Couple's Trust Me With Their Big Moment
Stealthy Coverage, Real Emotions
A proposal is a special and intimate moment between the two of you. Something that shouldn’t be interrupted or distracted from by anything, especially a photographer.
I have a few tricks up my sleeve to go unnoticed (happy to share when we chat) and I have never given away the surprise.
After capturing the emotion of the moment (a big tip is to give your partner plenty of time to enjoy and digest what’s just happened), we’ll go on a little walk to document this exciting stage of your relationship with honest, creative and emotion-filled images.
Your Secret Proposal Sidekick
London is an incredible city to pop the question, with so many romantic locations from the iconic to the historic to hidden gems and beautiful parks.
As a London local who’s experienced over 300 proposals to date, I’m in the perfect position to help you plan this unforgettable moment, while removing most of the stress.
Whether you already have a solid plan in place or are visiting London for the first time from overseas with only a loose idea of a vibe, you’re in good hands.
Before your proposal, we’ll hop on a planning video call, allowing me to better understand your vision for your engagement. Together we’ll pick the perfect location for your proposal, run through tips and ideas and come up with a cover story to protect the surprise.

"I would give Matt 10 stars if I could!
My partner and I had the best time with Matt for our engagement and our photos look amazing!
Matt went out of his way to provide directions since I travelled from the US to London, he was open to hearing my ideas, had great suggestions, and provided encouraging words and calmed my anxiety (I was a nervous wreck). He guided me throughout the entire process and what I loved most was that he shared with me the importance of being present.
My partner was shocked and it could not have been a better experience. Matt was kind, cracked a few jokes to relax us, and gave perfect direction.
Thank you Matt! Hopefully, we will be utilizing your services again ;) “

Proposal Photos FAQs
Do you work with members of the LGBTQ+ community?
Of course, I do. I see and treat all of my couples the same. I have been honoured to capture the engagements of many amazing couples belonging to the LGBTQ+ community over the years.
What if I or my partner are uncomfortable in front of the camera?
You are not alone. Most people feel the same way and I’m no exception. I purposely keep my approach during proposal shoots relaxed and fun to make you feel at ease. Part of this is recognising that you’ve just shared this special and intimate moment together, and I want to give you the space to digest it. The proposal itself, I always photograph in secret.
How many proposals have you photographed?
Over the past 12 years, I’ve photographed over 300 proposals in London. Each one has been such a pleasure and joy to capture.
I got engaged myself a couple of years ago and it was fun being on the other side of the camera for once. The experience also helped me empathise more with what my clients are going through.
Will having a photographer ruin the surprise?
In capturing over 300 proposals, I have never (touch wood) been spotted by the proposee until the proposer waves me over to introduce me. The look of surprise on their faces once they realise this special moment has been captured is always a delight.
I blend into the background, usually playing tourist so that your fiancé won’t suspect a thing.
What happens if it rains?
I’ve written a helpful guide about a rainy day proposal.
How long after our proposal shoot will we receive our photos?
Within 2 days, I will provide some highlights from your proposal. You will then receive your full set of photos 2 weeks after your shoot in a private online gallery.
What would you recommend we wear?
Really, it’s up to you. The only advice I offer is to wear something that you feel comfortable in. For example, wear shoes that you’re happy to walk around in for a couple of hours and if it’s cold, wrap up warm. If you feel uncomfortable during the shoot, not only will it not be as fun, but it may also show in the photos.
Do you photograph proposal shoots outside of London?
Absolutely. Although the majority of proposals I photograph are in London, I do on occasion travel further afield (both within the UK and overseas). So if you would like to go on a little adventure and do your proposal outside of London, let me know :)
Please note that in these cases, I do charge extra to cover my expenses.
Can you recommend locations for my London Proposal?
As a London local, I can help you find the perfect fit for your proposal location. Before the big day, we’ll jump on a planning video call to identify the perfect location based on the vision you have for your proposal.
A lot of my couples are coming to London from overseas, many for the first time, and enjoy making the most of my insider knowledge.
