Seoul Forest Surprise Proposal Photoshoot | Sidiaz Photography

Surprise proposal photoshoot at Seoul Forest

Abraham contacted me a week in advance for his proposal photoshoot before arriving in Korea.

"We land in Seoul May 2nd, and tentative dates for proposal are either May 4th or 5th. Hopefully the 4th though. What are your suggestions about the photo locations in Seoul?"

From here, we went to-and-fro about the proposal locations in Seoul, one of which was Seoul Forest. In the Seoul Forest, we had many options to do the proposal and one of the final two options were Gingko Tree Forest or this Bridge. We had to consider if the lighting was good at this time of the day and how much foot traffic we will have :) Finally, we decided for the bridge considering the sun light, crowd, and uniqueness of the place.

Also, we communicated about the live location sharing, arrival times, signal to photographer of when he is actually going to propose, while I will be around (across the bridge) casually capturing shots of the trees, LOL. :D

On the day of photoshoot, Abraham told me what they were wearing, so I can recognize them from a far distance. At the time of photoshoot, we started sharing our live locations, and then we walked towards the bridge which was luckily not very crowded at that time. I saw them casually walking away from me, while I captured some flower shots, hehe ^^

Then this happened. Abraham proposed her and she was blushing & smiling in happiness!! See the rest of their story in pictures..

This surprise proposal was so much fun and seeing them happy made me teary as well. hehe ^^

I just loved this sweet couple and their lovely bond. :)
