Surprise Proposal Photoshoot at Secret Garden, Seoul | Sidiaz Photography
Surprise Proposal Photoshoot in Seoul
Henry from Singapore contacted me to plan his surprise proposal photoshoot in Seoul. We discussed over various location options keeping in mind the beautiful autumn colors in Seoul. Secret Garden at Changdeokgung palace stood out specifically due to its beautiful scenery and views. We finalized that we all (Henry and his girlfriend and me as a photographer) will be in the same group tour (which we booked in advance) and I will be secretly following the couple and wait for the proposal signal. We also discussed about the other general stuff like how to avoid the crowd while being in the group tour and how to find a perfect spot. :)
See the proposal and engagement photos of this lovely couple at the Secret Garden.
Henry and I communicated over WhatsApp as the tour started. I was waiting in line at the back of the crowd and kept following the couple like a ghost through this tour, haha :D At some point, I was worried that I might get noticed by Henry's girlfriend, lol.
The secret garden tour should be pre-booked and everyone has to follow a tour guide, so we need to be very quick in taking the photos while also avoiding the crowd of roughly 30 people. The secret garden tour is 90 min long and we can take beautiful photos along our way after the initial proposal.
See the photos below when Henry proposed her :)
The photos I took while following the couple & pretending to look like a nature photographer ^^
The whole tour route was filled with autumn colors and scenic views. Here are more shots of the couple after the proposal :)
After the tour finished, we also took some photos at the Changdeokgung Palace. See the engaged couple's photos below:
I can safely say that this was the most happiest couple and I loved doing their proposal photography at the secret garden. The autumn colors were just breathtaking. :)
If you are looking for some locations to plan your perfect proposal in Seoul, here are my recommendations:
Royal Palaces (Gyeongbokgung Palace, Changdeokgung Palace, etc.)
Namsan Park (beautiful in Autumn)
Haneul Sky Park in Spring or Winters :)
Yeouido Park near E-Land Cruise or Nature Scenery
Nami Island
Bukchon Hanok Village
