Dipal and Viraj | Surprise Proposal | Watergate Hotel | Washington DC

Dipal’s surprise proposal was secretly orchestrated by her sister and her fiance on the rooftop of the Watergate Hotel in Washington DC in partnership with Shauntel Smith who put the final touches on setting the scene. It was quaint and beautiful and totally expected it would seem.

Proposals for us are one of our favorites to cover because they give us an opportunity to build relationships and if the client later sets a date and chooses us to cover their wedding we offer the cost of their proposal coverage as a credit towards their future services. It’s a win-win!

A few other surprise proposals we have loved were Parth’s proposal to Ami as well as James’ proposal to Rita, an all-time favorite – so if you are considering a surprise wedding proposal reach out as we would love to help capture it all come into play!

It’s this simple.
Not everyone sees the beauty in the details anymore.

While many are shooting wider, faster, and flatter—we’re still here, focused on the quiet, meaningful, intentional moments. The kind that slow you down. The kind that last.

If muted, mass-produced wedding coverage isn’t your vibe—you’re in the right place.

We’d love to hear about your story, your vision, your details—and share a little of ours too.

It’s time to get focused, planning brides. 🎯
Let’s make sure nothing that matters gets missed.

Instead of just sending over pricing, we now require a quick Zoom call with Amy (that’s me!). Why? Because I want to hear your story, your needs, your vision—and from there, we’ll give you a custom flat-rate quote that’s worry-free and all-inclusive.

💡 Planning a multi-day event? No problem.
💡 Not sure how much coverage you'll need yet? That’s okay too.

We’ll provide one simple base price with a clear hourly rate if your celebration expands. No fluff, no upsells, no hidden fees. Just the confidence of knowing what it costs from the beginning.

📸 You get us—Amy & Srinu.
No associate shooters. No mystery team. The two of us are with you from start to finish. We don't just show up—we bring nearly 20 years of experience, cultural sensitivity, and a love for what we do right to your celebration.

You want to know who’s showing up.
And you don’t want to stress about timeline changes or coverage hours mid-planning.
We’ve photographed hundreds of weddings. We know how things shift, expand, and evolve—and we plan for it. This isn’t our first mandap. Or church. Or vineyard. 😉
