The Moment You’ll Never Forget — Captured Perfectly by The Regeti’s
You’ve found the one. You’ve picked the ring. Now all that’s left is asking the biggest question of your life: “Will you marry me?”
Whether you’re planning to propose on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, at sunset in Old Town Alexandria, or tucked away on a quiet vineyard in Leesburg — one thing is certain: you’ll want every second captured beautifully and discreetly. That’s where The Regeti’s come in.
For over two decades, Amy and Srinu Regeti have been the go-to photographers for couples ready to take the next step — specializing in South Asian, fusion, and multicultural celebrations throughout Washington DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia. But before the big wedding day comes one of the most unforgettable chapters: the proposal.
Why Choose The Regeti’s for Your Proposal or Engagement Session
There are plenty of photographers, but few who understand the heart behind this moment like we do.
When you work with The Regeti’s, you’re not just hiring photographers — you’re bringing on a husband-and-wife team who have been exactly where you are. We know how much thought, excitement, and nerves go into this day — and how to make it effortless for you.
Here’s what makes our approach different:
- Two Angles, One Vision
We cover every proposal together. That means two photographers capturing every emotion from different perspectives — the setup, the surprise, the reaction, and the joy that follows. - Naturally Undetectable
As a couple ourselves, we blend right in. Whether we’re pretending to be tourists, guests, or simply out on a stroll — no one suspects a thing. That allows us to document every detail without giving away your big moment. - A Seamless Experience from “Yes!” to “I Do.”
Many of our proposal clients become our wedding couples. And when they do, we gift them the full cost of their proposal session toward their wedding photography package — a little thank-you for trusting us with your story from the very beginning. - Tailored Packages for Every Vision
Whether you want a 30-minute hidden capture or a fully curated engagement session afterward, our proposal rate card is designed to fit your vision, location, and timeline.
Proposal Spots We Love Across the DMV
From iconic landmarks to private estates, we’ve photographed proposals everywhere. Some of our favorite backdrops include:
- The National Mall and Lincoln Memorial (Washington, DC)
- Salamander Resort in Middleburg, VA
- Georgetown Waterfront and Dumbarton Oaks
- Old Town Alexandria’s cobblestone alleys
- Brookside Gardens (Maryland)
- The Wharf and National Harbor
No matter where your story begins, we’ll help you plan the timing, lighting, and logistics — so all you have to worry about is remembering your words.

Every proposal is different — some are planned months ahead, others just days. But the common thread? The way she looks at you the moment she says “yes.” That’s the image you’ll want to relive forever — and it’s the one we promise to deliver.
The Regeti’s Promise: You’ll Never Regret Choosing Us
We’ve spent our careers capturing stories across the world, and every proposal reminds us why we do what we do. It’s the beginning of everything — the moment life shifts.
So if you’re planning to propose — whether it’s in DC, Maryland, Virginia, or halfway across the globe — know this:
We’re not just ready.
We’re passport ready.
And if you decide to book us for your wedding afterward? Your proposal session is on us.
Because one of the best decisions you’ll ever make — aside from the person standing in front of you —
will be choosing The Regeti’s.
