$600 Australian Proposal Photoshoot ✨

One of the BIGGEST requirements I had for my fiancé is having a photographer present to capture the memories - and I’m so glad I have these precious moments to look back on. 🥹😍

If you’re looking for a photographer for your pre-wedding shoot or for a special occasion, I highly recommend Jessica Abby Photography!

Due to our budget flights multiple delays, my fiance missed proposing at the original location which was due during sunset, and Jessica was so understanding and didn’t charge him at all - even though she already drove an hour.

She also helped him source for another spot at the last minute. Of course, I had no idea what was going on but she was so sweet and professional on the day itself, completely directing everything as I was swept away in the moment.

And she also included a slideshow and personalised website link with the images. I absolutely love ❤️

The pictures speak for themselves!!

Take this as is your sign to have an overseas proposal 💁‍♀️ and if you have any wedding venue reccs pls share with me too!!

Xoxo,

Chloe

From personal experience, spots like the Botanic Gardens offer a stunning backdrop that feels intimate yet iconic. When your plans hit unexpected snags—like flight delays affecting timing—a photographer who is flexible and understanding can help pivot to new locations without stress. Jessica Abby Photography not only captured beautiful candid moments but also took the lead in directing the shoot when I was caught up in the emotions of the moment. This helped me feel relaxed and truly present. Including extras like a personalized slideshow and website makes sharing these memories effortless and adds a special touch. If you’re dreaming of a proposal overseas or in Melbourne, consider these tips: pick a location that holds meaning for you both, hire a photographer who understands your vision and can adapt, and enjoy the moment knowing those memories are being beautifully preserved. Don’t hesitate to ask for recommendations on wedding venues and photographers who bring professionalism with heart.

bruh, real talk.
proposal photos are (hell to the no) NOT optional. don’t let your big moment turn into a “wish we captured it” story you bring up every year. save this, get a pro you trust, and make your proposal so romantic she has to say YES 😭😭 1) you only get one shot 🙂‍↕️ no replays. no “eh wait can

Why I requested a private proposal 😅💍
I told him from the start - no crowds, no fancy setups, no audience please. If I’m crying, it’s not going to be in front of all my family and friends with a hidden photographer catching it all 😂 So he kept it simple. In our hotel room - just us, a handwritten letter, and him asking me to marry
