Gentleman-If you are looking for a perfect spot to propose, look no further! 

What a beautiful summer day at Brys Estate Winery in Traverse City, Michigan.

Brys Estate is nested on Old Mission Peninsula-one of my absolute favorites for getting a glass of wine and enjoying a charcuterie board amongst the vines.

Namic had contacted me in hopes of planning the perfect surprise proposal for his now fiancé. I was so impressed with his attention to every detail!

 

I conversed with the friendly staff of Brys Estate and photographed delicious wine while awaiting their arrival.

I had my eye on the entrance and in pulled their car! You see, beforehand I get the car make, color, model, etc to be sure I don't start photographing the wrong couple! My heart started thumping as well, I get SUPER excited for proposals and have to hold back my own happy dance!

I continued to pretend to be photographing wine, staff members, and floral arrangements while Namic and Sarah made there way onto the bridge. I felt like quite the stealthy sneak master at this point and began to snap away discreetly.

 

As soon as Sarah said YES! I leapt out of hiding and finished photographing their special first engaged moments. 

Their happiness and joy were absolutely beautiful! I gave them a few moments to enjoy their wine and spread the good cheer to family and friends! 

We then decided to take a few stunning images of the happy couple around the gorgeous Estate.

The Lavender was AMAZING! If you haven't been-GO! Make it a Summer must do!
