The National Gallery London Surprise Proposal

Today has been amazing! I started with assisting the lovely Antonina Mamzenko on a shoot; Antonina was wonderful to work for and alongside. Her clients were so lovely. Then I met up with the hilarious Carla Thomas, a fellow wedding photographer, at the National Gallery in London. We had a great catch up over tea and cakes and it was as we were leaving the National Gallery that we heard a loud cheer from a nearby crowd in front of the Gallery.

They cheered because Yaw had just started his surprise proposal to Ekaete. He’d planned for their friends & family to hold up massive letters that spelt “MARRY ME”, had commissioned a videographer and a singer who played the guitar who all did their thing as he got down on his knees and produced the ring.

Ekaete was so overwhelmed with joy & love that she exclaimed: “YEEEEESSSSS!”

I showed the newly engaged couple these images and they loved them.

Ekaete & Yaw, congratulations on your oh-so-romantic proposal and now, start of your engagement! Carla & I are so chuffed that we got to witness it.

Right, off to e-mail these images to you.
