Big Sur, California Coast Beach Proposal
Avi first contacted me when he graduated from dental school in NY. He had the ultimate surprise up his sleeve. He planned to propose to Neha his high school sweetheart during an upcoming road trip up the Big Sur, Hwy 1 coast. Neha is the planner in the relationship and is rarely surprised, we worked hard to maintain the illusion of a romantic dinner and walk. I stood by a bush on a cliff pretending to take photos of the nearby rabbits when they approached the designated Big Sur to overlook! I got to capture her saying yes! It was such a pleasure to meet this sweet couple and capture memories they will share with their children & grandchildren one day.
If you’re wondering what to do for your engagement photos—you’re not alone.
Most couples come in saying:
“We want something natural… but we have no idea where to start.”
The truth is, the best engagement sessions aren’t built around poses.
They’re built around experiences.
At Flora Gibson Photography, I approach engagement sessions like a quiet story unfolding—something you step into, not perform.
Here are ideas that will help your photos feel like you.
