A Perfect Proposal at Point Lookout Vineyards, Hendersonville, NC
Love was truly in the air this past summer at Point Lookout Vineyards in Hendersonville, NC! Capturing one of the sweetest proposals ever, set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Blue Ridge Mountains, was an absolute treasure for us. Point Lookout is one of our favorite spots to photograph, and it was the perfect location for this unforgettable moment between John and Brittney.
A Thoughtful Plan for a Perfect Moment
When John first reached out to us, his excitement was contagious! He knew the exact moment had come to ask Brittney the big question. He had the perfect day, place, and reason; all he needed was the "how." That’s where we came in! Proposals are some of our favorite events to capture because of the anticipation, the planning, and the pure emotion of the moment. We remember our own proposal like it was yesterday, and helping others create such a memory is something we hold close to our hearts.
A Sentimental Location with a Stunning View
John had his heart set on Point Lookout Vineyards and for a good reason. This was where he and Brittney had their first date, making the venue even more special. With stunning panoramic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, it was the perfect place to start their new chapter together. Even though Brittney’s family faced several flight cancellations from San Antonio, Texas, and thunderstorms were popping up in the area, everything worked out just in time. Brittney’s family made it, and the cloudy, diffused lighting set the perfect mood for the afternoon proposal.
The Proposal Unfolds: A Picture-Perfect Moment
Now, for the fun part—setting the scene! Being a husband-and-wife photography team, we can easily blend into the background. We casually sipped Point Lookout’s Sugarloaf White Wine while pretending to be just another couple enjoying the view. Our camera was cleverly hidden in a bag, waiting for the right moment. John guided Brittney to the overlook for a "selfie," and once we got the secret signal (a scratch on the back of his neck), we were ready. John got down on one knee, and we captured every angle, every emotion, and every ounce of joy in that moment.
A Heartwarming Yes and Mini Engagement Session
Brittney’s reaction was priceless—pure shock and surprise! She didn’t even notice that we were capturing the entire proposal. With an enthusiastic YES, the proposal was a success! Brittney’s family, who had been anxiously watching from the winery, came out to celebrate with her. To keep the celebration going, we jumped right into a Mini Engagement Session. We love doing these immediately after a proposal because the couple’s happiness and excitement are still so fresh, and you can see it on their faces in every photo!
It was the perfect day, the perfect proposal, and the perfect setting. We were honored to be a part of John and Brittney’s special day, and we’re thrilled to share some of our favorite moments. Congratulations to the happy couple!
