Planning included · videos the same evening · free move for weather


How a surprise proposal works
Planning is included in every package. You tell us it is a surprise, we take it from there.



We pick the spot together
A bridge or a canal corner that works at your hour and stays calm enough.
You get a simple plan
Where to stand, what to say to get there, how we recognise you.
We hide in plain sight
To your partner we are a tourist with a camera.
The moment, then the two of you
We photograph the question and the reaction, then 30 to 40 minutes as a couple.

A real Amsterdam proposal
Rain, a pontoon and an umbrella
It was raining. He asked anyway, on a wooden pontoon over the canal, under a black umbrella, and our photographer photographed it from a few metres away like any other tourist.
Then came the ring, the laughing and the flowers. Rain is not a reason to move a proposal: it is often the reason the photos look like a film.
Where to propose in Amsterdam
Magere Brug
The classic. Best early in the morning, before the bridge fills.
A quiet Jordaan canal
More privacy, houseboats and flowers on the railings.
A canal pontoon
Low over the water, with the canal houses reflected behind you.
Keukenhof in spring
Among the tulips, half a day out of the city. Garden ticket needed.

★★★★★
“Contacting our photographer and setting up the appointment was very easy. She met us at the exact time and place, showed us the hidden alleys and helped us pose, since we didn’t really know what we were doing. We ended up with beautiful shots that will be displayed in our home for years to come.”

“Very easy to coordinate with even though we had never been to the city before. Everything from timing to payment to the actual day was smooth. I was worried at first, but rest assured this is a legitimate service. Price was reasonable for a one-hour shoot, would engage again.”
