Love has a way of surprising us when we least expect it. For Matt and Hannah, their love story unfolded on the sandy shores of Mission Beach yesterday. With a little help from me, Matt planned a surprise proposal in less than 8 hours before the event! The truth is, Hannah planned most of her own proposal unknowingly because she picked the restaurant and the beach walk….perfect for a TRUE surprise! After their scenic sushi dinner, they took a stroll along the beach where Matt knelt down and proposed, presenting Hannah with an engagement ring that he had hidden in a seashell. I loved capturing the genuine shock and delight on her face, in these beach engagement photos. It was truly heartwarming. Congrats you two!
