I was so excited that the Chicago Tribune featured one of my photos in their recent article about marriage proposals.

The journalists interviewed Sarah Pease The Proposal Planner and the couple, Danny and Tanvi, whose proposal I photographed earlier this year.

Here is the link to Danny and Tanvi’s proposal on my blog: Danny proposes to Tanvi

New York Palace marriage proposal ~ NYC proposal photography

Mariann — Thu, 01 Dec 2011 23:49:18 +0000

This lucky lady was surprised by her boyfriend with a giant puzzle on the penthouse terrace of the New York Palace hotel while a trio of musicians were playing their favorite songs.

The puzzle’s missing piece was “husband and wife” and after the initial shock and surprise, she said Yes and they completed their puzzle of life!

Later the couple enjoyed an unforgettable dinner at Le Bernardin‘s private room, a 5 tiered puzzle cake and a ride around the city in a Rolls Royce Phantom.

Congratulations to the very happy couple!!

Big thanks to Sarah Pease the Proposal Planner and her team for the amazingly creative proposal idea and flawless execution!

Long Island City anniversary portraits: Tori and Karl ~ NYC Portrait photographer

I photographed Tori and Karl in Long Island City, who were celebrating their first year anniversary.

We also included their favorite things in the session, their bicycles. We started out the session in Gantry Park then walked over to 5Pointz for some cool graffiti backdrops. Had a great time with Tori and Karl.

NYC surprise marriage proposal photography

Mariann — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 13:23:13 +0000

I love photographing surprise marriage proposals!

Mike contacted me a couple months ago from Canada when he decided to plan a surprise New York City trip for his girlfriend, Sarah, and pop the question while visiting the Big Apple. Mike had it perfectly planned out and was looking for a photographer to capture the moment when he proposes to her.

Mike chose the beautiful and very busy spot, the Top of the Rock at Rockefeller Center. It was the perfect location as I could easily blend in with the tourist crowd and stayed unnoticed. After several e-mails leading up to the holiday weekend, on the day of the proposal, Mike texted me what they are wearing and what time they are getting to the Top of the Rock.

I easily spotted them when they arrived; they took their time looking around, taking some snapshots of one another. Then a few minutes later Mike got down on one knee and proposed! Of course Sarah said Yes! and dozens of tourist cheered loudly who witnessed the proposal.
After the initial shock and surprise we walked around Manhattan to photograph the newly engaged couple.

Congratulations and best wishes to Sarah and Mike!!

Surprise proposal with a Sex and the City theme ~ New York City

Mariann — Fri, 12 Aug 2011 23:37:10 +0000

This was hands down the most elaborate, incredible and well planned out proposal I have ever photographed. Spent the whole day with Julie a very lucky lady from Australia and Sarah the Proposal Planner.

Hayden, Julie’s boyfriend, and Sarah came up with a fabulous Sex and the City themed proposal that most girls can only dream of.

Sarah and I surprised Julie early morning with a special box and card from Hayden and we whisked her away on a shopping spree to fabulous stores such as Barneys and La Perla to pick out some shoes and lingerie. Then a make up and hair stylist transformed Julie into a model and we had a portrait session at the Standard Hotel in the Meatpacking District of Manhattan. The surprises did not end there. After the shopping and photo session and one last clue, Julie was blindfolded and driven to the Cartier flagship store on Fifth Avenue.

Inside the private room at Cartier, Hayden was waiting with a red box in hand and a gorgeous yellow diamond engagement ring! Naturally, Julie said Yes!!

Congratulations to Julie and Hayden!!
