Surprise proposal in Montmartre
BY DAMIEN
Brian & Meg’s romantic Paris surprise proposal in Montmartre will surely make you dream about getting engaged in Paris. Montmartre is such a romantic area in Paris with romantic gardens, authentic Parisian streets and a great city view. So as Brian & Meg’s Paris based photographer Damien, I was very excited to plan a surprise proposal photoshoot in Montmartre with them.
Planning your surprise proposal in Paris
Brian contacted me, Damien, from The Parisian Photographers, and said he wanted to propose in Montmartre. I instantly loved the idea. But as an experienced photographer in Paris I also know that Montmartre area is very popular and quickly gets busy and crowded. So I recommended to plan the surprise proposal and photo session in Montmartre as early in the morning as possible to beat the crowds. Because it’s just nicer for the couple to have a private and intimate moment to propose in Paris and get engaged in Montmartre.
Brian was on board with the plan. So we decided that we will meet in Montmartre at sunrise time before the crowds arrive. Also the light at sunrise is beautiful and soft and perfect for a surprise proposal photo shoot in Montmartre. When Brian & Meg arrived she luckily had no idea what was about to happen.
We pretended just to have a simple couple photo shoot in Montmartre. After a few shots as their professional Paris photographers I lead them to a street corner where Brian had prepared a writing on a wall with red flower petals. It said: “Will you marry me?” Meg was totally surprise and so happy.
We turned around to have the city view of Paris in the background and Brian got down on his knee to pop the questions and to give Meg a beautiful Paris engagement ring. It was a magical moment when Brian proposed to Meg with the City of Love in the background. And I am so happy that as their English speaking Paris photographer I was able to capture this magical moment. Now they will always have their Paris photos as keepsakes of their surprise proposal in Montmartre. Congratulations to Brian & Meg!

Brian said about his experience with his Paris proposal photographer: “Damien from the Parisian Photographers helped me capture my surprise proposal at Sacré-Coeur at sunrise. Throughout the process he was incredibly responsive and communicative and even visited the site before I arrived to help determine the best vantage point for the proposal. Not only did he work hard to have the photos ready the same day, but they were also gorgeous! “
“He gave us more photos than expected and spent extra time on the day of the shoot to walk around and take spectacular pictures. If you are considering a proposal or a shoot in Paris, definitely ask for Damien. He was very professional and fun, and made the entire experience carefree and his English is very strong. Highly recommend!”
