Love is in the air—and on the Internet! To celebrate Valentine’s Day, we’ve chosen some 40+ captures of question-popping moments. The range of images go from highly-produced and staged events to informal snapshots.
Proposal photography has become a widely-desired part of getting engaged. Usually, the groom hires a photographer (or persuades a friend) to be in on the plan, either shooting from a hidden location or working with the unsuspecting fiancee-to-be on what she may think is an unrelated photo shoot.
Scroll down to get a nearly anthropological look at how people around the world propose to each other. While there are lots of similarities—typically, one person is down on a knee while the surprised recipient is covering their face in shock—some folks have gotten mighty creative, from an oversized ring balloon to an elephant handing her a heart, to a room festooned with balloons or a group of friends holding up signs saying “Will You Marry Me?”
Some people get engaged in an apartment, others climb mountains or go to a well-known and much-photographed location to pop the question. Some have a candle-lit path to the place where the question will be asked. Others go out into blizzards or deserts, or arrange well-timed fireworks.
So whether you just want to enjoy other peoples’ happiness or are looking for ideas for your magic moment, scroll through and enjoy, starting with an insanely well-timed canine photobomb!
