Dreams Sapphire Surprise Proposal. Mike Amatto

Couples, Surprise Proposals

There are few things more exciting than capturing the raw emotion of a surprise proposal, and Mike Amatto’s proposal at the beautiful Dreams Sapphire resort was nothing short of magical. From the very first moment, it was clear that this was going to be an unforgettable moment in their love story.

Mike had planned everything to perfection. He chose the resort’s breathtaking beach as the backdrop, with the sound of the waves and the setting sun casting a romantic glow. His nerves were evident, but his excitement and love for his partner shone through even more.

As the couple strolled along the shore, taking in the serene beauty of the Riviera Maya, Mike dropped to one knee at the perfect moment. The look of surprise, joy, and pure love on his fiancée’s face was priceless. Tears of happiness followed, and I was there to capture every intimate second—from the proposal itself to their embrace as they celebrated the beginning of this new chapter in their lives.

After the proposal, we captured some sweet engagement portraits around the resort, soaking in the tropical scenery and their radiant happiness. It was an honor to document this milestone for them, and the images truly reflect their deep connection and the joy of that magical day.

A surprise proposal is a once-in-a-lifetime moment, and having a photographer there to discreetly capture every emotion as it unfolds allows you to relive the excitement and romance for years to come. It also gives you the opportunity to have beautiful engagement photos immediately after the big “Yes!”
