Secret Beach Proposal on Cape Cod

Zach and Alex’s proposal at Harborview Beach in Dennis, MA was one of the most beautiful moments I’ve had the chance to photograph. I arrived early and watched as the tide eased out and the sky shifted into soft pink tones. When Zach got down on one knee, I was already tearing up behind the camera, and when Alex said yes, I cried right along with her. As the sunset faded into lavender, we walked along the beach and took it all in, making images that feel honest, emotional, and full of love — the kind of story I feel incredibly lucky to witness and even luckier to photograph.
