Florida can be a beautiful place for a romantic getaway – the sun, the ocean air, the stunning landscape, and even more stunning sunsets. It’s no surprise that Florida is also a popular place to take romance to the next level and pop the question.

That’s exactly what Michael had in mind for the love of his life, Brittany. This adorable couple from Massachusetts has a joy that is truly infectious, so it was an honor to be able to photograph these two making it official. Brittany was shocked in the best possible way when she saw Michael get down on one knee in the shade of a palm tree, and she simply couldn’t wait to say “yes!”

Michael proposed to Brittany at the lovely Grand Floridian Resort, which is one of our favorite places in the area for photo shoots. The grounds of the Grand Floridian and gorgeous, and we took full advantage of this couple’s engagement photo shoot.

We chose a relaxed feel for the engagement portraits, and they fit this couple’s style perfectly. Many of our shots feature a quaint gazebo that has a wonderful Florida look. The Grand Floridian’s idyllic courtyard is a beautiful backdrop as well, with a charm that only comes second to the charm of this cute couple.

Throughout the session, it was a joy to see how much Michael and Brittany enjoyed each other’s company, making each other laugh and having a fantastic time together. We’re certain that these two will have a marriage filled with love, laughter, and adventure.

Proposal photos are a wonderful way to capture the memories of this most incredible day in your life, and they can serve the added purpose of checking engagement photos off your to-do list. Book your proposal photos at The Canovas Photography today.

Proposal Photos at Epcot

Teachers are some of the most impactful people in our world, holding the power to inspire, inform, and motivate the next generation of leaders. We can all feel a little better about the future knowing that Marissa and Jacob will be in that role. These two lovebirds are both studying to be teachers in San Diego, and we were thrilled to be able to capture the life-changing moment they became engaged.

Marissa and Jacob are some of the most joyful, positive people we’ve had the pleasure of working with. It’s safe to say that Marissa was excited to say “yes” to Jacob, and she was clearly enamored with her gorgeous new ring.

Throughout Marissa and Jacob’s engagement photo session, we enjoyed a simulated trip around the world on Epcot’s spectacular grounds. The newly engaged couple twirled in the streets of France, stood in awe of a Chinese temple, and cozied up in an old-school London phone booth. Their smiles never wavered for an instant.

We have to say that these two make an utterly beautiful couple. It’s easy to see the pure joy between the two of them, and their smiles will brighten any room. They even managed to be color-coordinated with each other in their outfits! The beautiful pinks spoke to the lively, graceful spirit these two shares, and they made the couple truly pop inside a bold pink flower arch we found.

We always particularly love photos that show couples simply having fun together, and Marissa and Jacob’s session was full of these candid shots. They were constantly laughing and giggling together, and it was obvious that their wedded home will be full of joy.

If you’re planning to pop the question, The Canovas Photography would be happy to be there to chronicle your special moment and give you a beautiful engagement photo session. For photography at Epcot, in the Disney parks, or elsewhere in the Orlando area, call our photo studio to book your session.

Proposal Photos at the Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort

I love taking proposal photos! Some love stories are whirlwinds that happen quickly and sweep you off your feet. Other love stories are years in the making, with a series of steps that all lead up to an amazing happy ending. Christian and Ellen’s story was the latter, and I was so honored to be there when that story reached a beautiful milestone: their engagement.

Christian and Ellen first met in high school and struck up a friendship. While they were friends on the surface, Christian always held a flame for Ellen, and as their friendship deepened, they both realized that it was turning into so much more. At one point, Ellen mentioned that her dream proposal was a Disney World proposal, and unbeknownst to her, Christian stored that idea away for the future. Ten years later, the now loving couple went on a vacation to Disney and Christian made Ellen’s dream come true.

It was so touching to watch these two together and to be able to share in their love story! Some of my favorite photos are capturing the adoring way they each look at each other, and it’s clear that they treasure each other in a way that will last a lifetime.

The Grand Floridian Resort created a perfect setting for Ellen and Christian’s engagement portraits. The quaint scenery and gorgeous outdoor space created a romantic atmosphere to capture the tenderness between these two lovebirds, and I’m so honored that these photos will be part of the beginning of their new life together! Ellen is already excited to start planning their big day, and they can’t wait to be the future Mr. and Mrs. Aldecoa.

Surprise Disney World Proposal Session

Alexis’s father had a whole big plan for helping Greg’s surprise Disney World proposal to his daughter. They came all the way from New Jersey, for one day – so it had to be perfect. Alexis was visiting the Magic Kingdom with her sister. She never expected to see Greg, especially down on one knee, roses and in hand in front of Cinderella Castle! Her face was priceless! She was also very surprised to see her parents there too. We had a great time walking through the park while they laughed and danced. So happy for you Alexis and Greg!

Magic Kingdom Proposal Ideas

The phone call came first from Naim’s sister, asking for proposal information for her brother. They had an elaborate plan to take the New Jersey family to Disney’s Magic Kingdom for Naim to propose to his beautiful lady, Elina. The women in the family planned an all-girls trip to Walt Disney World for a few days. Elina had no idea that the rest of the family, including Naim, would be there too.

Courtney and I waited in front of Cinderella Castle for Naim’s sister to take photos. I asked them if they would like some pro photos, I could email them to her. “Sure!” Elina said. After a few shots, I asked Elina if she would also like photos of the whole family? She said, “No, it’s just us.” I said, “Well, what about all the people behind you?!”

At that point, the whole family walked up behind them, including Naim. Elina could not believe her eyes when she saw him there! Then a double surprise as she watched him get down on one knee and ask her to marry him! With lots of tears, Elina said YES! Such a fun couple and photoshoot! Congratulations Elina and Naim!

Disney Proposal Photography | Samantha and Aaron

Aaron called me from New York to help him plan his proposal to his girl Samantha at Walt Disney’s Magic Kingdom. We had fun going back and forth, making plans. Their beautiful story is best told by them so here it is xo:

Aaron: We met at a party my sister forced me to go to shortly after returning home from the army. I was being reasonably belligerent and I saw her and she shot daggers at me with her eyes and I said, “boy I’m glad I didn’t marry you!” Haha. She’s been with me on what’s been a 5-year recovery.

When we met I had no car, no job, no money, and a drug problem. One night I was at a get together at her mom’s and she came home from being out with friends and she sat down and I talked to her for 6 hours that night. Told her everything about who I was in honest truth and that was the beginning of the emotional connection.

She’s a caretaker; compassionate, kind, loves kids, a social worker. She’s a wonderful partner and exactly what I want in a mother for my children. Disney is her favorite place, and after all the hassle of trying to plan a local proposal and follow on dinner our families wanted, Disney world was a no-brainer. She took me for my first time new year 2015 but I think I took her for her most memorable trip 😉

Samantha: growing up, I always knew I wanted to be married. I am a very committed person when it comes to my relationships. I’m a giver. I am also very selective with who I show this side to.

When I got to know Aaron I immediately wanted to give him everything. no holding back, no restrictions. My love for him was immediately unconditional. I have always been content with the idea of spending every ounce of time I have with him.

At some points of our relationship, we questioned whether marriage was going to happen for us.

Never once doubting our love for each other.

That’s why I cried so hard when he proposed. This was a day that almost didn’t happen for us and it made me appreciate it a million times more.

Disney world is my favorite place. My family took vacations there every year when I was a kid. I continued to go there as an adult. Everyone that knows me, knows that I love it there.

I never imagined getting that kind of proposal. I am so blessed to be with someone as thoughtful as he is.

Aaron is also very compassionate and resilient. He makes me stop and appreciate the little details of life. He makes me laugh harder than anyone else can.

He makes me want to be the best version of myself, every day. He is my hero. Just when I think I couldn’t love this guy more…I do!

Monttez called me saying he wanted to propose to his girl Caitline at Disney’s Boardwalk, but had never been there, so it was hard for him to plan! I was able to help him make it all work for the surprise proposal – Caitline was so surprised and we had a lot of fun walking through the Boardwalk. Congratulations Monttez and Caitline!

From Caitline: Monttez and I met in high school on Facebook. Meeting people on Facebook back then was what our generation did. We started dating our junior year of college. Monttez has been and always will be the biggest blessing from God. As a young girl, I always prayed for a man to come sweep me up off my feet. He did just that, but all in God’s timing. I am honored that such a sweet, caring, and loving man chose me to be his wife. I cannot wait to see what life has in store for us, the soon to be Shackelford’s.

From Monttez: Caitline is amazing and truly a gift from God that I can’t thank him enough for. She is a blessing to me day in and day out. I love her patience, supportiveness, loyalty, and empathy. She is very inspirational and a delight to be around. I‘m thrilled to soon be able to call her my wife and go through life with her. I love her.

Disney’s Boardwalk Resort Proposal | Jordan and Nick

Nick was very slick pretending to tie his shoe, but was really getting Jordan’s ring so that he could propose to her! We had such a fun day with them – we even got to meet their wonderful families afterwards for a champagne toast.

From Nick: Jordan and I met 2012 in Choir at High Point University. We quickly became friends and started dating at the end of my senior year of college. Jordan was still in college at that time. We knew long distance would be a challenge but when you love someone enough anything is possible. We spent every minute we had free to travel to each other together. I am a police officer in Ohio and Jordan is a 2nd semester medical school student. I love Jordan because she makes me such a better person. I proposed to Jordan at Disney because we have been there many times together over our 4.5 years of dating and it’s a special place full of amazing memories for us! I told Jordan I wanted to walk around the Boardwalk at Disney before we had dinner at Il Mulino. After walking around for a while, I told her I had to tie my shoe. When she turned around I was down on one knee asking her to marry me. She said YES and we can’t wait to start our life together!

And a surprise message for Nick from Jordan, she wanted him to read it here: Nick is the man that every girl dreams of marrying. From day one he has treated me like a princess so proposing to me at Disney could not have been a more perfect place. He makes me laugh and he is always there for me. He has the kindest heart of anyone I’ve ever met. We are so blessed to have found each other and that God placed us in each other’s lives. We can’t wait for our future together! I’m so thankful that Nick hired The Canovas Photography to capture our special moment. He couldn’t have picked a better team! (Thank you! That means a lot. xo – Kelly)

Magic Kingdom Proposal | Crystal and Brandon

It’s always so fun for us to help plan a proposal from a very-in-love-but-nervous guy in another state. We have secret codes, texts and emails. Brandon’s proposal to Crystal in front of Cinderella Castle is one of our favorites! It was perfect! Congratulations you two! xo

From Brandon: Crystal and I first met about 10 years ago in chemistry sophomore year of high school. We became good friends until we graduated where we fell out of touch with each other. 4 years ago we got back in touch and one thing led to another and we became a couple. We always have a great time together whether it’s going on little trips, visiting the zoo, walking the dog, or just watching TV on the couch. Words could not describe my feelings for her and how much I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her so I figured a grand proposal would do the trick. She always wanted to go to Disney and I have been there a few times myself. I knew it would catch her off guard and it would be magical for her since it is Disney after all. I was trying my hardest to find a way to capture the moment and when I found Kelly and Courtney online I was so relieved that they could help me out with just one week notice. I was a nervous wreck all day at the park waiting for that right time and it went seamlessly. They did an excellent job! (Aw thanks Brandon 🙂

From Crystal: Brandon and I met in high school. We were very close friends and would hang out all the time. College created some years of separation between us. When we reconnected, it was like no time passed at all! Our friendship turned into the relationship I always hoped it would! We have been dating four years now, and they have been nothing short of amazing. Every day and every year I just love Brandon more. I cannot wait to make more memories and a life together! I am lucky enough to have found the person who makes me laugh, supports me and loves me unconditionally!
