Orlando Engagement Photoshoot, Cute Disney Proposal Whether you’re six or thirty-six, graduating high school, getting engaged, or capturing special moments with your young children, there is nothing not to like about a trip to Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. We’re grown adults with grandchildren and still get excited every time we walk into the park.

We do a lot of photoshoots at Disney parks, and one of the top questions we get from our clients is, “What should I wear for my Disney engagement photos?” Below, we’ve curated a list with six of our favorite styles that look great in Disney engagement photos.

1. Dress In the Spirit of Your Favorite Character
Orlando Engagement Photoshoot, Disney Engagement

Unfortunately, Disney does not allow visitors to dress in full costume at the parks. But you don’t need a full costume to get into the Disney spirit! Lots of couples take inspiration from their favorite characters or films to choose unique outfits for their engagement sessions. Check out these adorable couples giving a nod to Sleeping Beauty and Harry Potter for their Disney engagement photos.

2. Choose Your Favorite Super Cute Disney Ears

Disney fans know there are Mickey and Minnie ears for any occasion. If it seems like your Disney engagement photos are missing something, choose your favorite ears and some cute outfits to match. You’ll be giving “adorable engaged couple” vibes all over the Disney parks! Are you a classic Mickey and Minnie ears couple, or do you prefer something a little different?

3. Show Your Pride LGBQT Disney Engagement, Orlando Engagement Photoshoot

Disney World is known for being open and affirming of all relationships, and so are we! If you’re an LGBTQIA+ couple wanting to celebrate your engagement at Disney, grab a Disney pride shirt and call us! I personally love the rainbow Mickey shirts in these photos!

4. Choose Outfits that Feel a Little Fancy Orlando Engagement Photoshoot, Dress to wear Disney Engagement

Want some special photos to celebrate your engagement but don’t really want them to be Disney-themed? We’ve got you covered. Disney World is packed with stunning engagement photo backdrops that don’t scream amusement park.

5. Be Relaxed and Comfortable Orlando Engagement Photoshoot, Comfortable clothes for Disney Engagement

There’s a good chance your Disney proposal will be a complete surprise for your loved one. If you asked your spouse-to-be to get dressed up for a photo shoot, it might spoil the surprise. We love a casual, candid Disney engagement shoot.

6. Your Favorite Disney Tee Shirts Orlando Engagement Photoshoot

Finally, we love a simple Disney t-shirt look! Comfort is key if your plan is to stick around and enjoy the park after your engagement photoshoot. These couples look so cute and like they were dressed for fun!

But let’s be honest, what makes the best Disney engagement photos is your big, beautiful smile! Your photos will be perfect because the camera will capture two people in love, celebrating one of the most joyful moments of their lives.

We’ve been capturing engagement photoshoots at Disney World for years and would love to help you and your fiance celebrate this exciting new season in your life.

Engagement Photos at the Magic Kingdom

Jessica and Matthew were so excited to have their Disney engagement photos at the Magic Kingdom! It is no wonder why so many couples get engaged at Disney’s Magic Kingdom, and it’s always a thrill when we’re there to capture the magic.

They met us at Disney’s Main Street in front of the train station. We were so happy to stroll through the park with these two to capture their Disney proposal portraits. Disney’s 50^th-anniversary celebration was underway at the time, so we made sure to take lots of portraits all around Cinderella Castle. The lighting was fabulous and unique, and the magical background was perfect to complement this beautiful and sweet couple.

Jessica’s white dress was stunning with a big beautiful bow in the back, but what I loved most where her amazing Disney-inspired sparkly nails to go with her perfect engagement ring!

In all our portraits of these two, it’s clear to see what a sweet love they have for each other. They truly adore one another, and we expect to see many more smiles and gentle smooches in their future.

If you’re planning an engagement session, we can be there to help you preserve the memories for a lifetime! Contact The Canovas Photography today!

Boardwalks make us think of summertime romances and idyllic sunsets, and our recent clients Shannon and Kevin bring that same energy to Disney’s Boardwalk. We met up with this beautiful couple for their engagement photos on the boardwalk.

Disney’s Boardwalk is a Disney locale that doesn’t get the credit and attention it deserves. It has all the magic of Disney with the classically charming aesthetic of a coastal boardwalk stroll. We took advantage of the boardwalk’s look to give Shannon and Kevin lovely engagement portraits that fit their adorable personality as a couple.

Shannon and Kevin are from Maine, so they welcomed the Florida weather with open arms. Shannon is an artist, so it’s no surprise that she and Kevin put together a fantastic, Disney-appropriate look with pastel pink and blue.

We took a few sweet indoor shots and played with some unique lighting that created a nice dramatic look. These two laidback lovebirds were so at home in each other’s arms and were happy to cozy up on a few couches and nooks.

Outside along the boardwalk, we put the quaint beachside look to good use. Some of the boardwalk’s top attractions, like Jellyrolls and Atlantic Dancing, had amazing retro backdrops that were perfect for this truly timeless couple.

Some of our favorite shots were the portraits in front of the lighthouse. Shannon and Kevin looked so natural together and the sun shining behind them is breathtaking. We also played with some fun poses using the boardwalk’s photo booths, with Shannon and Kevin peeking at each other from the doorways. We’re sure this will be a memory that sticks with them as they capture more memories together through the years on all their future adventures.

The Orlando area is full of gorgeous places for engagement photos and other once-in-a-lifetime portraits. Contact The Canovas Photography today to book your session for your next milestone event.

Proposal Photography at the Grand Floridian

One of my favorite parts of proposal photography sessions at Disney is the opportunity to meet people from everywhere and anywhere! Disney fans are all over the country and all over the world and many of them flock to Disney World to experience the magic, so I have the unique privilege of photographing people from so many states and countries.

In this case, I was excited to celebrate and capture the beautiful moment that these two Louisianians became engaged. Mallory and Nicholas are a couple of LSU Tigers who had long had a love for Disney and couldn’t wait for their dream vacation. Mallory had no idea, though, that Nicholas had plans to make their trip even more magical by asking her to be his wife.

Mallory and Nicholas were an absolute joy to work with every step of the way. They’re simply a genuinely kind and fun couple, and some of my favorite portraits are those showing Mallory and Nicholas laughing and having fun together – just being their sweet selves.

The Grand Floridian Resort, where the couple was staying, created the perfect backdrop for their engagement photos. The resort is absolutely gorgeous, with perfectly green lawns, lovely water features, and stunning interiors. As a fun added bonus, because Mallory and Nicholas were in town during the holiday season, the resort had an amazing Christmas tree! It was a great way to capture this special time of year that has been made even more beautiful by the upcoming start of this couple’s life together.

I can’t blog about this session without also mentioning the pictures of Mallory and Nicholas’s LSU class rings alongside Mallory’s new engagement ring. To me, it was the perfect snapshot to tell their story, and I know that it’s only the beginning.

Wishing for a “Yes:” A Proposal at Magic Kingdom’s Wishing Well

Life has a way of getting busy enough to fill all of your time. You might be balancing your career, kids, home, school, hobbies, friends, or any combination of these rewarding yet time-consuming parts of life. Still, we always manage to find time for what is most important.

That’s exactly what happened with this beautiful couple, Marc and Melissa. Marc runs a boating business and he was right in the middle of his busy season, but he knew that this was also the perfect season to give Melissa the proposal of her dreams. So despite the couple’s busy schedule, Marc found the time (and help from Melissa’s Mom) to put together an incredibly special day for his love Melissa.

What better place to pop the question than Cinderella’s Wishing Well at Disney’s Magic Kingdom? After all, you’re putting your whole heart into wishing that the love of your life says “yes!” From a photography perspective, the scenery of the wishing well is also downright gorgeous.

Melissa and Marc were such a sweet couple to get to know. We took full advantage of Disney’s scenery, with plenty of photos in front of the Cinderella Castle. This can be a challenge sometimes because of heavy crowds, but fortunately, Marc and Melissa had a rather quiet day so I was able to capture plenty of photos of them with the classic Magic Kingdom scenery without a clutter of other people in the background.

Of course, it isn’t a proposal photo shoot without plenty of shots featuring the ring! The pear-shaped solitaire was stunning, and it looks like it was always meant to be on Melissa’s finger. It was a joy to create so many photos of these two simply having fun and being their adorable selves together.

If you’re planning a Disney proposal and you want to chronicle it with professional photos, call our Orlando area photography studio today.

A Proposal At Disney’s Magic Kingdom | Kaylee and Sean

Kaylee has to be one of our sweetest and cutest brides-to-be! When Sean proposed to her at Disney’s Magic Kingdom, Kaylee’s expressions were priceless. She was so happy! Sean brought her and lots of friends and family, all the way from Texas to help make this day very special for her. Congratulations Sean and Kaylee!

From Kaylee:
We met on the second day of high school my sophomore year during lunch when I offered him a go-go squeeze because the line was so long I didn’t want him to be hungry. He played baseball, was in the grade above me, and still had his post-summer tan from lifeguarding so he was basically it for me right then. Sean was so shy about liking me that I had to ask him for his number to get the ball rolling. Within those first two years, I had three surgeries, my house flooded twice, we both graduated high school, he started the process of becoming a firefighter, and I moved away for school. Through all of that we stayed together he was my foundation through all the hard stuff, laughed with me through the silly stuff, and we continued to grow with one another.

When I was 11 I was bit by a snake on my left ring finger and was really self-conscious about the scar that was left behind for a while. My surgeon was amazing though so I told myself it would really matter because the ring and the person would make up for it and they wouldn’t care about any scar it would be about us. Sean knows me so well and he planned everything so perfectly the ring, the people that were present, the place, and even having you guys there I couldn’t ask for a better proposal or a better man to spend the rest of my life with. I had a teacher in high school who told all his students not to be so involved in high school relationships because in the long run, it doesn’t work out. The day after Sean proposed I emailed him telling him we beat the odds, we are getting married. A few days later I heard back from him telling me he’s never been happier to be proven wrong.

I cannot be more excited to marry Sean, he is the person I look forward to telling everything to, he’s my best friend without him I have no idea where I would be but I know he helps me be the best version of myself always.
