Vivik & Aditi Surprise Sunset Proposal

The sunset in Mount Baker Snoqualmie National Park at Artist Point is the perfect spot for a surprise proposal or photoshoot. This location is also located in the North Cascades Region near the North Cascades National Park. This is one of the most EPIC locations in the world for a photo session. Especially one of the best locations in Washington State.

Every time I go here I feel like I’m in a movie. The mountain scenery is out of this world. This is why Vivik and Aditi wanted to take photos here for fun. They were visiting this spot with a couple of their friends and dogs. She knew we were having a photoshoot. Because we had to take advantage of this epic location. So, she was dressed up and ready to go.

This location is incredibly familiar to me and I’ve been here a million times. So, I knew exactly where I wanted the surprise proposal to take place. I told Vivik in advance and we planned to have him pop the question when I have him a specific posing prompt. I told them to walk away from each other then act like they were meeting each other at the airport after 5 years being apart. Fun or what?! What Aditi didn’t know was this is Vivik’s queue to drop to one knee as they walked towards each other and pull out that ring. It when beautifully and we celebrated by more photos and adventuring around the mountains. This was seriously an epic day spent together.
