I was so honored to take part in this intentional and heartfelt proposal shoot by Amanda Lane Photography. She had such a lovely vision for a Christ-centered engagement session, complete with a carefully penned proposal letter. A single rose acts as a common motif throughout the shoot, tying all the pretty details together.
In Amanda’s own words:
This proposal is inspired from the song, “It Is Well” by Bethel music. Listening to these beautiful lyrics, I began to picture a proposal where every aspect was centered on glorifying Christ…
Marriage should be about two souls coming together as one to serve each other and God as one flesh. It’s a beautiful covenant and representation of the Gospel. Making this decision should be well thought out and prayed on. All should be well with both souls.”
Her inspired vision certainly shines in this beautiful editorial shoot. Can we all agree that a heartfelt love note should always be incorporated into proposals? I think a hand-calligraphed letter is such a touching way to express your love… and just imagine how much it will be treasured by generations to come.
Take a look at this sweet and purposeful proposal shoot… I think a proposal as thoughtful as this one would make it very easy to say “yes!”
