Ah one of my favorite setups thus far. Danielle was visiting her sister here in San Diego and Mark was on work traveling. Well, so Danielle thought he was.

Mark contacted me and well….wait for it…. another surprise proposal mission in plan!  Mark secretly flew to San Diego and with the help of Danielle’s sister she was able to get her to exactly where we needed her. Both families were there, which was an added bonus to the surprise. But let me tell you how we set the scene, another one of my wild ideas.

Mark and I were secretly “just another couple on the beach”. Since Danielle didn’t know Mark was going to be in town, why couldn’t we look like another pair enjoying the beach view? So there we were sitting side by side, admiring the ocean with our backs to the street. Danielle is chauffeured down to our view “spot”, not sure why here sister was so insistent, and voila! Mark turns around and boom! Instant surprise gratification. Snap snap snap! (okay adding that for camera effects, but that was really how quickly it happened). And well, with the photos it only went up from there.
