A last minute inquiry.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It was 1 am on a beautiful Friday in October and while I couldn’t sleep scrolling endlessly on Instagram I received a message from Jason who was desperately looking for a photographer for his proposal for that same Friday evening. The photographer he had hired had given up on him at the last minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s very rare that I respond to late-night messages like this, but I knew how stressed and anxious Jason must have been with less than 24 hours to go before his big proposal. So I took the time to answer him and a few minutes later his proposal was booked. What a relief!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their proposal location: The Lachine Canal at the Old Port of Montreal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Jason was traveling to Montreal from Vancouver, BC with his girlfriend Rae, and since it was his first time in Montreal he had no idea where to propose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He told me that he wanted an intimate place without too many people around and with a beautiful view of the city of Montreal to propose to Rae.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a few email exchanges, we decided to do it at the Old Port of Montreal near the Lachine Canal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the day of the proposal, Jason took Rae for a walk along the waterfront at the Old Port to spend some time together drinking wine and watching the city lights of Montreal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Rae didn’t know was that Jason had taken her there to ask her to marry him. As expected I was already at the location before they arrived to take pictures of them on the sly and document their proposal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within minutes of arriving at the venue, Jason got down on one knee and in front of the beautiful lit-up city of Montreal, he asked Rae to marry him. Rae couldn’t believe it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After saying ‘I do’ they opened a bottle of wine and celebrated their engagement while enjoying the sunset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
