Hamptons Beach Proposal

Hamptons Beach Proposal | Engagement at Gin Beach

I am so excited to share Alexa and Peter’s Hamptons beach proposal photographed at Gin Beach!

Gin Beach is located in the town of Southampton and is one of Peter & Alexa’s “happy places.”

When planning a proposal – choosing a meaningful location that holds sentiment and fond memories is always best.

Peter and Alexa arrived before sunset with beach chairs  – a cooler and 2 pizza pies in tow.

What could be better than to enjoy delicious pizza – oceanfront at sunset in the Hamptons?

Getting engaged to your best friend and being totally surprised!

Alexa’s reactions are priceless.

Well done Peter!

Sharing some of my favorites fun engagement!

I always recommend scheduling your beach proposal about an hour before sunset.

This produces soft flattering light – void of harsh shadows and squinting – plus we can take some sunset photos.

I had so much fun capturing Peter & Alexa’s surprise proposal. If we followed the Tik Tok /Instagram trends of  “marry me” signs and rose petals etc…it would have greatly diminished their reactions as well as the sheer fun and emotion.
