Lake Engagement with Wild Horses

Cali & Pete were engaged in a magical way (read the proposal story below) so their engagement session needed to be just as spectacular! The two, along with April Maura Photography, decided on Saguaro Lake. Here, they captured special photos of their engagement with wild horses – yes horses! The beautiful lakeside landscape was all they needed for an all around gorgeous shoot. We think you’ll fall in love with Cali & Pete themselves just as much as you do their session.

The proposal story…

Standing in line at the entrance, they wait in anticipation for their turn to get past the dial. Magical sounds of “entry into disneyland” rang several different times. Excitement for their day ahead started to magnify more and more while standing before the historic Disneyland Main St.. Little did Cali know that Pete had their own “happily ever after” day waiting for them.

It was a December California day when Pete and Cali decided to plan this Disneyland day with a couple of their closest friends. They went from Tomorrow Land to Fantasy Land, big ride to small ride, and churros to Mickey pretzels to popcorn. Dusk began and Cali was on her way to grab some popcorn. While Cali was away, Pete suggested they all make their way to Sleeping Beauty’s Castle to capture a magical group photo. After the “snap” by the Disney Cast Member, Pete wondered out loud, “Are we celebrating anything today?” and a friend jokingly responds, “Oh yeah, it’s a birthday?” They shared a laugh, and the friends unsuspectedly began to walk away to get to their next ride.

Pete and Cali however, remained near to the Castle, and suddenly Pete dropped down to one knee, hand in hand with Cali. He pulled out a ring box, and said to his forever princess, “I love you, will you marry me?” She replied with a surprised and excited, “Yes!” They wrapped each other in their arms, and shared an embrace. Their friends and surrounding Disneyland guests applauded the start of their new journey. They were both so excited and shocked.

Especially since they were able to be with their friends during such a special time such as this! Afterwards, everyone made their way to the epic Space Mountain. What a perfect way to celebrate the start to the ride of their life!

It is so exciting to be able to see Pete and Cali begin their own love story together and experience a taste of true forever love as one family. For their engagement session, we took our time wandering the gorgeous landscapes of Saguaro Lake and snapping portraits along the way. While being present in the moment, there were also times of joy when thinking of their future wedding at the grove.
