Jake & Hannah’s Sunset Taft Point Proposal | Yosemite Proposal Photographer

If you’ve ever dreamed of proposing in one of the most breathtaking places on Earth, Taft Point in Yosemite National Park is hard to beat. With sweeping cliffside views, glowing sunsets, and a sense of wild freedom, it’s the perfect place for a life changing “yes.”

Recently, I had the absolute honor of helping Jake plan the perfect surprise proposal to his girlfriend, Hannah, at Taft Point. And let me tell you even after years of photographing proposals, I was nervous for him. We both stood just steps away from the edge of that iconic 7,500-foot cliff.

Planning the Perfect Yosemite Proposal at Taft Point

Jake reached out to me with a vision: he wanted to propose in Yosemite, but he wasn’t sure about the exact spot or timing. That’s where I came in — as a Yosemite proposal photographer/ Taft Point Proposal Photographer. I don’t just show up with my camera. Instead, I help you plan every detail so you can feel confident and focus on the moment.

We worked together to find the best time for golden hour light and to map out the trail to Taft Point, one of Yosemite’s most stunning, less crowded proposal spots. Timing a Yosemite proposal can be tricky. From lighting to crowds to trail conditions, it’s why having someone who knows the park inside and out can make all the difference.

The Big Moment

As we reached the cliff’s edge, I could feel Jake’s excitement and nerves honestly, I was shaking a little too! Watching him drop to one knee as the sun dipped behind the mountains was unforgettable. And of course, Hannah said YES.

Capturing this moment against the backdrop of Yosemite’s epic granite cliffs, golden light, and endless sky is exactly why I love what I do. These are the moments that deserve to be preserved forever.
