Why Paparazzi Proposals

Why a team, and not one photographer you found online.

At Paparazzi Proposals we understand that you have a big life decision ahead, and it needs all kinds of support: from emotional guidance to help with logistics and planning. Over a decade of working and learning, we have developed protocols to make sure your proposal is executed in the most beautiful way.

A proposal is not just a photographer. Behind your date there is a team: coordinators and planners, photographers, editors and decorators, drivers and musicians. No last-minute cancellations, no no-shows, no unexpected changes (unless the weather doesn't permit). We are here for you, through what is likely one of the most important events of your life.

“You can go with one photographer you found online. It's not impossible, but you're taking a risk: we often get couples who are going through a last-minute cancellation, and we do our best to accommodate them, but a proposal planned on a tight deadline rarely ends up as perfect as you want it to be. Come to us from the beginning, and we'll support you with the whole team.”

Miami Proposal Map

Places to propose in Miami.

Miami hands you a backdrop for every kind of marriage proposal. We've scouted every spot on this map ourselves: for the light, for the privacy, and for the angles that make the photographs worth framing. Tap any pin to jump to that spot, or let a Miami proposal planner find the place where you two will want to get engaged.

Ideas & inspiration

Miami Proposal Ideas.

Not sure how to ask? Start with the place. The spot you choose sets the tone of the entire moment, whether you want it hidden and intimate or grand and unmistakably Miami.

Miami proposal decorations, set up before you arrive

Every idea below works beautifully on its own, or dressed up with full proposal decorations: a styled picnic, a candle heart glowing at dusk, or giant MARRY ME letters waiting as you round the corner. Your proposal planner arranges the permits, the timing and the setup, and your photographer is already in position, so all you have to do is walk them there. Tap any idea to read the full location guide.

Our work

Miami Proposal Photographer.

Every one of these was shot by a local Miami secret proposal photographer, standing exactly where we said we'd be: hidden in plain sight, lens ready, half a second before they turned around.

Location guides

Miami Proposal Locations.

The full story on every spot above: when the light is best, how private it really is, and what we can set up for you before you arrive.

Vizcaya Museum and Gardens

The Vizcaya is a villa that was built in 1916 in the Italian Renaissance style. It stands in Biscayne Bay surrounded by a ten-acre formal garden that has been carved out of the native hammock. There are limestone terraces, fountains, and a stone barge standing right next to the water with the ornate facade of the villa. It is great for architectural and portrait photography.

South Pointe Beach

South Pointe Beach is situated on the southern end of Miami Beach. It is located where the cruise ships come so close that they can be included in your frame, and there is the jetty extending into the waters. The jetty itself provides great leading lines, along with the skyline of South Beach. The sunrise at South Pointe is very picturesque, when the sun is shining softly on the waters and the ship channel.

Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park (Lighthouse)

The Cape Florida Lighthouse was first built in 1825 and can be seen as a whitewashed structure against the backdrop of sea grape trees and sandy trails. The park around it is filled with tropical hardwood hammocks that lead out into a beach where there is a clear view of downtown Miami across the water. The lighthouse itself is quite photogenic during golden hour when the sunlight hits the bricks and stucco of the tower.

Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden

Fairchild Tropical Garden is one of the biggest tropical botanical gardens located within the United States mainland, brimming with exotic palms, orchids, and a rain forest display which seems like an entirely different world away from the city. From lakes to vine pergolas and butterfly greenhouse, the changes in scenery and light never end. The sheer density of the gardens makes it easy to spot intimate shady arrangements as well as sweeping vistas of the garden landscape.

Maurice A. Ferré Park

Urban waterfront park in downtown Miami overlooking Biscayne Bay with skyline views. The contrast of grassy areas and skyscrapers in the background make the park uniquely urban and Miami. A great place for couples who wish to enjoy the skyline while staying in downtown Miami.

Biscayne Bay

Views over the water, with the skyline of Miami in the background, a tried and true option for proposing from the deck of a boat or taking pictures by the water with proper perspective. This place offers a spacious and open look which is very hard to find anywhere else in the city. Come at sunrise or sunset, when the light spreads across the bay and the towers start to glow.

Oleta River State Park

Florida’s biggest urban park where you will find water trails lined with mangroves. The maze of mangroves and tranquil glassy waters make it an actual wilderness experience. You’ll get to forget about the South Beach experience when you visit here. Ideal for couples who prefer nature over glitz and glamor.

Brickell Rooftop

The roof deck is in the midst of Brickell, offering a view of the entire Miami skyline. The surroundings consist of high rises, giving it a refined and sophisticated feel. It gets even more impressive when the lights of the city turn on at night.

Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse

A black and white lighthouse located at the inlet north of Miami with views of the open sea and the waterway around it. The bright colors and lines of the lighthouse make it a perfect focal point for coastal proposal photos. The boats going into the inlet make for a good motion element as well.

He knew what he was doing the second he got there. He gave tips on how my brother should have his girlfriend walk through the door, and even got down on one knee himself to make sure the position was perfect. The photos were ready 2 days later.

I swear I was looking for him during the walk, and he is like a ninja! It amazes me to this day that after our first quick chat, I literally never saw him again.
Mayank D.Verified review on Yelp
★★★★★
Exemplary photography, exceptional customer service, and very reasonable pricing. He put together maps of the walking path we would take to get to the proposal spot, and he was a great secret keeper as well.
