Romantic Monastery Proposal:

A Magical Moment in Sao Bento da Vitoria, Porto

Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing one of the most beautiful and romantic surprise proposals I've ever seen.

The proposal took place in the Monastery of Sao Bento da Vitoria in Porto, and it was truly a breathtaking experience.

The groom-to-be had planned everything meticulously, from the setting to the music to the candles. He arranged for a mini-orchestra to play his girlfriend's favorite song as he sat at the piano, surrounded by thousands of flickering candles.


As the music swelled, the groom-to-be got down on one knee and pulled out a ring, asking his girlfriend to spend the rest of her life with him. The moment was magical, and the look on his girlfriend's face was priceless.

As a photographer, it was an honor to capture this momentous occasion. The Monastery of Sao Bento da Vitoria provided a stunning backdrop for the proposal, and the candles created a warm and intimate atmosphere. The mini-orchestra added an extra layer of romance, making the moment even more special.

The groom-to-be had put much thought and effort into creating the perfect proposal, which paid off in spades. His girlfriend was overjoyed and touched by the gesture, and it was clear that she had said yes before he even finished asking the question.

This proposal was a beautiful reminder that love is alive and well, and that there are still people out there who are willing to go above and beyond to show their love and commitment to their partners. It was a privilege to be a part of such a special moment, and I wish the happy couple all the best as they embark on this new chapter of their lives together.
