Bradley & Jonathan's Proposal Story in New York City
How did you meet?
At a bar
What is your love story?
We met at a bar... Jon was way too drunk and too persistent in getting me a drink. We chatted for a bit, but I was quite short with him as I wasn't all that interested. At that time I lived in a different province and told him that nothing would work out as we lived too far apart. I only really noticed him later in the evening when he was dancing with someone else & I'd lost my opportunity! Fast forward 4 months, I moved back to his province for work. I let him know I'm back in town, we went on a dinner date, and the rest just happened!
What made you choose this proposal destination?
I'm interested in architecture and New York has always represented a majestic architectural giant with different shapes, shades, lines and textures around every corner. The city scape view from Brooklyn provides the best background to any shoot!
What is your proposal story?
I had planned to propose during our photo shoot with Flytogrpaher, however Jon also had his own plan which I didn't know about! He popped the question a day before my plans! It was very casual, we were walking on the High Line back to our hotel after a day out and took a rest at the observation deck. Jon went down on one knee and I pulled him up right I away! I said: "Put it away! This is supposed to happen tomorrow, I've planned something!"

What is your love story?
We first met on the Japan Cupid dating site. I knew from the very start before we ever met in person she was 'the one' because of her warmth, caring, honesty and candor in both her profile and texts.
What made you choose this proposal destination?
We were visiting Trento, but the closest location Flytographer had was Verona. I wanted somewhere special and my research led me to Giardino Giusti as both a romantic and picturesque location to capture the moment of a lifetime.
What is your proposal story?
It was as special a moment as one could imagine as I expressed my heartfelt feelings for her and what she means to me now and forever.

Parking outside Giardino Giusti is very limited. Luckily for us, it was the day after Christmas 12/26 so there were few people out and we found street parking right outside the main entrance.

Work
What is your love story?
Summer of 2020...the year we met working together at Grand View Camp. While there is so much to be said about us & our story, here's one little piece that sticks out to me. I remember meeting you for the first time when you arrived with your church's work group to help build the camp's observation deck. I remember thinking, "dang.. this pretty blonde girl can WORK." I would carry one fairly-long 2x4 up the narrow, rocky trail on the steep hill where the deck would be, then I'd see you coming up carrying two of them! So l'd go back down to the truck and pick up three this time (in my competitive spirit I thought, "I can't let this gal carry more wood than me!") and then I'd see you passing me carrying three as well! You push me to work hard with how hard you work. You remind me that I can always push a little harder when I think I'm at my end. I've never met anyone so determined, strong-willed, adventurous, wild-spirited, and bright in my entire life.
What made you choose this proposal destination?
It was her favorite spot in the world and grew up going to vacation there!
What is your proposal story?
I told my girlfriend, Savannah, I was planning a trip to meet with an old friend at the beach and that we’re gonna meet at the pier. Little did she know that there was no friend I was meeting and that she was going to be coming home as my fiancé! We drove 6hrs from Phoenix and somehow it all worked perfectly!!
