What a magically romantic night this was for a surprise proposal! Joaquin planned a trip to New York from Guadalajara, Mexico, where he arranged with Avani from Ever After Proposals to have his declaration of love on the Jumbotron in Times Square. It had been raining all day but things cleared up enough to pull things off without a hitch! The rain on the streets made everything shine and glow. It was an incredible silver lining to the stormy weather. To see everyone respond to what was happening, cheering them on and clapping was an amazing experience. It was also exciting because I had to follow them on their walk and photograph them surreptitiously. I felt like a secret agent on a mission! So, mission accomplished and congratulations to Andrea and Joaquin!

Joaquín Cervera - I traveled from México to NYC to propose to my girlfriend at Times Square, I was really nervous because even with all the planning we did several months before, I knew that in such a chaotic place anything can go wrong. Elana gave me a lot of confidence, since the moment I spotted her waiting for us to take a candid session before the proposal I felt relieved, she took an amazing set of pics and my girlfriend never realized we were being photographed! then she magically captured every single moment in the proposal, and the set after proposal was truly amazing. I can't think of a single thing that could had been better, Thanks again for everything Elana! Sincerely: Joaquín & Andrea.

Joaquín Cervera - I traveled from México to NYC for my proposal, basically out of my comfort zone and knowing anyone over there! Even with all the planning we did before the trip I was really nervous because in such a chaotic place anything can go wrong. Since the moment I spotted Elana across the street I felt completely relieved, she was hiding in plain sight to capture an amazing candid set, my girlfriend never realized we were being photographed, then when the proposal came, Elana captured every single second, seems like she was carrying 5 cameras! We had a set after the proposal and it is PERFECT. I can't say a single thing that could be better. Thanks again Elana for your support and for capturing out moment in such an amazing way.
Sincerely:
Joaquín & Andrea.
