No Clue – Austin & Mia’s Big Island Proposal Portrait
Let’s talk about Austin. Specifically, let’s talk about how he pulled off a surprise proposal with the stealth of a rom-com ninja and the emotional payoff of a season finale kiss.
Austin and Mia’s Big Island proposal portrait took place at Old Kona Airport Beach, where lava rocks meet golden sand and the sky can’t decide if it wants to be pink, gold, or just impossibly dreamy. It was the kind of evening that makes you feel like something big is about to happen. Spoiler alert: it did.
Austin had it all planned. Every detail. The location, the timing, the “act casual” vibe. He even channeled serious spy energy, coordinating everything behind the scenes so Mia wouldn’t suspect a thing. Meanwhile, our photographer played paparazzi-in-hiding, waiting for the exact moment when Austin would drop to one knee. Mia had no idea…
And when he did? Oh, she said yes. She absolutely said yes.
Mia’s reaction was everything: surprise, joy, maybe a few happy tears, and that look you give someone when your life is about to change—in the best possible way. It was intimate and emotional and totally perfect. It was exactly the Big Island proposal portrait Austin wanted for her…
After the big moment of their Big Island proposal portrait, they strolled the beach together, hand in hand, glowing from head to toe. The beach continued to show off, and the lava rocks and waves made the most dramatic, romantic backdrop for their newly-engaged portraits. These two have been highschool sweethearts since 2015!
Congratulations, Austin and Mia! Your Big Island proposal was so thoughtful, so special, and so full of joy. Thank you for letting us be part of your first “yes” in forever!
