The Question – Karlos & Cerrena’s Maui Proposal Portrait
If there were a sport for secret proposals, Karlos would take gold. Seriously—this Maui proposal portrait session was executed with the stealth of a rom-com ninja and the emotional payoff of a Nicholas Sparks finale.
Karlos and Cerrena have been together for 3.5 years, a Bumble success story turned real-life fairytale. They’d visited Hawaii twice before, but this was their first time on Maui. And oh, what a debut it was. Karlos, knowing his beach-loving girlfriend wouldn’t suspect a thing, orchestrated the ultimate surprise proposal, with our photographer hiding like a highly trained love operative until the exact moment Cerrena turned to find him on one knee.
And she said yes!
Cue the cheering. Cue the tears. And cue our photographer emerging from the shadows with ninja-level timing and a camera full of magic!
Our Future Ahead
After the big moment, the glow only got stronger, literally. The sunset lit up the sky like it was in on the celebration, turning their already-perfect beach session into a cinematic dream sequence. Karlos and Cerrena looked absolutely incredible, wrapped in love and golden light, and fully leaning into their new just-engaged era.
They soaked up the beauty and joy of the moment, fully embracing each other and their future ahead.
Their sunset portraits were straight-up magic. Barefoot in the sand, hand in hand, they soaked in the moment, stood on the shoreline as the sky deepened into blush and coral and finally, a soft lavender twilight.
Karlos, you nailed it. Cerrena, you glowed like the sunset was rooting for you. Together, you made the kind of memory people write novels about!
Congratulations, lovebirds. Your Maui proposal was stealthy, stunning, and full of heart. And these portraits? A forever kind of keepsake!

And yet, somehow, it turned out to be one of the most heartwarming, genuine, and joyfully sweet evenings we’ve had the honor of photographing. Now, Jake had one specific request: the classic
