Cody & Mandi | Branson Proposal Photographer

October 19, 2022 by Virginia

BRANSON PROPOSAL PHOTOGRAPHER

Cody & Mandi’s Branson proposal was one of my favorite proposals of 2022! Cody planned an absolutely great proposal! Not only did he surprise Mandi with a ring at Top of the Rock, he also surprised her with her family! She had no idea they had followed them to Top of the Rock to witness the proposal! If you’re looking for a Branson proposal photographer, head on over to my contact form. I photograph more proposals in Branson than anyone else, and I absolutely love doing it! I would love the opportunity help you plan and capture that special day!

I love capturing that special moment!

 

A lot of our proposals are at Top of the Rock right by the chapel, and that’s where Cody wanted to propose! Top of the Rock is gorgeous, and after the proposal and engagement photos, most couples have dinner reservations at the restaurant right there. At sunset they also shoot off a cannon which is pretty cool, and is a great end to a memorable evening.

Cody & Mandi are such a cute couple!

It isn’t always possible to capture a sunset like this, but the universe worked with us for this proposal!

 

TOP OF THE ROCK PROPOSAL

Getting down to the chapel at Top of the Rock can be a little confusing for first time goers. Cody and Mandi somehow ended up coming down some rocks and onto the golf course that borders the chapel area, and to this day none of us are sure how that happened! I watched them come down the golf course from the restaurant area and approached them to let them know the gates would be locked and they’d have to climb over. I have to say that climbing over a fence in a dress is impressive, but Mandi did it with ease! Once they were over the fence, I went back to blending in and pretending to photograph random things. Cody then led Mandi over to the area he wanted to propose at, and the rest is history!

This isn’t the first time I’ve had to approach a client that I was supposed to be “hiding” from, and it won’t be the last. Thankfully, I am pretty quick on my feet and just pretend to be a friendly stranger helping out with whatever issue has popped up for the proposal. I once had to approach a client at Top of the Rock and pretend I was waiting for a family because the elevator to the chapel was closed and our originally agreed upon area wasn’t accessible. I kind of gestured to where would be the best spot for photos, and said that the view was “pretty” over on that balcony. Thankfully that client picked up on my hint and that proposal also went off without another hitch while his soon-to-be fiancé had no clue I was there for them!

Have I mentioned proposal and engagement photos are my favorite?

I was so excited when the sky gave us this beautiful sight! Congratulations Cody & Mandi!!

 

Even though it was the middle of July, it was the perfect evening for photos! We got super lucky with some overcast and that allowed us to get some awesome photos we can’t normally get when the sun is out, and we also lucked out with an incredible sunset!

Their mom always has the best ideas and props for some fun photos, and I think they turned out great! Don't be surprised if there's another sneak peak from this session later in the week because we got so many awesome photos! 😄 Who else is ready for summer!?

Yesterday had us a little nervous with the rain pr Yesterday had us a little nervous with the rain predicted in the weather, but it all worked out perfectly for Jason's proposal to Ellyn! Their photos came out stunning, and it was tough for me to narrow down my favorites for their sneak peak! I also made sure to capture a special moment with Ellyn and her mom, since it was Mother's Day! Congrats to Jason and Ellyn! It was so fun working with you both!!

Thankfully I had availability, and even though it showed rain all day, I always seem to get really lucky and the rain always clears up for my photoshoots, and we were able to get some great photos of these sisters! We had such a blast capturing these memories! ☺️

I thought a couple of these deserved a different style of editing than I normally do (don't worry, I always include the regularly edited versions as well in my final galleries!)

Would you believe that I drove in a very low visibility downpour the whole way to this session, only for the rain to disappear 5 minutes before arriving, giving us pretty much exactly the amount of time we needed with no rain to get all the photo combinations they wanted!? 😄 I work fast, but luck was on our side! We got some great photos for the Brake Family!

I promised George and Henry that I would make them a special "moon" photo when they wanted photos on this giant rock. Since I haven't been to the moon yet, I had to come up with my best guess as to what it would look like if I took their portraits there! Hopefully they like it! 😆
