COUPLES: Sail Boat Proposal on San Diego Harbor

A bright and sunny day, a lovely 40ft sail boat touring San Diego harbor, and a surprise proposal!  There is absolutely nothing I didn’t love about this day.  The groom contacted me earlier in the week and we arranged for myself and my husband (as decoy) to be on board before they arrived.  Just another couple sharing a romantic boat ride!

I love photographing proposals and I’ve been doing so many of them lately. LOVE.  Enjoy the sweetness….

  • A row of docked boats and yachts lines a marina, with calm water in the foreground and palm trees, buildings, and a clear sky in the background. The text "JENNIFERDERY.COM" appears in the lower left corner.
  • A woman in a green dress sits on a boat next to a smiling man in a light blue shirt and sunglasses, with docks and industrial buildings visible across the water in the background.
  • A man in sunglasses and a light blue shirt and a woman in a green dress smile and laugh while relaxing on a sailboat, with water and a distant shoreline in the background.
  • A man on one knee places a ring on a woman's finger on a sailboat, both smiling joyfully. The scene is set on a sunny day with calm water and city skyline in the background.
  • A person stands on a dock spraying water, with a large white tent, boats, A dolphin jumping mid-air, and birds in the background near the shore of a marina. The water is calm, and buildings are visible in the distance.
