Gregory + Alexis Rooftop Proposal
Gregory contacted me to photograph his rooftop proposal to his girlfriend Alexis. Recognizing the significance of the occasion, I anticipated it would be truly unforgettable. Little did Alexis realize, Gregory had meticulously planned an evening that would culminate in a life-changing question atop the stunning rooftop of the Thompson Hotel in Downtown San Antonio.
The Big Night
The evening began under the guise of celebrating Gregory’s birthday with a dinner. Alexis, unsuspecting, viewed it simply as a special night out for the two of them. Nestled in San Antonio’s vibrant Art District, the Thompson Hotel provided the perfect backdrop. With its chic design and breathtaking views, it set the stage for an extraordinary evening.
Every detail of Gregory’s proposal had been carefully orchestrated. Family and friends eagerly gathered on the rooftop, awaiting the couple’s arrival. Against the picturesque city skyline and the twinkling lights below, the atmosphere was nothing short of magical.
As Gregory and Alexis stepped onto the rooftop, doors opened to reveal a stunning display that took Alexis’s breath away. “Marry Me” shone brightly, adorned with vibrant balloons that added a whimsical charm to the scene. Overwhelmed with emotion, Alexis teared up at the sight.
Capturing the moment, I photographed Gregory dropping to one knee, presenting a sparkling ring under the rooftop lights. Alexis, filled with love and happiness, could barely contain her tears as she said yes. Family and friends erupted into cheers, enveloping the couple in love and congratulations.
The ensuing celebration was a joyful affair, marked by laughter and hugs against the panoramic backdrop of San Antonio visible from the Thompson Hotel’s rooftop. Throughout the evening, candid moments of the couple and their loved ones were captured, each photograph narrating a tale of love, surprise, and the beginning of a new chapter.
Gregory’s elaborate proposal was a testament to his deep affection for Alexis, and I felt privileged to be part of such a momentous occasion. The Thompson Hotel’s rooftop, with its breathtaking views and elegant ambiance, provided the perfect setting for a proposal that was truly magical.
XOXO,
