A dreamy breeze, open waters, and a moment that changed everything — this sailboat proposal on Lake Superior was straight out of a romance novel.


From the gentle sway of the boat to the golden light reflecting off the water, every detail felt intentional and magical. The couple shared laughs, champagne, and an unforgettable "yes" surrounded by nothing but sky and waves. The intimacy of this setting created a perfect space for them to just be together — no distractions, no noise, just love.


As a photographer, these quiet, emotional moments are what I live for. Capturing the surprise, the tears, and the raw joy made this one of my most memorable sessions yet.


We cruised along the coast with breathtaking views of Grand Marais behind us, documenting everything from sweet glances to post-proposal kisses. Every photo feels like a time capsule from this once-in-a-lifetime experience.


If you’re dreaming of a proposal that’s both adventurous and personal, a sailboat might be your perfect “yes” spot.
