There’s something truly magical about a Lake Louise proposal. Between the glistening turquoise waters, the towering mountain peaks, and the fresh alpine air, it’s a setting that feels like it was made for love stories. For Tanvi and Akshat, it became the backdrop for one of the most unforgettable days of their lives—a perfectly planned and beautifully emotional surprise proposal on the lakeshore.
Akshat reached out to me while they were staying at the iconic Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise, letting me know he wanted to surprise Tanvi with a proposal during their trip. With the grandeur of the hotel behind them and the jaw-dropping views of the lake in front, he got down on one knee in the most cinematic way possible. Tanvi’s reaction was pure joy, and the emotion of the moment was so genuine and moving—it was truly an honour to capture.
There’s something so special about having your proposal photographed. The look of surprise, the happy tears, the laughter, the “yes!”—every second becomes a keepsake. And later, when you share the story with family and friends, you get to show them the exact moment your forever began.
Whether you’re staying at the Fairmont, hiking nearby, or simply exploring the beauty of Banff National Park, a Lake Louise proposal is something straight out of a fairytale. It’s a place where love feels amplified by the surroundings, and where the memories you create will live on not just in your heart, but also in your photos!
