A Lake Tahoe Proposal on the Wild Goose II

There are proposals, and then there are moments that feel like they were written just for you. For this couple, that moment happened on the open water of Lake Tahoe aboard the historic Wild Goose II, under blue skies, soft cloud filtered light, and the kind of breeze that makes the Sierra Nevada feel like it was put there just for days like this.

It started on the east shore, where the water is impossibly clear and the mountains rise straight up from the lake. As the Wild Goose II made its way across the water toward Garwood's, the light was perfect soft, warm, and flattering in the way that only Tahoe can deliver. The boat moved steadily, the couple completely unaware of what was waiting for them.

As they arrived, the first surprise was already on the shore, family, gathered and ready, there to witness the proposal and celebrate with the happy couple. Tears, laughter, and pure joy followed.

But the surprises weren't over. Upstairs at Garwood's, dozens of friends were waiting and when the newly engaged couple walked through the door, the room erupted. The look on her face said everything.

Lake Tahoe has a way of making moments feel bigger than life. Add a stunning historic boat, flawless light, and the people you love most and you get something truly unforgettable. It was an honor to be there to capture every second of it.
