Capturing the Engagement of Fox News’ Jacqui Heinrich and Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick in Valensole<\/h2>

Every year, I look forward to lavender season with so much joy. These magical weeks are when I get to meet people from all over the world and photograph them surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of Provence\u2019s lavender fields.<\/p>

For 2025, I had scheduled my Valensole sessions between June 30th and July 14th<\/strong>. But a weeks before the season started, I received a special request from a client named Brian. He wanted to propose to his girlfriend on June 29th<\/strong> \u2014 a day before my planned sessions.<\/p>

I absolutely love photographing surprise proposals. They are one of life\u2019s most meaningful milestones, filled with emotion and raw beauty. So, without hesitation, I decided to arrive one day earlier to help Brian create an unforgettable experience.<\/p>

Ahead of the session, I shared a detailed plan and tips for staging a discreet, paparazzi-style proposal. The night before, I visited the fields to choose the perfect sunrise location \u2014 one of my favorite moments I like to call the golden hour<\/strong>. I sent Brian the plan and crossed my fingers for beautiful light.<\/p>

On the morning of June 29th<\/strong>, everything came together. As the sun began to rise over the endless rows of lavender, Brian and his girlfriend arrived in Valensole. Hidden between the blooms and with a drone flying above, I began photographing the moment.<\/p>

And then, it happened \u2014 Brian dropped to one knee and asked his girlfriend, Jacqui, to marry him. It was romantic, emotional, and simply magical.<\/p>

What I didn\u2019t know at that moment was who I had in front of my lens: Fox News\u2019 senior White House correspondent Jacqui Heinrich and U.S. Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick<\/strong>. 1 week after the session, Jacqui shared their story with me \u2014 and I was genuinely touched and honored.<\/p>

The images from that morning speak for themselves: timeless, full of light, and overflowing with love. It was a once-in-a-lifetime moment, and I\u2019m deeply grateful to have been chosen to capture it.<\/p>

Thank you, Brian and Jacqui, for your trust. You are such a lovely couple, and I wish you both a lifetime of happiness.<\/p>
