I had the pleasure of photographing a surprise proposal in Dean Village, Edinburgh – an area known for its charming historic feel and natural beauty. Nestled alongside the Water of Leith, it offers a peaceful, picturesque escape from the hustle of the city.

Dean Village is one of the most unique spots in Edinburgh, loved by both locals and tourists. Its cobbled streets, centuries-old stone buildings, and tranquil atmosphere create a sense of stepping back in time. The Water of Leith adds an extra touch of nature to the area, making it a perfect spot for a proposal. Not far from Edinburgh Castle and the iconic Ross Fountain, Dean Village is a must-visit when exploring Edinburgh.

I had the exciting role of capturing this special moment, patiently waiting for the couple at a pre-arranged spot. The anticipation was thrilling, almost like being a spy on a secret mission! But then again, it’s not uncommon to be walking around with a camera in this beautiful city.

After the proposal, we took a leisurely stroll through the area, creating even more photographs full of love. It was an unforgettable adventure and a privilege to witness such a heartfelt moment in such a stunning location. If you're ever in Edinburgh, make sure to explore Dean Village – it's perfect for a romantic getaway, a photography session, or simply a peaceful walk along the river.
