Not every proposal goes perfectly to plan — but sometimes, that makes the story even sweeter. Ryan’s Croad Vineyard Paso Robles proposal to Casey was full of nerves, unexpected delays, and ultimately, so much joy.


Croad Vineyard is one of the most stunning proposal locations in Paso Robles. Tucked away in the hills, it offers private vineyard views and a gazebo overlook at the Proposal Corner, a perfect setting for saying “yes.”


The Proposal Story

Ryan had everything lined up, but when their Uber driver got lost, they ended up arriving an hour late. With little cell service, he couldn’t reach me and worried I might have left. Somehow, he played it off smoothly, telling Casey he was just calling a coworker who had helped “set up the experience.”

When they finally arrived, the stress faded away. Under the gazebo, overlooking rolling vineyards at golden hour, Ryan dropped to one knee. Casey’s reaction said it all—a mix of shock, laughter, and the kind of joy that makes proposals unforgettable.

Photographing the Experience

As a Paso Robles proposal photographer, these are the moments I live for. Proposals aren’t just about the perfect plan; they’re about capturing the real emotions. The anticipation, the relief, and the instant love that fills the air when someone says yes.

Documenting Ryan and Casey’s engagement at Croad was such a privilege. Every image tells their story: a little chaos, a lot of heart, and a whole lot of love.

Looking Ahead

Ryan and Casey’s proposal is a beautiful reminder that even when plans don’t go perfectly, love always does. I’m so honored they trusted me to capture such a milestone.

✨ This is why I love being a San Luis Obispo photographer — from vineyards to coastlines, there’s no shortage of unforgettable places to celebrate love.

If you’re dreaming of a Croad Vineyard Paso Robles proposal (or planning your own engagement), I’d love to help make the process effortless and photograph your story from start to finish.
