Photographer's Bay Area Same Sex Wedding Styled Shoot Turns Surprise Proposal and Elopement

CONCORD, Calif. - Dec. 3, 2014 - PRLog -- Angie Capri (owner of Angie Capri Photography) began daydreaming about her recent same sex wedding styled photoshoot over a year ago and began planning and coordination about 4 months ago. The main thread running throughout the story she wanted to express was about breaking tradition, finding your true love, following your heart, being truly happy and expressing all of these truths that everyone deserves to experience freely. She immediately searched for a same sex female couple who were open and willing to be a part of this very special project, and she was so excited when introduced to Kylie Beren & Andrea Baer by a colleague.

Fast forward.... Just one week before the shoot Andrea asked if Capri would mind if she actually proposed to her girlfriend Kylie during the photoshoot and without hesitation Capri exclaimed, "hell no I wouldn't mind!! Holy moly I secretly wished for something like this!" She explains they were so excited and emotional that neither of them got much sleep that night. To top it off, Andrea had no idea the florist who was already collaborating on the project is also an officiant!!

Capri walks us through the big day... "The team checked everything off the photoshoot list first saving the best part for last to allow Kylie and Andrea to enjoy and focus on their special moment without getting back into photoshoot mode. Just when Kylie thought she was done for the day I shouted out code phrase to the team, 'Oh no, we forgot to take pictures with our officiant!!'

Everyone scurried with their secret intentions. Andy had someone play their favorite song, Andy approached Kylie, they danced as she whispered to Kylie, she got down on one knee and asked. Kylie said yes!! They got married right on the spot. It was so emotional. We were all crying. I'm sure it's all still sinking in for the girls (which happened only 4 days ago as of today). None of us will ever forget this amazing day!

The obvious connection and love Kylie and Andy feel for one another is breathtaking, they are most definitely the perfect pair to help express the underlying theme of this entire project as it started and finished it with the biggest bang none of us could have imagined or anticipated. They are so incredibly happy to have found one another and Andy told me, 'we have never been more sure of anything in their lives'. Congratulations you two bad-ass chicks!! It has been an honor for us all to be a part of your love story and wedding day!"
