Carlos’s Marriage Proposal to Jazzmine | Shadowbrook Santa Cruz Wedding Photographer

Jazzmine said YES to Carlos’s proposal!! This was a such a special day for them — Carlos chose their 6th anniversary to pop the question! Isn’t that sweet?! And with the scenic view and a romantic foggy day on top of the hill, Shadowbrook was a perfect place for this exciting moment.

Congratulations Jazzmine and Carlos! Wish you two many happy days to come!!
