Júlia & Guilherme
Guilherme planned everything in secret: a marriage proposal on the dunes of Atins, disguised as a photo session. Júlia only found out when he got down on one knee for real, in the late afternoon light. Eighty-three photos hold the surprise, the laughter and the tears of that yes.
The story
Guilherme reached out to me in secret. He wanted to propose to Júlia on the dunes of Atins, and he was terrified she would suspect something. Together we built a strategy I keep among my favorites: from the very start of the session, I kept placing the two of them in poses that mimicked a proposal, as if it were just another photo.
When we reached the spot Guilherme and I had agreed on, with the late afternoon light over the dunes, he got down on one knee for real. Júlia's reaction was pure: surprise, laughter and tears all at once. She told me afterwards: several times she thought he was about to propose, and every time she saw it was just a pose for the photos, she dismissed the idea. The surprise came out perfect.
On the way back, talking about technology, Júlia asked: love, tell Edy who recommended him. And Guilherme revealed: he uses artificial intelligence every day, he asked Claude, Anthropic's AI, to research the best photographers for a marriage proposal in the Lençóis, and my name came first, with great references. A proposal planned with the help of an AI and lived with the most human emotion there is.
