Why Propose in Ottawa?

Ottawa is a city where historic charm meets natural elegance, making it a quietly powerful place to propose. From the iconic Parliament Hill at sunset to the peaceful beauty of the Rideau Canal, this capital city offers a variety of proposal settings that feel both intimate and unforgettable.

Couples love Ottawa for its seasonal versatility—romantic fall foliage, magical winter backdrops, and floral gardens that bloom in spring and summer. Whether you’re dreaming of a cozy engagement during Winterlude or a golden-hour moment in the Arboretum, Ottawa’s beauty elevates your proposal into something truly cinematic.

And when you work with Capture the Yes, you don’t just get a photographer. You gain access to our team’s expertise, exclusive private locations, and curated support designed to make your proposal feel effortless and unforgettable.

What’s Included in Our Ottawa Proposal Services

Capture the Yes offers luxury proposal photography, cinematic videography, engagement sessions, and full-service planning—each one tailored specifically to the Ottawa region.

Every proposal photography session begins with a personalized consultation to ensure the moment reflects your relationship and vision. Our photographers are trained to anticipate real emotion and capture it with a timeless, editorial quality. You’ll receive 50+ professionally edited, high-resolution images, with a sneak peek gallery delivered within 24 hours.

Our videography services include a cinematic highlight film, professionally edited and colour-graded to preserve every detail of the proposal. You’ll also receive a vertical reel edit, formatted for Instagram or TikTok, and a finished video that allows you to relive your yes moment again and again.

We also offer full-service proposal planning for those who want us to manage everything behind the scenes. This includes concept development, styling, location selection, timeline coordination, and on-site execution. From the big picture to the smallest detail, we handle it all so you can focus entirely on your partner and the moment.
