Chile · Marriage Proposals · Outdoors
I hide in plain sight: just another traveler on the tour, another diner at the restaurant, or someone strolling through the park with a camera. We plan it together so the moment is completely real: the genuine surprise, the trembling voice, the hug that can never be repeated. All you have to do is kneel in the right spot.

My Style
I’ve spent more than 15 years photographing weddings and love stories across Chile in a documentary style. A proposal is different from any other session: there’s only one chance, one instant, and it can never be redone. That’s why my work starts long before you arrive: we choose the spot together, the angle, the exact hour of light, and we plan how I’ll be there without being noticed.
When the moment comes, my camera is already ready and I’m already invisible. You live the surprise exactly as you imagined it; I capture the real reaction — the nerves, the tears, the yes. Afterward, we continue with a short couple’s session so you also get that first hug as an engaged couple, at a calmer pace.
I work alongside Os, my husband and assistant, coordinating every logistical detail — even in remote places like Patagonia or the desert — so the only thing you need to worry about is the ring.
Locations
From vineyards 40 minutes outside Santiago to the granite towers of Patagonia: choose the landscape that best represents your story.
Packages & Pricing
Short sessions near Santiago, full-day expeditions to the desert or the mountains, and a complete weekend trip for couples who want to live the proposal as a real adventure.
Between rows of vines and golden sunset light, 40 minutes from Santiago. I position myself at a distance so your partner notices nothing, and I capture the proposal exactly as it happens, followed by a short couple’s session among the vines.
San Cristóbal Hill at sunset, Bicentenario Park, or that corner of the city that represents your story together. A convenient option, quick to coordinate, with the same discretion as any farther destination.
Sunset over the Pacific, the hillsides of Valparaíso, or the sand at Algarrobo, with the ocean as witness. I document the proposal from a discreet vantage point, then we continue with couple’s photos as the sun goes down.
I accompany you all day during your Valle Nevado tour, among the snow and the mountains, waiting for the exact moment — which could happen any minute of the day — to capture the proposal without my presence being noticed.
Valle de la Luna, salt flats, or the clearest starry sky in the world as your backdrop. I travel to San Pedro to document the proposal in one of Chile’s most breathtaking landscapes, with time to explore more than one spot during the day.
Granite mountains, glaciers and turquoise lakes as witnesses to the yes. I travel to Patagonia to capture the proposal in Chile’s most epic setting, planning the exact spot ahead of time based on the day’s light and weather.
A full weekend traveling with you — Friday, Saturday, returning Sunday — to the destination you choose: Patagonia, Atacama, southern Chile, or wherever you’ve dreamed of saying yes. I don’t just document the proposal, but the whole adventure around it: the trip, the anticipation, the celebration afterward.
Prices do not include taxes. Transfers within Santiago are included in the Santiago packages. Flights, lodging, entries to national parks or ski resorts, permits and transfers outside Santiago are not included and are the client’s responsibility.
Extras
Add them to any package when you book.
I arrange the round trip from Santiago along the mountain road, so you don’t have to worry about driving or snow chains in winter. The full day takes 8 to 10 hours.
I coordinate the vendors you’d like to add to your proposal: makeup, flowers and musicians. You tell me how you picture it, and I make sure everything arrives on time and in the right place.
What Couples Say
«Lised has a unique way of entering our intimacy with respect. We never felt the camera, and when we saw the photos we relived every moment exactly as it was: real, honest, and deeply ours.»
Dani + Jaz
«It was more than a photo session. It was a space of trust where we could just be ourselves. The images capture exactly what we felt that day, and that is priceless.»
Cami + Seba
«Every time I see the photos, that lump in my throat comes back. Lised captured moments we didn’t even realize had happened, and they’re now the most treasured memories of our life together.»
Domi + BrennerHow to Book
Message me through the booking button: tell me the date, the destination you have in mind (or if you need help choosing one), and how you picture that moment.
Together we define the precise spot based on light, weather and the destination’s logistics, and plan how I’ll position myself so my presence goes unnoticed.
Your date is officially booked once the retainer and the electronically signed contract are received.
We go over the signal for knowing when the moment is coming, the backup plan in case the weather changes, and any special detail you’d like to include (family, friends, music, the ring). If you’d like to personalize the proposal even further, I share detailed information about trusted vendors: florists, makeup artists, videographers, and more.
On the big day, all you need to worry about is kneeling in the right spot. I’ll be there, invisible, capturing the real reaction from the very first second.

Good to Know
Click Book Now, fill out the form, sign the contract electronically, and pay the retainer. Your date is officially secured once the signed contract and retainer payment are received.
We plan the exact spot where I’ll be positioned in advance, using a telephoto lens and a distance that lets me stay unnoticed. In many destinations we also coordinate a natural cover story (a «landscape» or «travel» photo session) to justify my presence without raising suspicion.
Yes. I can suggest the destination, the time of day with the best light, and the logistics, based on my experience photographing each of these places. I don’t organize the proposal itself, but once the session is booked I share detailed information about trusted vendors to help you personalize it: florists, makeup artists and videographers, among others.
Weather is part of the adventure in destinations like Torres del Paine, Atacama or Valle Nevado. If conditions are unsafe, we work together to find the best alternative within the same trip, as established in the contract.
Transfers within Santiago are included in the Santiago packages. For Valle Nevado, San Pedro de Atacama, Torres del Paine and the Weekend Trip, flights, lodging, park or ski resort entries, and local transfers are not included and are the client’s responsibility.
The Casablanca, Santiago and Central Coast sessions include approximately 60-80 edited photos. Valle Nevado, San Pedro de Atacama and Torres del Paine include approximately 100-150 photos. The Weekend Trip delivers all edited photos from the three days.
Your images are carefully edited and delivered through a private online gallery. The delivery timeframe is specified in your contract.
No. My editing enhances the photograph, not the people in it. I don’t retouch skin, alter figures, or modify physical features. The goal is to preserve the authenticity of the moment, creating timeless images that stay true to your experience.
Of course, it’s one of the loveliest combinations to document. Tell me the idea when booking and we’ll coordinate together where they’ll hide and at what moment they’ll join the celebration.
Every proposal is different. If you have a different destination in mind, need more coverage hours, or want to add a drone, video, or a second photographer, message me and we’ll put together a custom quote.
Yes. These six are the settings I know best and travel to most often, but I can travel to other parts of Chile too. Message me with the destination you have in mind and I’ll put together a quote.
Let’s Begin
Tell me the date you have in mind and the destination you’re dreaming of (or haven’t decided yet). I’d love to help make sure that moment is documented exactly as it happened, so you can relive it for the rest of your lives.
