Central Park Winter Park set the stage for one of the most romantic proposal sessions I’ve ever photographed. Tucked away in the heart of Park Avenue, this iconic garden offers the perfect balance of charm, peacefulness, and soft morning light—especially before 9 AM. That’s exactly when Matthew surprised Fabby with the sweetest proposal, and I’m so excited to share it with you.
Matthew and Fabby first met while attending Florida State University. He’s originally from Georgia, and she’s from South Carolina, but their paths crossed in Tallahassee, and they’ve been inseparable ever since. Their recent move to Orlando—specifically the Baldwin Park area—has given them the chance to explore the city together. Naturally, Park Avenue quickly became one of their favorite spots, making it the perfect location for such a meaningful moment.
One of the best-kept secrets of Central Park in Winter Park is how peaceful it can be in the early morning. By arriving before 9 AM, we had the entire park to ourselves—no crowds, no distractions, just the two of them wrapped up in the moment. The soft light filtered through the trees, creating a dreamy glow as Matthew got down on one knee.
This is why I always recommend this location in the morning—especially on weekdays. The weekends, particularly Saturday mornings, bring a bustling farmers market that fills the area and makes intimate moments like this almost impossible to capture.
Fabby looked absolutely radiant in a flowy dress she found at Evereve—a boutique right on Park Avenue. The dress moved beautifully with every step she took, and it was the perfect complement to the gorgeous engagement ring Matthew had chosen for her. As they walked through the garden and along the cobblestone-lined sidewalks of Park Avenue, it was impossible not to feel the joy radiating from them.
After capturing their love story in Central Park and along the tree-lined blocks of Park Ave, Matthew and Fabby did exactly what I always recommend—celebrated! Surrounded by cozy cafes, boutiques, and great brunch spots, it’s one of the best places in Orlando to toast to a new chapter.
What made this session so special wasn’t just the beauty of the location—it was how deeply in love these two are. They couldn’t take their eyes off each other, and it was so easy to document their connection. Every laugh, every look, and every moment was so genuine. Sessions like these are such a reminder of why I do what I do.
