University of Maryland Surprise Proposal | College Park, MD | Austin and Pakeeza

Surprise proposal and engagement photos at University of Maryland on McKeldin Mall

This University of Maryland surprise proposal was one of my favorites from last year! Austin had recently been accepted into a graduate program, and he told Pakeeza that he wanted photos to celebrate the big accomplishment. When in reality he had an ulterior motive for this photo shoot 😂

This was just my second time on the University of Maryland campus, and I’m so excited to go back! (I actually have another proposal scheduled there later this year.) The McKeldin Mall or quad area is absolutely beautiful - tons of grass, a cascading fountain, and the iconic McKeldin Library building at the top. Tons of great options for engagement photos just in that one area!

I love this view for a proposal! Such a perfect spot to get engaged.

These two were cracking each other up the entire session.

How stunning is this engagement ring?! Austin did a great job picking it out.
