In this episode of Shooting Spitballs, we break down how to film a wedding proposal on a pier — from choosing the right gear to handling high-pressure moments when emotions run high.

We talk through the technical setup for capturing such a once-in-a-lifetime moment, including how to frame the scene, manage sound, and even deal with a surprise client request: live streaming the proposal in real time!

But it’s not always smooth sailing… What happens when people on the pier don’t want to be filmed and start getting angry? We share the creative solutions, lessons learned, and how to avoid common pitfalls when filming proposals in public spaces.
