Why choose proposal photography in Gramado?
A proposal in Gramado is usually planned for the view rather than the town: the glass platform of Skyglass Canela, hanging over the Vale da Ferradura, with a sunset deck and nothing but forest below. It is a dramatic place to kneel, and the picture everybody imagines has the sun on the horizon behind the couple. Whether that picture is possible depends almost entirely on the month, because the platform keeps office hours.
Worth knowing about Gramado
Skyglass Canela opens daily from 9:30 to 18:00, and in Canela the sun sets before about 17:50 only between early May and late July, falling to around 17:30 in late June. A proposal timed to the actual sunset on the Skyglass deck is therefore a winter proposal; from August to April the sun goes down after the platform has closed, and the proposal moves to the late-afternoon light.

FAQ — Proposal photography in Gramado
Can we propose at sunset at Skyglass Canela?
Only in winter. Skyglass Canela closes at 18:00, and the sun sets in Canela before that only from about May to July, at around 17:30 in late June. In other months a proposal on the Skyglass platform near Gramado happens in the late-afternoon light, before the closing time, rather than at the sunset itself.
How is a surprise proposal planned in Gramado?
A surprise proposal in Gramado is planned around a place with a fixed timetable, such as Skyglass or a Canela park, so the photographer arrives first, waits in position and starts shooting at an agreed signal. The time, the spot on the platform and the signal are settled by message with the person proposing the day before.
