Shin and Jason crossed paths three years ago and since then, their lives have never been the same. It was Jason's strength that had helped Shin go through all the changing seasons in life. His constant love and support have also enabled Shin to pursue her wildest dreams. "Throughout the years, our adventure has become more exciting and stretching yet more amazing and fulfilling in every sense of the word," Shin said.
For their engagement session location, the couple chose the Mornington Peninsula Coast, south of Melbourne, Australia. "The raw and rugged beauty of this coast, along with the breathtaking sunset, reminds me of the miracle of how our lives intertwined," said the beautiful bride-to-be. The lovebirds then enlisted the help of California-based photographer, Sally Pinera. "I knew that the session was going to be special. Not only because we would be shooting along the beautiful Melbourne coast, but also because I felt a tenderness and softness from Shin and Jason," she said.
Shin had prepared all the right elements for the shoot; dreamy outfits, a beautiful bouquet, even a meaningful quote handwritten in calligraphy. As the sun set beautifully on the horizon, Shin and Jason's photo shoot unraveled organically in such a whimsical and memorable way.
Interestingly, the lovely couple even formed a memorable bond with Sally and her husband, Robert. "We are so thankful for our beautiful photographer, Sally, and her husband, Robert, who not only captured our love and joy but also inadvertently inspired us with their marriage and enlarged the vision for our own," Shin explained.
