Pre-wedding session in Auckland {engagement photography}

It was a beautiful pre-wedding session with Jess & Rob in Muriwai Beach {Auckland}. Couple made their way from Hamilton to West Auckland beach for their engagement photography. Im truly appreciate al the time they spent to get to the gorgeous landscapes of Muriwai Beach with rocks and ocean and beautiful sunset.

Luckily weather was fine, so we can walk and talk and enjoy the atmosphere, going with the flow, to capture beautiful, emotional and real moments for this stunning couple.

Couple shared their story: “We first met on yacht week in Croatia in 2016. Jess completed her masters project at the University of Auckland September 2017 and have been together since (with some long distance in between whilst Jess was finishing studies). Jess (originally from UK) then moved over to New Zealand in December 2019.” The proposal: “Rob proposed in Rarotonga in June 2021 on a island opposite Muri beach, just after we had been snorkelling with turtles.”

Jess is from UK and Rob is a real kiwi, they are planning to fly to UK for their wedding celebration, or wait till family can come from overseas safely to enjoy their special day.
