Being in love is a beautiful alchemy—it's about becoming the fullest, happiest version of yourself, yet simultaneously finding a depth you never knew existed with another soul. It's the secure feeling of knowing your partner is your safe harbor, the source of your truest laughter, and the co-author of your best stories. June and Kate's story is precisely this kind of beautiful, profound discovery.
From the vibrant streets of Davao City to the tranquil highlands of Toril, June and Kate's pre-wedding session was a perfect reflection of their heartfelt journey. The day was filled with easy laughter, stolen glances, and a love story that began not in a fairytale, but in a classroom.
How They Met
June: "In the classroom."
Kate: "We were in the same school back in college. I met him when I was in 1st year 2nd semester, we were classmates at that time."
Their connection, simple and serendipitous, grew from shared lectures into a lifetime commitment.
Defining Love
Their perspectives on love beautifully complement one another, highlighting both the foundational and the active nature of their bond.
June: "Love is patient, love is kind."
Kate: "For me, love is a journey that requires both partners to actively show up for each other. To support and to understand each other's growth in every aspect and to choose each other when things get tough. Encouraging and lifting each other up to have a positive and calm mind. 🤗"
What They Love Most
When asked what they cherish about their partner, their answers illuminated their deep mutual respect and affection.
June loves that Kate is "sweet and caring."
Kate cherishes that June is "so thoughtful. He makes me a priority not a problem. I love how he handles the situation and solve it in a nice way. 🥰"
One of the sweetest moments of their session took place in an unexpected, yet utterly charming location: the Cake Galerie.
June: "In the Cake Galerie, I didn't expect that we can shoot inside the café and it was heartfelt as it was a Studio Ghibli inspired coffee shop."
Kate: "My fave part was when we were in Cake Galerie. I love the vibes and the owner was very approachable and friendly."
As their photographer, it was such a fun whole day discovering June and Kate—their candid glances, their heartfelt laughter, and just their sincere love story. What I liked best about this couple is how wonderfully natural they were.
My highlight during the shoot was when we went to the highlands of Toril, Davao City, at The Red Barn. Here, they truly made the space their own. They enjoyed a picnic, shared the warmth of a bonfire, and simply owned the place and the night.
Theirs is the kind of love story that has withstood time—they are committed, supportive, and so completely, beautifully in love. Watching them together confirmed that their journey is one of immense happiness and depth.
