MELBOURNE CBD ENGAGEMENT- CLARISSA + ANKIDO

Clarissa and Ankido’s engagement session unfolded like a love letter to Melbourne. With Clarissa’s eye for architecture and design, and Ankido’s appreciation for fine art, cinema, and animation, the city’s textures and details felt like a natural extension of who they are. We wandered through the heart of the CBD — the GPO, a beautiful historic arcade, hidden laneways, and a cosy café — all bathed in soft golden-hour light that made every moment feel quietly cinematic. The evening ended surrounded by close family at ARU, a South East Asian restaurant with a warm, refined ambience, perfectly reflecting their shared love for food, travel, and experiencing the world together.
