What do you get when two pediatric dentists decide to celebrate their love on the Las Vegas Strip? A whole lot of laughter, iconic Vegas backdrops, and the most fun vibes ever.

Yielin and Ju Yong are based in Las Vegas, and I got to know them through my husband’s dental residency. They’re such fun and hilarious people. When they told me they were getting married in a more traditional fashion in Korea, I knew we had to make their engagement photos more carefree and wild! They wanted their engagement session to feel true to their time in Vegas—but with a little extra sparkle (and a milkshake). We kicked things off at the Bellagio just as the sun was setting, with a mix of soft and strong light reflecting off the fountains and their smiles setting the tone for the whole evening.

As the lights of the Strip began to glow, we strolled over to the Promenade for some flash photos and an In-N-Out milkshake moment—honestly, the most iconic west coast treat. These two were non-stop giggles, totally in their element, and so fun to capture. They pulled out some dramatic poses and made it look so good. In one phrase, they slayed.

We wrapped the session at the Flamingo Hotel & Casino, where the wind was wild but the champagne was flowing. Under the pink and orange glow of the Flamingo’s iconic lights, we captured a finale full of joy, motion, and that perfect mix of glam and grit that Vegas is known for.

Yielin and Ju Yong, you made this session such a blast—I loved every second of documenting your love in your current city. Congrats again on your recent wedding in Korea! Wishing you both all the sweetness and spark your life already clearly has.

       

From golden hour at the Bellagio to champagne and flash photos under the neon glow of the Flamingo, this Las Vegas engagement session with Yielin and Ju Yong was packed with fun, laughter, and unforgettable moments.
