ARE GETTING MARRIED
We met at work while building an art exhibition, surrounded by long days, shifting plans, and shared moments. What began as simple conversations gradually grew into something more—an ease and understanding that extended beyond the work itself. By the time everything came together, so had we—what started as something temporary became something lasting.
