Shannon's return to the Lahaina side of the island stirred bittersweet emotions, marking her first visit since the devastation. Today held special significance as she journeyed to meet me for their long-awaited engagement photoshoot, a session postponed three times by rough weather conditions.

The skies seemed like we were going to be rescheduling a fourth time, yet just as they arrived at the location, a miraculous transformation unfolded. Clear skies emerged, unveiling a breathtaking rainbow as indisputable sign of resilience and hope.
