Wedding photographer Kaplong has treated fans to a gorgeous new series of photos featuring Charlene Ruto and her husband-to-be Isaya Yunge, and the internet has not recovered since.
The cinematic pre-wedding reel, posted to Instagram on 5 November 2026 and tagged to @_kaplong, @manifesterbrand, @charleneruto and @isayayunge, was filmed at a luxury outdoor estate.
It opens and closes with elegant title cards bearing the couple’s names and their “CI” monogram, the same branding that has appeared across their wedding materials.
Charlene and Isaya’s three-look photoshoot
The shoot features three distinct outfit changes, each more eye-catching than the last. First up, the couple step out in coordinated all-black formal wear.
Charlene wore a flowing long-sleeved black gown with a high neckline, while Isaya complemented her in a black suit, white shirt and a black cane with a gold handle.
The pair walked hand-in-hand down a stone path and shared tender moments, including Isaya kissing Charlene’s hand.
A close-up of her sparkling engagement ring and a sweet moment petting a white horse together rounded out the opening sequence. For their second look, the couple moved into matching burgundy outfits adorned with crystal details.
Charlene’s fitted maroon dress featured diagonal lines of crystals across the bodice and down the sleeves, with Isaya dressed in a matching maroon suit.
A later frame in the same reel shows Isaya in a purple checked blazer, blue shirt and grey trousers, laughing alongside Charlene as they strolled across a manicured lawn.
The final look was arguably the most regal of the three. Both dressed in emerald green traditional-inspired attire with gold embroidery, Charlene wore a long gown with gold beading across the neckline and shoulders and a flowing train, while Isaya’s dark green suit featured bold yellow-gold floral embroidery down the side.
The sequence captured them dancing playfully as leaves fell around them and sharing a quiet embrace reflected in a mirror.
