Pink door with welcome mat
Jon & Alison’s story is a modern-day fairy tale romance! They first “met” when they matched on a dating app. Jon reached out and Alison replied, but due to some technology issues, Jon didn’t receive her message. That could have been the end of the story … just another missed connection.

But it wasn’t!

A short time later, the two matched on a completely different dating app. Talk about a sign, right?! Jon & Alison started talking and made a date to meet in person. It was supposed to be a low-key date for just drinks, but they clicked instantly. Drinks turned into dinner and hours of conversation. Jon drove Alison home that evening, and as he pulled away from her door, he knew. He’d just met the woman he was going to marry!

I loved capturing Jon & Alison’s connection at their charming Arcadia home and in the Phoenix desert. I can’t wait to photograph their wedding day, when the next chapter of their love story begins!
