The lovely couple, John and Jaynel, are both writers, and met at the Association of Writers professionals. This sparked a long-distance friendship with John in Utah and Jaynel in San Francisco. With a relationship that finally, evolved into love, John and Jaynel were engaged during Christmas of 2010.
A few years before they met, Jaynel was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. Throughout all of her trials with MS, John has been at her side. Their story and love is so inspiring and really made us feel lucky to share the day with them as their San Francisco wedding photographer.
