Like all great modern love stories, Waverly and Michael met on a dating app. They quickly realized just how much they cared for each other, and fell in love fast and hard. Their mutual love for their city, the 49ers, and most importantly – food – propelled their relationship forward. The night before Thanksgiving 2019, Michael and Waverly were getting ready to go to dinner with their families when they stopped to gaze over the bay at the north end, where they would soon be living together. Michael expressed his everlasting love to Waverly and proposed right there under the city lights.

Waverly and I are best friends from college, and when she asked me if she could fly me up to San Francisco to take their engagement photos, a faster YES could not have come out of my mouth! We traveled around to the Palace of Fine Arts, the famous Baker Beach, and their all time favorite sports bar – The Final Final for their photos. We shared tons of laughs and enjoyed the perfect weather that California had given us that day, complete with drinks of course at The Final Final where the whole bar cheered for these two love birds.
