Sometimes, a best friend turns out to be a soulmate. Such was the case with Julie & Henry.
These two amazing people have the sweetest story! Friends from church, they were the best of buddies for many years until one day, Henry decided to move from SF back home to Michigan. It could’ve been the anticipation of separation that caused these two to spend more time together. Whatever it was, when Henry returned to Michigan, the two of them found themselves emailing and texting non-stop. Over the thousands of miles between them, they couldn’t deny they were more than just buddies. Julie planned a trip to Michigan and the two anxiously awaited their first real “date” since they had defined themselves as a couple. :)
Eventually, Julie decided to move out to Michigan for grad school and they were finally reunited. And, well, we all know the happy ending to this tale. Now their future kids will also know that distance, patience, and a lot of laughter can be the ingredients for a wonderful love story.
Congrats, you two! I had a wonderful time photographing your wedding and I look forward to catching up the next time you guys are back to the bay area.
