I met Renata, Jonathan, and their two puppies at Early Mountain for their engagement session last fall and it seemed like no time at all had passed before we were at the venue once again, but this time for their wedding! Renata and Jonathan met online and if Renata were telling the story, she’d tell you that Jonathan seemed too good to be true. She thought he was a serial killer at first because he seemed too kind. Haha! But as the months went on and their dates increased, her worries were settled and she realized he really was her dream guy. He was everything she’d ever hoped for in a man — kind, gentle, and an animal lover. Renata is fun and outgoing, will make you laugh within the first five minutes of knowing her and Jon is soft-spoken, down-to-earth, and has such a warm personality. The two of them are the perfect match and they bring out the best in each other. Renata said she always thought if she met someone online, she’d have to come up with a different love story to tell people but now she can’t help but share the real story because she’s nothing but proud of Jon and how they met. I guess that’s what love does to you.

Renata and Jon, what an incredible day you had for your wedding! It’s one I’ll never forget and I thank you for bringing me along! I hope these photos always remind you of the love you have for each other, even in the darker days! Love you guys!
