Sharese and Jovan

Sharese admitted in her vows that if it weren't for the way she met Jovan, she wouldn't have prayed so hard about it.

After all, to the great amusement of their friends and family, they met on MySpace.

He was in school in Florida. She lived up here in Maryland. He saw her profile picture and decided to "say" hello with a message. They started writing back and forth, getting to know each other, realizing their families lived just blocks apart in Maryland. There was a connection, and she prayed about it every step of the way, before they finally met in person, before they finally declared themselves an item, before they started to think about a future together.

It was through all that prayer that she realized Jovan was the answer to those prayers, so when he asked her to marry him three years after that first online message, she said yes. So in front of their friends and family, they pledged their love to each other, reciting their own vows in a lovely, heartfelt ceremony in Maryland.

I had such a good time shooting this wedding. It was just so much FUN. Lots of laughing. Lots of affection and joy, not only between the couple but between their families, too. We wish this couple all the very best!
