Faye and Endalk were meant for each other. Their story will make you believe in fate.
On our way to the San Francisco waterfront for their engagement photo session, they described the amazing tale of how found each other. Endalk grew up in a traditional African villages with thatched huts, that they said you have probably seen on TV or in the pages of National Geographic. Faye's childhood was also spent in Ethiopia, however, chance did not bring them together at that time. It wasn't until Faye flew down from Washington state, where she later lived, and Endalk drove from Sacramento, to attend a party held in Santa Cruz, that they saw one another for the first time. And when they met, they just knew. It was love at first sight.
Since meeting, their lives have been filled with joy and romance. Recently, Endalk surprised Faye with a trip to the Bahamas, and while vacationing there and enjoying the blue skies, sandy beaches, and blissfully clear water, he took advantage of this most beautiful setting, and proposed.
To commemorate their engagement, we spent a gorgeous spring afternoon with them in San Francisco's Union Square and also along the waterfront. Seeing them together in these photos, you can just feel the strength of their love for one another. Talk about romance! Faye and Endalk define it!
