She sent a message that changed her life. It was the message that everyone hates sending. The message that everyone hates getting. The Facebook message we all know so well. The one that says I-lost-my-phone-please-send-me-your-number. But what most saw as another routine cell phone message, he saw as an opportunity. An opportunity to reconnect with a beautiful girl he hadn’t seen in two years. And it worked out better than he ever could have planned.
Andrea and Ryan were probably the last two people on earth who thought a Facebook message would be the catalyst for their love story, but love works in mysterious ways. They were soon inseparable, and when Ryan left for the army, they knew what they had was too good to give up. While he was in basic training, they wrote each other every day for six months and counted down the days ’til their ten minute phone call on Sundays. Their relationship continued to grow, and just months after Ryan graduated top of his class with high honors, we had the honor of capturing their fairytale wedding. Andrea and Ryan, thank you for letting us be a part of this new chapter in your lives. Here’s to you!
