California engagement session surrounded by sparkling trees

Anna-Mae + JeweliePronouns: She/Her; She/HerOrientation: Lesbian; LesbianPhoto Session Venue: Thomas F. Riley Park, Coto De Caza, CAAnna-Mae and Jewelie met while celebrating L.A. Pride in 2019.“I noticed the most gorgeous woman I’ve ever laid my eyes on, having the time of her life,” wrote Anna-Mae. “I needed to know her name and buy her a drink. We have been inseparable since!”Anna-Mae was only in town for Pride, however, so the couple began a long-distance relationship between California and Hawaii. They flew back and forth to one another about every other month.“During these times, we unlocked so many levels to our relationship,” Anna-Mae said, “from trust and communication to passion-filled unconditional love.”Eventually, Anna-Mae moved to California to be with Jewelie. They decided to get married while out to dinner together at a well-known LA restaurant called Perch.“We look forward to growing old together,” Anna-Mae said, “and having our own beautiful legacy to build on and maintain.”Search our directory of LGBTQ+ inclusive vendors.jQuery(document).ready(function($) {SABAI.init($("#sabai-embed-wordpress-shortcode-2"));});
