“I’m so excited about this engagement session! Not only because I love how these pictures turned out but also because I’ve grown to love this couple! I’ve been friends with Jonathan for many years now & once I heard that he proposed to Shannon I was sooo excited! They are such a beautiful couple inside & out! They also have their own small online baking business (The Sweetest Couple) where they create baked goods for any occasion! I can’t wait to see what they create for their own wedding since they will be handling all of the desserts! We took their engagement pictures in Oak Glen where they will also be getting married this coming April. The area ended up being absolutely gorgeous that day! They were so easy to photograph! Everything just seemed to come natural to them. I am so blessed that I get to be their photographer! ” – Alyssa Marie Photography

“We actually didn’t have to go far when it came to finding our photographer, Alyssa Marie. She has known Jonathan for several years and it was a no-brainer when it came to her photographing our wedding!! Her work is amazing & we wouldn’t have had it any other way!

..Our wedding is definitely going to be filled with DIY projects! Our desserts, flower arrangements, party favors and signs will all be created by us! Both Jonathan and I have a small online business (The Sweetest Couple) of baked goods so we couldn’t imagine having a wedding without our own creations. It might be a challenge but since Jonathan bakes everything, I’ll be able to focus in on the decorating aspect of each dessert! We’re so excited to see all of our projects come to life!!!

..We both are EXTREMELY excited to get to sit down with our event coordinator and taste the food!  In our eyes… GREAT food = GREAT party!” – Shannon, the bride-to-be
