Alex came into Dana’s life right when she had decided to stop looking for that special someone. She had turned 30 in June and decided to quit her job to manage a band. Alex, meanwhile, had recently moved back to California after traveling across South America, Australia and New Zealand to establish his next career venture in photography and filmmaking. He was asked by his long time friends from school, Allee and Niko, if he could capture content for their band, who happened to be playing alongside the other band that Dana was managing. That night, Alex would spot Dana from across the lot and they would first connect while setting up for the show, talking about their love for music and the friends who were performing. For Alex, that was it - he would spend the whole night editing photos and videos to impress Dana. She on the other hand, thought he was just a super nice guy and very good at his job...silly Dana! Some time later, Alex emailed asking if they could get together - Dana assumed, having given up on the LA dating scene, that this was a business networking meeting, and treated it as such. Giving it one last shot, Alex nervously invited Dana to a concert in what would officially be their first date and now anniversary. They spent the whole night talking and laughing and from that evening onward, they were inseparable and began intertwining their personal and professional lives. Over the course of 3 years and a global pandemic, Alex and Dana grew inseparable. In January 2021, Alex opened his own studio space and moved in with Dana that next month. Together they’ve completed many house and studio projects, truly building their life together, three bathroom remodels at a time. Seeing what they had and could create together, Alex surprised Dana by asking her to marry him with their families and close friends secretly watching nearby. We have been planning this day since and can’t wait to celebrate and begin this next chapter in our lives with all of you!
