Irina and Hunter both attended the UCLA Anderson Full-Time MBA program, and they met during a school ski trip. After the cops put an end to the onesie party at the outdoor lodge area (Irina was a bunny rabbit and Hunter was an alligator), the group tried to find another place for the after-party. After changing out of their onesies, the group brought loudspeakers and alcohol to the hotel arcade where they quarantined themselves. As Hunter navigated his way through the crowd, he saw the bright blonde hair of a 5'1" Russian beauty named Irina. He asked her to dance and the rest is history!
Irina and Hunter's never-ending adventures took them across the US this past summer: LA, Vegas, the Grand Canyon, back to LA, Miami, and then to the Florida panhandle on Hunter's family vacation. On the final evening of the Seaside trip, Hunter brought Irina down to the beach to "look at a turtle's nest." Hunter was worried Irina wouldn't want to walk to the spot because she doesn't do well in the heat, but they were blessed with an ocean breeze and relenting sun that made the whole experience magical. Hunter surprised Irina with a photographer who captured the moment and put Irina and Hunter to work, capturing 200+ stunning photos in a variety of romantic and athletic poses. We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you. See you in LA!
