We went strawberry picking for the first time together with Dominic and Milha while we were in Houston.

We had only been dating for a few weeks at the Superintendent's gingerbread making party when this photo was taken.

Our first Christmas dinner together at the Air Force Academy.

Elyce's first Chorale concert in support of Johnpaul.

We decided to take some photos in the local sunflower field after a day of interning in Tennessee.

Ring dance photos featuring our matching party sleeves.

Our very first date at the local ice rink in Colorado Springs.

An impromptu photoshoot at Amelia Island beach.

Kayaking on the West Bay in Galveston.

This photo was taken moments after we found out we each received our #1 job preference. Elyce was assigned pilot and Johnpaul was assigned weather officer.

This photo was taken just 50 days before we graduated.

We both commissioned from the United States Air Force Academy in May of 2025.

Johnpaul decided it was as good a time as any to pick Elyce up before departing on a boat tour of the Okefenokee Swamp.

This photo was taken by Ella Bowman, one of Elyce's bridesmaids who joined us in visiting the Hall of Mirrors in the Palace of Versailles.

We received 60 days of leave after graduating from the Air Force Academy and we decided a trip across Europe was in order - starting in the UK.

After the UK, we traveled west to visit France stopping in Versailles, Paris, and finally Normandy.

This photo was taken in Scotland, one of our favorite stops. The hairy coos (as the natives call them) were a highlight.

This is us kayaking in Cinque Terre Italy, when we got lost and made it out alive we knew we could make it through anything.

Dips in Rome and trips away from home.

A month before and she doesn't suspect a thing :)

A day before our two-year anniversary, Johnpaul decided to make it permanent at the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra.

Please enjoy a small sample of our engagement photos.
