So a couple of weeks ago, when Alissa and Roman were in town for Lauri and Mikey’s wedding, I did a little session of the two of them because Alissa asked so nicely. Apparently there is a large blank spot on the wall that is waiting to be filled wiht photos, so I hope some of these will do the job. ;-)

Alissa and Roman have a very romantic story which I will share quickly because I have to run and I know someone really wants to see these. This past New Year’s, Jason and I hosted a party. Alissa was of course coming down from Brooklyn, and Lauri and Mikey asked if it would be okay with us if they brought Mikey’s friend Chris, and his “international friend” Roman. My parties have always had a bring whoever policy, so of course I was good with that. The more the merrier. Well, Roman and Alissa hit it off. But I think everyone thought there was obviously no way anything would come of it…you know…since Alissa lived in Brooklyn and ‘international friend’, Roman, is from Germany and currently goes to school in Arizona. We were all WRONG! Alissa and Roman became friends on facebook (making relationships possible) and then he headed to Brooklyn to visit her for a night before going back to Arizona. From then on they kept in touch while Alissa traveled to Venice, Italy to study for several months and until Alissa graduated from Pratt, got a job and moved to Arizona in July. CRAZY! Roman is a great, great guy. They are perfect together…and I’m so happy for them both!

This session was lots of fun. We explored the Art Museum area and South Street and gave Roman a taste of Philly. I think we got some fun photos too…although it’s hard not to with how cute they are together.

Ending with this one because I LOVE it. :-)
