Today we have a love story all the way from Ghana. Photographer, Adonai of Adonai Studios and style blogger, Nana are getting married. The couple shared their love story and photos from their pre-wedding shoot with us.
Enjoy!
We met in 2014 at the University of Cape Coast Campus in my fourth year and his service year. We first saw each other when a classmate asked me to star in a a skit he was working on at the time. He also happened to ask Nana to come take a few shots of our rehearsals one day. Prior to that, I had heard his brand name “Adonai Photos” then on campus a couple of times but I didn’t have a name to the face.
During the rehearsal, my classmate mentioned “Adonai” and I turned sharply to face him and I asked “ah you’re the Adonai?” He said yes and that was the end. I remember glancing over at him and thinking, Oh, wow! he’s cute. That thought evaporated immediately though when he reviewed my performance and told me that I suck. lol
Over the next few months, we went via series of knowing and unknowing each other, until the following year April, I called him one afternoon on my way back from a bank close to his hall.
The rest, as they say, is history. We spent any and every available time we had together – whether online or in person. We became practically inseparable and by the time I graduated and moved to Accra, we knew we had something special and were both in it for the long haul.
Years later, post everything life threw at us, (which we handled like bosses BTW), we now find ourselves both happily and eagerly planning our wedding. We could not be more excited to celebrate the next step in our journey with each of you, who have played (and will continue to play) such an important part in our adventure!
So bring your dancing shoes and get ready to party, we can’t wait to celebrate with you!
