Zoe + Ellis

It all began with a Zoom call in August 2021. Ellis and his housemates were on the hunt to fill a vacancy in their Lower Pac Heights apartment, while Zoe was in desperate need of a new place to live. Enter Craigslist. An ad was posted, a few emails were exchanged, and then came the fateful Zoom call. A few weeks later, Zoe was moving in and none of them could have guessed just how much that simple decision would change their lives.
​
Ellis and Zoe quickly grew close as friends. They bonded over late-night kitchen conversations about work and life, frequent beach bonfires at Ocean Beach, and a relentless urge to explore their city. What started as an easy friendship kept deepening, until it became clear that there was something more.
​
A year and a half later, the realization hit: There was nobody else they’d rather spend their time with. Ellis finally made his move, and from that moment on, everything fell into place. The last three years have been filled with visits east to see friends and family, unforgettable dinners in San Francisco, hikes and Hook Fish in Marin, quests to find the best pastries in the Bay Area, and celebrations of big life milestones - 30 (!), promotions, law school, an engagement...

What began with a housemate search and a chance Zoom call has grown into a beautiful relationship, and they can’t wait to celebrate the next chapter of their story with all of you.
