“...no.”

Kristin & Bartek met in the bustling town of Chicago.

The first time they laid eyes on each other was at Bartek’s college apartment in the South Loop. The occasion? A Halloween party. Bartek was rockin’ the 80s dad short-shorts with a mustache, and Kristin was elegantly dressed as the Queen of Hearts. While Kristin & Bartek met this night, it was not until they happened to run into each other at another social function a few months later — a winter party — after that evening they were inseparable.

Kristin & Bartek finished their studies and started their careers in Chicago, amongst the best of friends, and after a few years decided to take a chance on a new city.

The two now reside on the coast of California in San Francisco at Ocean Beach.
