About Couple


“HOW THEY MET”


November 16th, 2023

The story of Jeano and Aurore began on November 8th 2023 when a hospitalized and arguably delirious patient told Aurore how he had “met his wife online on Match in 2002 and she was the best thing that has ever happened to him”. He excitedly told her to “go online and find you one, he is out there.” Those words echoed in her mind like poetry and though exhausted beyond words, at 21:00 that same night, she went on to sign up for Match. 


A few days later, on November 14th, 2023, a gentleman named Jeano liked Aurore’s profile. On November 16th, two days later,  he said hello and the rest is history. Serendipitous indeed, since Match apparently does not match members who reside greater than 250 miles away. So, however Jeano was able to be shown Aurore’s profile residing 2250 miles away is anyone’s guess. They were however gladly each other’s serendipity. How would two otherwise strangers find each other? Though strangers, they both knew very early on that they had found the greatest kinship, love and most importantly friendship they will ever know. 


After a year and half of long distance courtship, and many trips back and forth, the two have decided to join their lives together. They are both honored to share their special day of April 18th, 2026 with the people they love, respect and value so dearly.


Fun Facts: 

- A missing person milk carton advertisement exists for Jeano, just in case he went missing because she had trapped him and sold his organs on the black market.


- Jeano was an athlete/jock in high school and played multiple sports. Meanwhile Aurore was an avid bookworm and a member of the national honor society and the poetry club.


- Jeano owns a square foot of land in Scotland, making his rightful title “Lord Jeano Picchioni”. This then means Aurore will become “Lady Aurore Picchioni” upon marrying.

    • Utilize movement such as arc shots, push-in/push-out, tracking, etc 

  • Plan commute accordingly (travel times/duration, traffic density, weather conditions, etc).

    • Confirm you have the accurate location. If using GPS, type in the name of the venue with the city and verify it's the right place, avoiding the possibility of incorrect directions or destination.

     

  • Call the on-site contact(s) upon first arrival, stating that you're the videographer from Pluvia Studios. Make sure you are guided to the first shooting location on time to set up and start filming.
