Continued from Kimberly and Mark’s Yum Yum Truck Engagement Session AND their engagement session aboard Royal Caribbean’s Oasis of the Seas. :)
Kimberly and Mark decided to have their ceremony at Marriott Frenchman’s Reef Resort on St. Thomas. There were so many unknowns going into the wedding day and Kimberly was amazing and we never once saw her sweat it…. Even though we only had a certain amount of time to get off the boat, get cabs to the Marriott, check into the hotel, have hair and make-up done for Kimberly and her bridesmaids, get married, then take cabs back to the boat before “all aboard” time. Even when the cab got a flat tire. (More on that lovely story later!)
See? Only real smiles. She’s my favorite. :)
Randomly enough, this was actually our second wedding at Marriott Frenchman’s Reef. Our first was Julie and Christopher’s wedding!
Kimberly had these adorable shoes picked out but opted for true-to-her Sperry boat shoes instead. I love her even more for it!
Kimberly had some of my all time favorite “getting ready” photos. She was just so darn excited!! :)
Kimberly’s dad couldn’t make it to the wedding, but he was there every step of the day via iPad. Nate was helping hold it here so her dad could see all the girls at once. :)
Paparazzi shot with the adorable Samm of Imprint Cinema!
My #2, #3, and #4 favorite getting ready shots below. First, we have Kimberly excitedly slipping into her wedding dress using her self-proclaimed “t-rex hands.” Swooooooooooon!
Excited fists. <3 <3 <3
My mom gave me away over the phone, so Kimberly’s “iPad Dad” put a lump in my throat for sure. :)
As I mentioned earlier, this was our second time photographing a ceremony at Marriott Frenchman’s Reef. So weird because in a few short years, the ceremony site changed so much!
Kimberly unraveled her personal vows to Mark. <3
And then they literally “tied the knot.”
Woohoo! Part II coming tomorrow. :)

What great images! I love the ipad for her father! That made me tear up! Great work as always!
how gorgeous is she?? Stunning bride, how happy the groom must have been! and yay for technology! Gotta love it sometimes! Gorgeous dress too, and loved the shoes, I love bows! looks like a perfect day~ and Jensey, how adorbs are you?? Can’t stand it!
How awesome that technology allows loved ones to “be there” when they can’t. So glad Kimberly’s dad was able to give her away.
Love! The photo after excited fists made me teary!
LOVE these, guys! You’re incredible.
I too, had a lump in my throat when I saw the IPad shot. Jensey, that day (your wedding day) will always hold a special part of my heart and memory of your and Nate’s special day. I was honored to give you away (by phone). These pictures are Wonderful! Every time I see the pictures you both have shot at a wedding, I see so much passion. I know your hearts are one, doing “the dance” as I call it, capturing every moment and showing us the true feeling of the day for those to see and hold in their hearts forever. :)
Beautiful photos. As a Photographer in St Thomas I look to photographers like you for inspiration. http://www.virginpixel.com
