Samantha + Quinn : Wedding Part II

July 25, 2012 by Jensey 1 Comment

Continued from Sam and Quinn’s Wedding Part I. :)

Sam and Quinn held their ceremony at Sea Breeze Point at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn.

It was an emotional (and sweaty!) one. :)

Before we knew it, a huge storm began to move in. During group photos, my Mom texted to let us know there was a tornado warning in the Disney area, and it was hailing in Celebration! We raced through the group photos the best we could.

I do love the ominous background the storm gave us, though! :)

Sam was a total trooper through it all- We could hear the thunder rolling in and I kept asking if she wanted us to just make a run for the lobby, but she kindly demanded we keep taking photos. :)

Nate’s favorite. :)

My favorite. :)

Samantha + Quinn : Wedding Part I

July 24, 2012 by Jensey 4 Comments

We don’t hear stories like this too often anymore, but Sam and Quinn were high school sweethearts. :) Sam loves Disney and Quinn loves Sam, so the decision to have a Disney wedding didn’t come as a surprise to anyone.

Unfortunately Walt Disney World still doesn’t allow for outside photographers to shoot events in the park, so we were only able to shoot the wedding day up until the reception. I’m so honored that Sam and Quinn brought us along even though we couldn’t cover the whole day.

While I’m loyal to the Disney resorts, I have to say that the rooms at the Wyndham Grand Orlando Resort in Bonnet Creek were pretty amazing. Love the view from Quinn’s room!

Sam getting ready for their tea ceremony.

Sam and Quinn held their tea ceremony in Sam’s room at the Contemporary. I can’t believe this is only the second one we’ve ever shot!

Sam and her brother are incredibly close- When I found out he bought her wedding gown for her, I nearly melted! :)

Goooooorgeous!

The bridesmaid dresses reminded me of a modern day Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather. :)

First look time! Quinn was so excited. :)

You have to come back tomorrow to see part II! :)

Liz + Bryan : Wedding Part II

Continued from Liz and Bryan’s Wedding Part I. :)

I love a good daytime exit!

Thank you to the random guests who offered their surrey for a few photos! :)

I love how well their colors worked with the Atlantic Dance Hall.

For their first dance, Bryan’s friend crooned “That’s All.” So sweet.

My favorite thing about Disney weddings? All the little kiddies that come up and compliment the couple. :)

Mad props to Liz and Bryan who instead of a “first look,” gave us tons of time after the reception for some photos around the Boardwalk Inn. We were able to get shots like this… Any New Girl fans out there? ;)

Favorite.

We ended photos at a place near and dear to my heart, the Bellevue Lounge, where they ended the night with best friends and drinks.

I don’t have a photo of it, but the night ended with us getting a giant, spontaneous group hug from Liz and Bryan’s bridal party! It was pretty much wonderful, and we left on a warm fuzzy overload. Liz and Bryan, WE LOVE YOU! Let us know whenever you make it to Nashville! :)
