Chrissy + Crit : Boardwalk Inn Wedding

April 20, 2016 by Jensey 8 Comments

What’s that? A full blog post just two days after our most recent wedding? Ok! <3

This fourth grade teacher and archivist met online. Crit’s first trip to Walt Disney World was with Chrissy, where he popped the question. What better place to get married than in this special place, turning their wedding into a big family vacation? :)

Everything about this day was perfect, from the freakishly-beautiful April weather (seriously, Orlando- This year has been amazing!) to Chrissy’s ensemble. I loved her lace sleeves and succulent bouquet, making her look so ethereal. They couldn’t have been sweeter or their families kinder; it was the most perfect day to kick off wedding season!

Ready to swoon? When it was Crit’s turn for his vows, he started by telling us his “favorite napkin story,” because who doesn’t have one of those, right? ;) Well, Crit was out to dinner with a friend shortly after he and Chrissy started dating, and was telling his friend about how smitten he was. His friend pushed a little further, asking flat-out if Crit thinks Chrissy is the girl he wants to marry. Crit said yes, and his friend pulled out a napkin and wrote :

9:37pm

9/17/2010

Crit decided he was going to marry Chrissy!

And then signed it. Crit kept that napkin for six years, knowing it could come in handy some day, particularly on his wedding day. Chrissy never even knew about the napkin until he pulled it out from his pocket. So. stinking. sweet. <3

Chrissy and Crit, it was an absolute honor. Enjoy the rest of your honeymoon!!! :)

Shortly after their ceremony, a stranger walking by handed the newlyweds this gift card! How random and cool is that?!

Violet + Eli : Orlando Family Portrait Sesssion

March 24, 2016 by Jensey Leave a Comment

*You can see our last two sessions with this sweet family here and here!*

Violet was only one when we first photographed her, and now she’s this amazing, silly, charming big sister.

This was our second time meeting Eli, and the biggest thing these siblings have in common is that they become infinitely cuter with every session!

I can’t believe it’s been ~8 years since Cynthia and Shane’s wedding day. Talk about “Root Lifers!”

My favorite part of the session was realizing that Eli didn’t remember us from our last session; I can’t blame him, it was a while ago and he was younger! But I went to put them in place, and he looked at me completely freaked out. “How do you know our names?!” I reminded him that we played and took photos with them a couple years ago and he goes, “Oh, good. I was worried for a second!” *I* think he was confused because we didn’t re-introduce Nate as “Miss Bobbi!”

Maaaaaaybe it’s just us, but we think Eli almost looks a little like a young Joseph Gorden-Levitt!

One guess as to who taught them this! (Answer at the bottom of this post!)

May I just lament for one second that Violet was this tiny the first time we met her?!?!?

Alexis + Rich : Orlando Florida Wedding Photographer

March 8, 2016 by Jensey 4 Comments

Alexis and Rich take bi-yearly trips to Walt Disney World with best friends for Epcot’s Food & Wine Festival, so it only made sense for their wedding to take place then, too! They both love photography but are hardly in photos together.

This was one of the happiest, most colorful weddings we’ve ever been a part of. Alexis was completely inspired by Erin and Rick’s colorful wedding (read about that one here!), and used a lot of the same simple elements to make a big, colorful impact, like the tissue paper pom poms and streamer exit. :)

I looooooooove when family members get ordained to perform wedding ceremonies. Doesn’t get more personal and heartfelt than that! :)
