Jes + Aaron : Coronado Springs Anniversary Session

March 11, 2013 by Jensey 4 Comments

Nate and I weren’t able to photograph Jes and Aaron’s Walt Disney World wedding due to Disney’s outside photography rules. Lucky for us, Jes remembered us and when they took their first anniversary visit to Walt Disney World, asked us to come do a session with them. Anniversary sessions are my new favorite. :)

The story of how Jes and Aaron met is one of my all time favorites- They actually met in the orientation line for their freshman year of college. They both stood there in embarrassment while their mothers chatted for what seemed like hours; Aaron’s mom told him he needed to find a nice girl like Jes with a good family like hers, and Jes’ mom told her the same about Aaron. A few months later their paths crossed again during a game of “hallway ball diving,” and they were smitten. Eight years and one adopted penguin later, here we are! :)

We photographed Jes and Aaron’s anniversary session around Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort, which is where they got ready on their wedding day. This photo was taken outside of the room Jes stayed in on her wedding day. :)

Kait + Scott : Port Orleans Riverside Engagement Session

February 27, 2013 by Jensey 2 Comments

Kait and Scott’s engagement session was our very last shoot during our busiest week of 2012, and scheduled the day after one of our longest wedding days of the year. I also happened to be more sick than I’d been in all of 2012, practically a zombie sneezing and coughing my way through our weddings and sessions that week. Needless to say, I was so wiped out by the end of our trip and had to sit this one out- The first “work day” I’ve missed in years. I felt just awful, but Kait was so sweet and actually insisted I stay behind.

Nate did so well on his own and really knocked this one out of the park. Working with him has become such second nature for me and I depend on him to perfect poses I set up and finish my sentences- I’m not so sure I could ever do this on my own!

Kait and Scott met at ages 14 and 15, and I think it really shows through with how comfortable they are with each other!

Matthew + Family : Boardwalk Inn Family Session

February 26, 2013 by Jensey 3 Comments

Matthew was referred to us by his roommate Michelle who we’ve never gotten the chance to meet. We’ve been Twitter friends for a couple years now, and I’m so honored she passed her friend our way when he was in the need of a family session! :)

We met Matthew, Nathan, and TJ at Disney’s Boardwalk Inn during our busiest week of the year. We were quite sick, but I think we made it through successfully!

To be completely honest, Nathan and I had never done a shoot like this and had no idea what to expect. Most of our sessions are with parents and their school-age children, but we’ve been doing this long enough we knew we’d be fine. Nate and I had no idea we’d be working with such a loving, photogenic family, which Matthew styled perfectly for Disney’s Boardwalk Inn… I felt like we were on a Walt Disney World promo shoot with professional models. I mean, look at these three!!
