Anna + Rob : Downtown St. Augustine Engagement Session

January 9, 2014 by Jensey 1 Comment

When I first met Anna I didn’t even know it- Nate and I were at Space Mountain when I asked a cast member a question and she later tweeted at me. :) Fast forward a few months and Anna’s writing us, asking us to photograph her wedding! There are so many reasons to love these two, but the biggest reason I’m looking forward to their wedding is that it’ll be our first at Orlando’s Bella Collina! I’ve wanted to photograph a wedding there for years, and Anna and Rob are the perfect first couple!

We photographed their engagement session around downtown St. Augustine, where Rob proposed. :)

Yeah, they’re super tough to photograph. ;)

See you this fall, friends!! :)

Krystal + Ben : Disney Cruise Line Nassau Engagement Session

August 12, 2013 by Jensey 4 Comments

Krystal and Ben met ~five years ago at a small Christian college in Pittsburgh. Ben was a football player and Krystal a cheerleader. :) Ben’s family is from the west coast and Krystal’s is from the east coast. Since half of their guests would have to travel to a wedding regardless, Krystal and Ben decided to make it exciting and have a wedding on the Disney Cruise Line. I think they made the perfect decision, and it was so fun to document their adventure!

The day of their engagement session happened to also be Krystal’s birthday! And I just have to put it out there that Krystal is the one bride I’ve ever bonded with over mutual love for Mary Kate and Ashley’s Holiday in the Sun! It’s because of the movie she wanted to spend her birthday going to Atlantis, and I was totally jealous.

Krystal and I basically spent most of her session discussing how Holiday in the Sun is the most underrated film of our generation. Yep, I went there. ;)

Love all the color in Krystal’s dress! :)

We had to be back at the boat by a certain time so Krystal and Ben could go swim with dolphins, so we hoofed it to this awesome location Krystal found called the Queen’s Staircase.
