Robyn + Jake : Our Lady of Perpetual Help Ceremony + Ridgeway Country Club Reception in Germantown, Tennessee

February 26, 2014 by Jensey 7 Comments

You can read about my love for Robyn in my post about her engagement session here.

I find the older I get, the pickier I get about people around me. Wait- That sounds sort of awful, let me start over. You know when you love someone so much that no matter who they choose to spend their lives with, that person can never quite match up to your love and admiration of your friend? And it’s not that you don’t like who they choose to marry, it’s just that you adore your friend so very much that no one could ever quite match up?

Well, Robyn’s wedding was extra special for me, because the second I met Jake, he reminded me so much of Nate and I was immediately as in love with him as I am with Robyn. These two truly have something special and seem to share that “thing” Nate and I have- I really look forward to seeing a long, happy happy happy marriage between these two kids. :)

Robyn and Jake were married at Our Lady of Perpetual Help in my hometown, Germantown, TN!

Right after Robyn and Jake’s first look, we drove them to Oaklawn Gardens for some portraits. There’s a very cool feeling about photographing weddings where I grew up- Here’s to many more Memphis shoots! :)

The Cone Family : Brooklyn Home Family Session

February 17, 2014 by Jensey 3 Comments

If you’ve ever seen our beautiful website or if you’re reading this post on our blog, you’re more familiar with this amazing family than you know! Meet Justin and Lu, the ridiculously talented (and adorable) faces behind our entire brand. Justin and Lu took our rag-tag website and branding and transformed it into the experience it is today. It’s been years since our re-design and I still smile when I see our website. Every now and then I find myself falling in love with our intro video all over again, and hovering my mouse over my photo on our “about” page to watch leaves fly. Or re-read Huck’s bio. I smile when I catch a glimpse of our embroidered logo on my camera strap when shooting a wedding. Justin and Lu truly transformed our business and are the best of the best- We’re just lucky enough that they picked us to be their wedding photographers almost five years ago! :)

I don’t have the words to describe how much I love these faces, so I’m just gonna say they truly make me feel Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! We’ve referred to them as “Julu” for years, and last year, they welcomed perfectly-named Julian into the world. Ever since we learned of Lu’s pregnancy, I knew she’d be giving birth to the coolest baby ever. When we learned Julian was a “he,” I couldn’t wait to buy his first pair of baby Converse!

Out of all of our friends, Julu are hands down the coolest. They’re the kind of people you want in your family so they have to hang out with you a few times a year, because you feel infinitely cooler and smarter and more creative just being around them. They’re also added to my list of friends that make me hate the layout of the United States, because clearly New York was placed way too far from Tennessee and Florida. :(

I was thrilled that our Toronto wedding last summer was just a short flight to NYC, which meant we’d be able to meet Mr. Julian for some photo time on our way home.

It’s impossible to pick favorite photos when it comes to this family, so just assume every single photo comes with a caption of “Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaavorite! <3” :)

Justin and Lu started a Facebook group before Julian was born, which was genius. I love the idea of not flooding someone I knew from 10th grade French with a gazillion photos of a someday kiddo. Anyway, this was their cute header from that page…

… And one of their ridiculously talented friends made these for them as a gift!
