Have you been day dreaming about having a photo session with the Roots? Maybe you’ve been looking at a blank spot on the wall where you could be showing off fabulous photos of your family? Maybe you didn’t know about us when you got married and were left with less-than-beautiful wedding photos? (It happens!) Maybe you just want a head shot session for yourself? Maybe you’re just dying to see Nate climb a tree, or you wanna hear Jensey’s goofy way of making our brides laugh?

If you think you might fit in one of those categories, we wanna know! In celebration of our pretty new website and blog launching, we’re giving away a free portrait session* and image disc. (Valued at $700)

All you have to do is take a photo of you and whomever you want photographed and write a little something about why YOU should be in front of our cameras! :) We can’t wait to meet you!

Please send all entries to yaygiveaway@rootweddings.com . Thank you!

*Your entry must be received by Thursday, May 13th at 11:59pm EST. The winner will be announced on the blog on Monday, May 17th. Session date is based completely on our availability. Session doesn’t have to take place in Orlando or Florida, though travel fees may apply. :)

Looking at this photo makes my heart full! I love you guys! :)

Justin + Lu : Just Married

We were so excited that the winter after their wedding, Nathan and I were able to go visit Lu and Justin at their home in NYC. :) They were such good sports to get all dressed up again so we could shoot around the city. :)

My favorite. :)

The holiday lights make me SO happy! :)

Poor Lu- It was absolutely freezing!

April + Josh = Huxley

Surely you remember April and Josh from their stunning elopement that was a featured wedding on our old site! :) Just incase you don’t remember, here’s the background on these guys: I went to high school with April in Tennessee, and we were ecstatic that they asked us to photograph their elopement. It was their wedding that inspired us to elope. :)

When we happened to be in New Orleans a couple years ago for an engagement session, April got ahold of us and asked us to shoot some maternity photos. I’m pretty openly squeemish around pregnant bellies (when I’m around pregnant women, I get an uneasy feeling like I’m on the set of a science fiction movie). So after letting her know how I felt, we were able to plan out a maternity shoot that I LOVED photographing.

Well, last year we went back to photograph Ashley and Mark’s New Orleans wedding, we HAD to get in touch with our favorite couple and schedule a family shoot (and finally meet Huxley!). We happened upon this little, perfect alleyway to shoot. We shot there for maybe an hour and a half, and I could not be happier with these photos.

Tell me this isn’t the best looking family you’ve ever seen!
