Erin + Brendan : Anniversary Session at The Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise

July 27, 2016 by Jensey 3 Comments

It was a long shot, Erin thought. She and Brendan planned their 5 year anniversary trip to the beautiful Banff, Canada. Still, she reached out to see what the chances were of us doing an anniversary session with them during their trip.

Oh, and Brendan didn’t know- Our shoot would be Erin’s gift to him!

Well, wouldn’t you know, the stars aligned and we were already planning to be in nearby Seattle days before their visit, so we were actually able to make it happen. :)

Erin and Brendan got to the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise after a long day of traveling, and we thought it would be best to get the surprise part out early so we didn’t have to worry about bumping into them around the hotel. Erin texted us every chance she could, telling Brendan that she was writing her parents. They grabbed a table for a late dinner, we headed down, and we will never, ever, ever, ever forget Brendan’s reaction when we showed up!!

The next morning was our session, and I’m so, so, so in love with these photos and this couple. Happy five, friends! <3

The funniest thing happened when I posted on Facebook that we were about to cruise- It turned out we knew 8 other people on board! It was fun bumping into friends on our way to and from dinner, and we even got to meet up with our past bride Erin and her friends for ice cream at Vanellope’s as soon as we wrapped up our wedding day. :)

Deanna + Michael : Disney Cruise Line Wedding on the Disney Dream

July 20, 2016 by Jensey Leave a Comment

Destination weddings are always an adventure, but that increases 10 fold when it’s on a Disney Cruise.

We were thrilled when Deanna and Michael asked us to join them on board to document their wedding! This was our second wedding to shoot on the Disney Dream, the first being Krystal and Ben’s. Krystal’s ceremony took place on Castaway Cay, but this was to be our first wedding in the atrium of the Disney Dream. It was absolutely stunning!

The best part about this wedding were the people getting married. Deanna and Michael became quick friends, and their families welcomed us with open arms! Deanna’s family has cruised more times than they could count, and a large majority of their guests were friends they’ve made while on Disney cruises!

Nate and I were able to photograph their legal ceremony while the boat was docked at Cape Canaveral, and then shot their welcome party too. <3
