Melissa + Josh : Williamsburg Winery Wedding

May 12, 2014 by Jensey 2 Comments

I am head-over-heels in love with the Williamsburg Winery for a wedding venue! Melissa and Josh had their hearts set on a sunset ceremony on the vineyard, but the weather had other plans. I’m sure it would have been beautiful, but there was something romantic about their candlelight plan B and now it’s hard imagining their day going any other way! :)

Soooooooooo, how’s this for a getting ready room?!?!

Nate got a little wet getting these photos, but I’m so glad we got at least some outside photo time. :)

Tiffany + Jimmy : Maitland Art Center Wedding in Orlando, Florida

May 5, 2014 by Jensey 6 Comments

Tiffany and Christian are high school sweethearts who met while skipping school one day. :)

When they first contacted us about photographing their wedding, they didn’t have a venue nailed down yet and we were more than happy to suggest some of our favorite spots. I love that they chose the Maitland Art Center, which is such a special spot for me and Nate, and this was our first time shooting a wedding there!

There’s something special about this venue, from the mossy trees to the hidden outdoor chapel, and Tiffany and Christian made it even more awesome with their unique touches to the day.

Tiffany and Jimmy made sure every part of their wedding represented them, and their ring box was no different…

Sealing their marriage with a secret handshake they’ve had for 15 years? FAVORITE.

Instead of a petal toss, they high-fived their guests on the way down the aisle. :)
