Jackie + Chris : Orlando, Florida Wedding

May 11, 2016 by Jensey 2 Comments

We were so excited when Jackie and Chris asked us to photograph their day!

A Disney weddings “Dream Team” was on hand with Tyler of Beyond Videography by our side and Carol, one of our favorite DFTW planners leading the day! When we learned Jackie and Chris also dressed up as Lilo and Stitch for Halloween one year, we knew we’d be a great match! <3

We showed up to a villa at the Boardwalk Inn to capture Jackie and her girls getting ready. Nate and I love to ease into wedding day photos by starting with photographing our couple’s wedding details. My favorite thing to photograph lately is wedding rings! We’ve had more and more couples keeping these in the bride’s room when we get there so I can get a variety of photos in natural light before the ceremony. :) It also gives me more time to play with the rings on some personal items, like invitations or other trinkets like this- a drawing by one of Jackie’s bridesmaids!

Jackie’s mother and maid-of-honor got her dressed, and then we headed out to the porch for a little “bridesmaid first-look.” So sweet! <3

How do you get two shy flower girls to bolt down the aisle? Bribe them by holding out juice pouches! <3

I’ve mentioned this before, but it’s common for unique things to come in two’s at our weddings. This week, we had two amazing choreographed first dances! You couldn’t even see them mouthing out “One two three, one two three!” This first photo is one I got of them practicing their first dance in their empty reception before guests came in…

… And then Nate grabbed these during their actual first dance! :)

I’ve never cried so much during a wedding toast!!! Jackie’s sweet college roommate was able to work in Snape’s “Always” into the end of her wedding toast. Cue my Hufflepuff tears!! :)

Meghan + Dave : Providence Biltmore Wedding

May 5, 2016 by Jensey 4 Comments

These two. <3

Admittedly, all I knew about Providence was that it was the setting for a favorite show of mine and my Mom’s when I was young, appropriately titled “Providence.” Well, I can officially say I love that little city, and the 60º weather was such a lovely break from the 90’s we were pushing in Orlando!

Meghan was the maid of honor at a Disney wedding we photographed a few years back. Thanks to the magic of social media, we stayed in touch with these two after the wedding. We were so excited when they got engaged, and even more-so when they asked us to come to Rhode Island for their wedding! :)

If you’ve received a holiday card from us the last two years, you’re already familiar with Dave’s talent and didn’t even know it!

Our card December 2014 :

Aaaaaannnnnnnnnd last year’s, which was maaaaaybe my favorite. <3

A true first for us: Our couple picking us up from the airport!!!!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Meghan and Dave looooove Dungeons and Dragons, and I looooved playing with the awesome dice for their ring photos!!

This was the fortune from a cookie a few months ago that they thought might come in handy for the wedding day. <3

Meghan’s dress in the back and two gifts from bridesmaids in front: One is a wine bottle with Meghan’s name engraved, and the other is a commissioned art piece by the crazy talented Ashley Taylor!

Meghan’s “something old” was so sweet- A hidden heart made from material from bridesmaids dresses she’s worn!

You may remember Liz from her and Bryan’s recent anniversary session in Disneyland! <3

Can you sense a mermaid theme with Meghan’s ensemble? From the dress that reminded her of Ariel’s pink dress when she had dinner with Eric to her scale polished ring fingers to her awesome Ariel-red hair, I loved all the nods to Meghan’s favorite princess. :)

Rachael + Don : Boardwalk Inn Wedding and Contemporary Resort Reception

April 26, 2016 by Jensey 4 Comments

She’s a teacher, he’s in retail. They brought their family and friends from Vancouver Island to Orlando for their wedding, and brought some gorgeous weather with them!

There were so many things I loved about their wedding, the biggest being that Rachael’s only “theme” was happiness! The cheery yellow bridesmaid dresses, floral popping with color (I don’t think I’ve ever seen Sea Breeze Point so happy!), special guests of the rodent variety at their reception, and Magic Kingdom fireworks at the end of the night all brought this sweet dream of a wedding to life.

Only three days newly wed, meet Rachael and Don and enjoy my favorites from their wedding day! <3
