Emily + Alexis + Makayla : Orlando, Florida Family Session

November 13, 2016 by Jensey Leave a Comment

‘Tis the season for family sessions!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We are so pumped to have our calendar so packed full of Orlando family sessions in this gorgeous weather. We love the excuse to get outside and meet some new faces! *Especially* when those new faces are THESE three faces!!

I MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAN. <3

Makayla’s face in the middle slaaaaays me! <3

And thennnnnn the mouse ears got pulled out!!! <3

All three of these girlies could be Gap Kids models, but Miss Emily was a pro at working the camera! :)

Mom was on top of bribing with small, quickly edible snacks (one of my favorite tips for family sessions!!), but this photo of Makayla’s Twizzler mouth is maybe my favorite! :)

V family, we had SO much fun. Thank you for the belly laughs! :)

Maddie + Liam : Grand Floridian Family Session

November 10, 2016 by Jensey 1 Comment

I always miscount these things, but I’m about 80% sure this was our 9th(!!!!!!!!!!!!!) session with these guys. I know their momma will correct me in the comments! ;)

I can’t even express the joy we get from watching these little toots grow up and we’re honored to be their family photographers. <3 Lindsey has always made it a priority to document their family, and it’s such an inspiration to me. Nate and I had our first session (of us!) this year since our wedding- Almost NINE years ago y’all! We were needing an updated portrait for our adoption packets and realized that other than our traditional selfies, we hadn’t had someone else take our photo!

Whenever we’re lucky enough to become parents, I’m taking Lindsey’s note. I know I’ll never feel thin enough or pretty enough to have a session done, but it’s not for me. It’s for Baby Root. It would break my heart if we didn’t have a session with me in it for 9 years!

Anyway, thank you for inspiring me, Lindsey. I know I get a lump in my throat every time I look through our oldest shoots with y’all, and I know Liam, Maddie, and future grandkids will be so thankful for this gift of memories!!

But can we talk about how this is maybe my favorite brother/sister portrait ever?! Maddie is a Gap model in the making and Liam is a real life Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes!! This is them to me 100%!!

It always takes Maddie a little bit to warm up. ;)

But before we know it, Lindsey is jumping into her toddler comedy hour and killing it with the kiddos!

Can we talk about how Liam was this tiny when we first took his photo?!?!?

Omg, Maddie and that little finger is my favorite thing ever. <3

No one dresses her daughter better than Lindsey!! <3

On our first family session with these kids, Liam was ovvvvvver photos at the end of our shoot! He started crying and Nate told Lindsey and Eric to follow suit. One of my all-time-favorite family photos came out of it! Lindsey wanted a recent take on it! :)

Nate and Liam raced each other at the end of the session and I love the photo Nate got mid-race! Liam was verrrry focused, lol!

COME BACK SOON, FRIENDS! Miss you already!!! :)

Julian : Downtown Winter Garden Family Portrait Session

THIS. KID.

Who would have known that when we photographed Justin and Lu’s wedding 8 years ago, today they’d be two of our favorite friends!! And make the most creative, adorable, spunky, unique little boy I’ve ever met!!! This is Julian, and it feels like yesterday we photographed his first birthday cake smash at his home in New York. Nate and I were thrilled they came to visit us this year before our life got turned upside down! :)

I. MEAN.

Julian loves rocks, Star Wars, and John Williams scores. <3

Seriously. Wasn’t this just yesterday, Lu?!?

Julian, Disney World misses you!! Come visit again soon!! :)

Brianna + Jeremy : Orlando, Florida Wedding Photographer

November 5, 2016 by Jensey 1 Comment

November has arrived here in Orlando, and it is GORGEOUS out! We’re extra excited for wedding days now because it means we get to spend time out of our office. :)

Brianna and Jeremy’s day was just lovely, and it flew by working with our favorites! Maxine was their wedding planner (woot woot!), and our pal Tyler of Beyond Videography was there to film it. These two met playing Minecraft and most of their guests are big gamers, so Nate felt right at home! ;)
