Maevy + Carter : Nashville Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park Family Session Preview

April 18, 2013 by Jensey 1 Comment

So excited to share some preview photos of this cute family we had the privilege of photographing last week! I know I’ve mentioned this a few times already, but Nate and I are loving shooting families lately. It can be a really fun break from weddings and engagements, and it really does feel like we’re just playing for an hour! :)

Sam + Jake : Orlando Hard Rock Cafe Wedding

April 17, 2013 by Jensey 7 Comments

Samantha and Jake are two of the funnest, sweetest people you’ll ever meet and Jake is a HUGE music fanatic. He doesn’t just GO to Bonnaroo, he brings his mom. He and Sam felt like the Orlando Hard Rock Cafe at Universal’s City Walk was the perfect place to hold their wedding and after shooting there, I have to admit- Even though I sort of felt like I was cheating on Disney shooting this one, this venue is awesome.

I love that Nate grabbed this photo of Jake playing on the Hard Rock stage before the ceremony. :)

Pretty sure I was getting yelled at by their DJ for taking this. Even though so many of our couples learn of the private last dance from our blog, DJs don’t seem to know that we like to stick around for the first half of the song to shoot it! Should probably blog about that soon. :)

2013 Celebration Posh Pooch Festival

April 10, 2013 by Jensey 11 Comments

As I mentioned in my post last week regarding the new Disney World photography rules, Nate and I have loved working with the Disney Fairy Tale Weddings team for the past five years. We travel all over the country for this job so it’s rare that we get a chance to work at the same venues, let alone the same team of people, on any given wedding day.

There’s something incredibly comforting about walking into Disney’s Wedding Pavilion and seeing Bill playing the organ and greeting us with a smile. Or knowing when we see Bob or Andrew show up at a reception, there’s a good chance Mickey and Minnie are right around the corner! There was that one time I shot a wedding feeling like death and our Disney planner that day, Maxine, greeted me at the reception with a cup of hot tea with honey. Moments like that are absolutely priceless, and I’m so grateful our couples have given us the chance to photograph so many weddings at “home.”

Nate and I were finally able to sweet talk Maxine into having dinner with us during a two week Orlando trip. After dinner, she mentioned that if we weren’t doing anything the next day, we should bring Huck and meet up with the DFTW team at Celebration’s Posh Pooch Festival. I was hesitant at first thinking we’d be crashing the party, but when Saturday came and we found ourselves in Celebration with nothing to do and a newly groomed Huck, well… It was time for an adventure! :)

Pst- Have you “liked” Huckleberry Finn on Facebook yet?!

The whole gang! :)

I’ve been wanting to meet Miss Macy for years, ever since her momma Carol and I bonded over our love of itty bittys!

The one dog Huck was smitten with was Tulla Belle (can you blame him?!)…

… Sadly, she couldn’t care less. No Posh Pooch wedding ceremony for these two!

We got more people asking us if Huck was Boo than anything else. Next year, I’m just saying yes. And then charging $5 for photos with him. ;)

I don’t know how you can’t be a “dog person” when you look at a face like this!
