Henry : Preview

March 2, 2013 by Jensey 3 Comments

You guys.

I apologize if you’ve been waiting on preview photos or an email from me- I will get to you, promise! A week ago we were 3 weddings and 12 sessions behind- I’ve never had more in my editing queue! I’ve been struggling to catch up this week and I finally feel like I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Anyway, please bear with us while we play catch up this week!

Jessica! I know you’ve been waiting to see some teaser photos and I apologize for taking so long! Thank you for letting us meet your sweet boy and we can’t wait to share more very very soon! :)

Kait + Scott : Port Orleans Riverside Engagement Session

February 27, 2013 by Jensey 2 Comments

Kait and Scott’s engagement session was our very last shoot during our busiest week of 2012, and scheduled the day after one of our longest wedding days of the year. I also happened to be more sick than I’d been in all of 2012, practically a zombie sneezing and coughing my way through our weddings and sessions that week. Needless to say, I was so wiped out by the end of our trip and had to sit this one out- The first “work day” I’ve missed in years. I felt just awful, but Kait was so sweet and actually insisted I stay behind.

Nate did so well on his own and really knocked this one out of the park. Working with him has become such second nature for me and I depend on him to perfect poses I set up and finish my sentences- I’m not so sure I could ever do this on my own!

Port Orleans Riverside Engagement Session

Kait and Scott met at ages 14 and 15, and I think it really shows through with how comfortable they are with each other!

Matthew + Family : Boardwalk Inn Family Session

February 26, 2013 by Jensey 3 Comments

Matthew was referred to us by his roommate Michelle who we’ve never gotten the chance to meet. We’ve been Twitter friends for a couple years now, and I’m so honored she passed her friend our way when he was in the need of a family session! :)

We met Matthew, Nathan, and TJ at Disney’s Boardwalk Inn during our busiest week of the year. We were quite sick, but I think we made it through successfully!

To be completely honest, Nathan and I had never done a shoot like this and had no idea what to expect. Most of our sessions are with parents and their school-age children, but we’ve been doing this long enough we knew we’d be fine. Nate and I had no idea we’d be working with such a loving, photogenic family, which Matthew styled perfectly for Disney’s Boardwalk Inn… I felt like we were on a Walt Disney World promo shoot with professional models. I mean, look at these three!!
