Ace + Michael : Disney Cruise Line Wedding Photographer on the Disney Dream

May 27, 2019 by Jensey 1 Comment

Hooray! Hooray! It’s Ace and Michael’s wedding preview day! :)

It’s hard to believe we just finished our *5th* Disney Cruise Line wedding!!! The best thing about these weddings now is getting to bring our son on board and make it a little family vacation. While booking a 4 day cruise in May initially made me a little nervous being smack dab in the middle of a busy wedding season, 4 days away from the office and internet was *exactly* what this Mama needed this month!

I’ll post some of our personal photos once I get around to editing them, but let me just say that Ollie’s second cruise did. not. disappoint. Our little curly-headed pirate stole hearts, ate his weight in bread and ice cream alone, and we made so many sweet memories!

Ace contacted us about a year and a half ago (!!!!) to shoot their wedding! She found us on Google and we’re so, so honored they chose us to document their day. I loved their friends so much I wanted to be a part of it and my cheeks were sore from smiling by the end of the day! :)

Ace and Michael, thank you for EVERYTHING. Enjoy your preview!!!

First up, my faaaaavorite. <3

Their save the date set the perfect tone for their wedding! This beauty has been hanging on our fridge all year. <3 On the morning of their wedding, the lobby was paaaaacked, so I couldn’t do my usual dress hanging shot in the atrium! But I’m loving the porthole I did find. <3 This first look <3 <3   Favorite wedding party shot! :) Their ceremony was in the atrium during Nassau day, so it was so private and empty. <3 These guys were so adorably freaked out to try their apple juice out of champagne glasses! :) Our welcome bag even provided coloring books and swag for Ollie! <3 Ace and Michael, we can’t thank you enough for having us!! Safe trip home!! :)

Katrina + Josh : Disney Cruise Line Wedding on the Disney Dream!

April 17, 2019 by Jensey 5 Comments

We loved Josh and Katrina from the moment we learned they’re the parents of two poms- One with no teeth and one who’s 16! They both work in the film industry and got engaged in Iceland… How do you top this? By getting married on the Disney Dream, of course!

This wedding meant we were able to make a true family vacation out of it. Ollie hung out in the on-ship Small World daycare while we photographed the wedding. He looooved it, and it was so fun shooting a wedding knowing he was right down the hallway. <3

My favorite moment with Katrina and Josh wasn’t their engagement session, or even their wedding day- Nope. It was about 9pm a couple weeks after their wedding when we saw them pumping gas at the station down the street from our house. I think we were all in pajamas, and we grabbed Ollie and walked up to Katrina’s passenger window. They were on their way to Disney and just took a random exit off the Turnpike to fill up- Little did they know they were down the street from our home! :)

Best groom gift ever? I think perhaps!! Katrina surprised Josh with a vintage Game Boy!

Katrina raised the bar for stateroom door decor juuuuust a little bit! ;)

Just a little pre-wedding mini golf with the groomsmen! :)

Wedding hazard of a cruise ship first look- That wiiiind!

One of my favorite bridal portraits ever! :)

They were married in the atrium of the Disney Dream lobby, and Katrina made her walk down the aisle down the grand staircase.

Group selfie with our Switzerworld filmmaker buddies! <3

Post wedding celebration, Nate met up with Katrina and Josh for more portraits and a change of dress. :)

That one on the right is my faaaavorite. <3

Katrina and Josh, thank you for letting us join your adventure!!! We wish y’all the very best- See you in the parks! :)

Deanna + Michael : Disney Cruise Line Wedding on the Disney Dream

July 20, 2016 by Jensey Leave a Comment

Destination weddings are always an adventure, but that increases 10 fold when it’s on a Disney Cruise.

We were thrilled when Deanna and Michael asked us to join them on board to document their wedding! This was our second wedding to shoot on the Disney Dream, the first being Krystal and Ben’s. Krystal’s ceremony took place on Castaway Cay, but this was to be our first wedding in the atrium of the Disney Dream. It was absolutely stunning!

The best part about this wedding were the people getting married. Deanna and Michael became quick friends, and their families welcomed us with open arms! Deanna’s family has cruised more times than they could count, and a large majority of their guests were friends they’ve made while on Disney cruises!

Nate and I were able to photograph their legal ceremony while the boat was docked at Cape Canaveral, and then shot their welcome party too. <3
