disney engagement session

The last time we saw Katelyn, she was the maid of honor in her sister Erin’s wedding. Erin and Mark’s Pennsylvania wedding in Rose Valley was truly a favorite of ours that year, and we left with fingers and toes crossed that Erin’s was only the first of her siblings’ weddings we’d be photographing! :)

We were thrilled when Anthony reached out about their upcoming family trip to Disney, where he’d be proposing and wanted to surprise Katelyn with an engagement session with us! We met them at the Grand Floridian, where they were all sparkly with that newly-engaged-glow. (It’s a real thing, I promise!)

See what I mean? All sparkly. <3

Bumping into Katelyn’s family mid-session! :)

Katelyn and Anthony were staying here, so they popped back to their room for a quick outfit change. Before they left, Anthony said, “So, we had an idea…” Kate cut him off, “You. YOU had an idea.” Anthony floated the possibility of ending the session with them getting soaked in the Alice in Wonderland splash pad! We were allllll over it, but I wasn’t holding my breath that Katelyn would be 100% on board!

The last time we saw this sweet family…

And today! <3

Oh and yep. It. Happened.

I don’t know how we’re ever going to top this session!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <3

Anthony, we are so, so thankful you reached out and we can’t wait to finalize wedding plans. Katelyn, I can’t wait to see you in white, and P family, we hope to hug y’all again real soon!!!!!!!!!

Once upon a time, we showed up for an engagement session at the Polynesian, and Jennifer Love Hewitt’s clone showed up! These two are from Mississippi, which meant that *my* southern accent was back in full swing for a good week. ;)

Jessica and Forrest met at a college football game through friends- Jessica’s childhood babysitter and Forrest’s big sister were friends. One thing led to another, and Forrest became a converted Disney fan and even popped the question in front of Cinderella Castle. Jessica said she never saw it coming! :)

We loved getting to know these guys and this became one of my favorite sessions from last year. Enjoy! :)
