Catie + Amanda : Swan and Dolphin Wedding

October 19, 2020 by Jensey 1 Comment

Amanda has been following our work for years, since our very first Disney wedding, Carrie and Patrick! <3

Catie and Amanda met through work where they’re both oncology nurses. They live in Jacksonville but spend a lot of time at Disney, where both proposals took place. They’ve known they wanted a wedding at the Swan and Dolphin since the beginning, and we were extra excited, because we’ve never done a wedding there! This was our first post-Covid wedding on property, and I’d be lying if I didn’t say I had a little lump in my throat walking through the Boardwalk lobby with my camera!

Special thanks to this vendor team! <3

Wedding Planning : Just Marry!
Venue : WDW Swan & Dolphin Resort
Entertainment : DJ Live Productions
Beauty : Fairytale Hair & Make-Up
Decor : Orlando Wedding and Party Rentals

Even now when Amanda’s laces become untied around her parents, her dad ties them. :) Amanda made sure he had the honor on her wedding day to tie her wedding shoes. <3

First looooook!

I was blown away by how the Swan and Dolphin handled everything! Their wedding cake was safely behind glass but still visible to guests.

Favorite part of every wedding: our check in with Ollie during dinner! This was him serenading us with his “flute,” just a drumstick he’s blowing, lol.

Sure the guests are masked, but I promise the fun level is the same! :)

Amanda and Catie, it was an absolute honor!!! Thank you for having us!! :)

Stephanie + MJ : Disney Wedding in Orlando, Florida

February 22, 2020 by Jensey Leave a Comment

They met fall of 2015 at a charity fundraiser for a mutual friend. MJ was photographing the event but couldn’t help but notice Stephanie and her piercing blue eyes, and as the story has it, Stephanie couldn’t help but watch MJ hard at work. <3

When they finally got to spend time together (they lived in different states!), Stephanie and MJ felt like they’d known each other forever. It was love almost instantly, and MJ proposed the following year during a game night at home. MJ worked her proposal into a trivia game- Stephanie was so focused on answering the fake question that MJ had to ask her twice before she realized MJ was proposing!!

Disney is a really big part of their family. Stephanie, her father, and her daughter Kendall used to go to Disney all the time with just the 3 of them. It was beyond special to MJ when she was first invited along, so there was no more special place to have their wedding than Walt Disney World. <3

Stephanie and MJ, we can’t thank you enough for letting us follow along- Enjoy your preview!!

Jen + Travis : Luau Pointe Vow Renewal at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort Part I

February 5, 2020 by Jensey 1 Comment

You don’t have to dive too far into Jen and Travis’s “about” page to learn about their love of Disney! So it was only fitting that this fellow husband and wife wedding photography team came down to Orlando for their 10 year vow renewal. <3

Their two dogs (Doc & Marty) weren’t able to make it to the wedding, but they were surrounded by so much love and support by the other important figures in their lives! We loved getting to know these guys, talking shop, and seeing that like us- Most of their close friends are past couples whose weddings they’ve shot! :)

It’s always the deepest honor to be asked to document someone’s wedding day, but there’s a different level of honor (and to be completely honest- anxiety!) when it’s a fellow wedding photographer.

Jen and Travis, thank you so much for having us along for the ride- We hope we did you proud! <3

Starting things off with one of my favorites of the day, their wedding bands along with their vow renewal bands.

Colorful leis on hand to photograph their wedding details with? Don’t mind if I do! <3

Working on their new vows. <3

Annnnd because they’re amazing they *clap* got *clap* ready *clap* together!!! <3

An ode to Jen’s Rapunzel / Elsa braid. <3

I was a tad smitten with her COACH designer ears. <3 <3 <3

We took portraits before their ceremony at Saratoga Springs. Just like my childhood, Jen grew up staying here (we both even stayed when it was the Disney Institute!) We mainly shot around Congress Park and I’m so happy with what we came away with! :)

SERIOUS ELSA VIBES HERE, PEOPLE.

Ok ok last photo with the ears, I promise. ;)
