Marcia + Aaron : Orlando Florida Wedding

October 21, 2016 by Jensey 1 Comment

It’s hard to believe it’s been over a year since we first got Marcia’s wedding inquiry. <3

Marcia and Aaron are big Disney fans. They’re first trip together was six years ago when they weren’t “officially” dating. Aaron hadn’t gone since he was a kid, right after Walt Disney World first opened. I love that their first trip together is what sparked two of Aaron’s greatest loves in life- Marcia and Disney! :) It was only appropriate that Aaron proposed on the first day of their first-ever trip to Disneyland!

Being big fans of Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival, it was a no-brainer that their Disney wedding would take place in October. :)

I was completely smitten with Marcia’s blue skirt. It actually happened because of a serious alterations error and I’m so happy it did! :)

Brier + Brad : Orlando, Florida Wedding

September 23, 2016 by Jensey Leave a Comment

The weather this month has been pretty nuts. Every wedding day has had at least a shower or two and our sessions are constantly being rescheduled.

Brier and Brad’s wedding was no different. It was raining on our way in, but luckily stopped in time for their pre-ceremony portraits! By the time their dessert party came though, it was poooooouring. Like, Illuminations being delayed ~40 minutes bad! But lucky for us, these guys were just happy to be hanging out with their family and friends. No one complained that they were standing around in ponchos for an unknown amount of time. And Illuminations still happened. <3

This wedding came at a perfect time for us, because we were surrounded by people encouraging us about our adoption! Brier’s parents actually adopted her brothers from different countries. While we were waiting for Illuminations, the sweetest guest came up, gave me a huge hug, and told me about being adopted herself! This whole adoption has been wonderful, but we definitely have days where we’re feeling a little more scared and lonely. This was one of those days, and my faith cup just filled right back up. :)

Brier’s parents have always been big Disney fans. So much so that they named their only daughter after Briar Rose! I love love love love love that she walked down the aisle to “Once Upon a Dream” from Sleeping Beauty! <3

Rachael + Matt : Epcot Wedding Ceremony (Wedding Part I)

September 12, 2016 by Jensey 2 Comments

I can’t believe this is my second wedding in a row with a two part blog post! Yikes!!

Rachael and Matt’s wedding was the first Epcot one we’ve had in months. It was also the first wedding with nice weather we’ve had since spring. Also, there were dinosaurs. But more on that in part two later this week!! :)

Hurricane Hermine was threatening to make this wedding day an interesting one, to say the least. While their dessert party got rained out and we fought some drops and crazy wind that evening, the wedding morning was actually pretty wonderful! Not only did they get to keep their ceremony outside, but it didn’t rain, and I sweat the least that morning than I’ve sweat since March!

If you’re looking for something to get me for Christmas, I want this fountain in my backyard, please. <3

Rachael got ready in one of the most beautiful rooms I’ve ever been in at the Grand Floridian! There was a little entry room with gorgeous wallpaper and a mirror, so Nate and I were in heaven photographing Rachael’s details. :)

First look time! <3

walt-disney-world-orlando-wedding-photographer06 walt-disney-world-orlando-wedding-photographer07 walt-disney-world-orlando-wedding-photographer08

Uh, remember what I said about Hurricane Hermine? Our pal David of Trinity Wedding Cinema pulled this up an hour before the ceremony!

walt-disney-world-orlando-wedding-photographer09

We rushed around the world for portraits in case the weather had other plans after the ceremony. Lucky for us, the clouds held out, and we enjoyed nature’s soft box of light from this overcast day. :)

Their wedding was officiated by the ever-magical Renee Silverman of A Lovely Ceremony!

walt-disney-world-orlando-wedding-photographer21

Their ceremony had so many sweet moments, as all of Renee’s weddings do, but my favorite is always the ring warming ceremony. Rachael’s sister passed off their wedding bands at the beginning of the ceremony for their guests to take turns holding and praying over, sending positive thoughts to the bride and groom.

That ceremony view, though. <3

walt-disney-world-orlando-wedding-photographer24 walt-disney-world-orlando-wedding-photographer25 walt-disney-world-orlando-wedding-photographer26

Fact : I cried every. single. time. I tried to take a photo of Rachael’s emotional sisters!! <3 The Chinese have a beautiful reason behind why we wear our rings on a specific finger. You can read more about it here, but I love that Renee added this to their ceremony! :)
