Taryn + TC : Orlando Wedding Photographer

July 24, 2016 by Jensey 2 Comments

I can’t believe we’re already almost done with July!!!! My year is always based around a never ending countdown to Halloween and Christmas, and we’re getting close- I can feeeeeel it! <3

This summer, Nate’s grandmother moved from Indiana to my mother-in-law’s in South Florida. We spent the first couple weeks of this month helping to finish pack her up there, driving the moving truck down to Florida (with Huck and all!), and then moving her into her new digs. I only mention this because I’m a couple weeks late with this sweet couple’s wedding preview!

Taryn and TC were married in the beginning of the month and lucked out with the best dessert party- A Wishes! dessert party, but one with the 4th of July fireworks!!! I know the word “epic” gets tossed around all the time these days, but just. wait. until. you. see. that. photo!!!!!!!!!!!!

Without further ado, Taryn and TC’s wedding day! <3

Her bridesmaids had the most beautiful brooch bouquets, and I love that Taryn had brooches mixed in with her flowers!

I couldn’t stop laughing on my first pass through Nate’s photos when I saw this little cutie! :)

Nate’s camera magic + bubbles = <3

THE FIREWORK PHOTO TO END ALL FIREWORK PHOTOS. <3

I love that their first dance was to one of “our” songs, Maroon 5’s “Sunday Morning!” <3

YOU GUUUUUUUUYS!!! We had so so so so so so much fun and can’t wait to share the rest of your photos SOON! <3

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

Fact : I could photograph wedding details in the Roy Disney suite every day of the week and twice on Sunday. <3

These shoe photos!!! <3

Deanna, you were STUNNING.

Michael didn’t look so bad, either!

First look on Deck 4, my favorite!. <3

So. Many. Favorites. <3

FAVORITE. <3

Then it was off to the D Lounge for cake and champagne! <3

Yay!! Next up, photos from the rest of our cruise! :)

My abs are still sore from laughing during this shoot.

Alex and Josh were married one of the first years we started Root Photography, and it was so fun to catch up with them! Turns out a lot can happen in ~8 years, and we loved meeting their silly daughters!! Nate and I both agree that this was a favorite-ever shoot for us, so hopefully you agree! <2

I feel ya, Mads. <3

Sometimes you just have to follow the talent’s lead!

Four things: 1- That smirk and lollipop kill me!!. 2- Can we just talk about how precious these OshKosh overall dresses are?! 3- If Madeline were my daughter, every wall of our home would be painted this color to bring out those eyyyyyyes! <3
