Mari + Kris : Luau Pointe Wedding at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort

September 3, 2019 by Jensey Leave a Comment

Mari first contacted me on Instagram about possibly shooting a cake smash session for her daughter.
Her email thread to Nate is my favorite- Going from a potential cake smash session in May, to no- let’s do a family session in August! But let’s get wedding pricing info just in case. And then finally, hey- Let’s just do this wedding thing early- Are you free for that instead? ;)
I am *so* happy Mari and Kris found us and that Nate got to shoot the most lovely, intimate wedding at Luau Pointe at Disney’s Polynesian Resort. It was the first wedding we’d photographed there and just seeing the photos is (almost) enough to make this snowy-mountain-loving-girl consider throwing on a lei and having a vow renewal under this majestic tree!!

You know how much I loooooove when our couples get ready together!!

Love this photo Nate took of their daughter’s wedding day ensemble. <3

Getting their little ready! <3

Mari was channeling ALL the Moana vibes and I’m here for it!!

Ummm how to spot our ideal bride? Mari took a tiny stumble during her walk down the aisle and was allllll giggles about it! <3

Look. At. This. Venue. Y’all! <3

Looooove this family portrait!!! :)

Remember the scene in Moana with the Kakamora?! LOOK AT THEM ON THIS CAAAAAAKE!!!! AHHHHHH! <3 <3 <3

Mari and Kris, thank you for letting Nate be a part of your day!! He had so much fun!! :)

Jessica + Steven : Orlando Anniversary Session

October 13, 2016 by Jensey 1 Comment

Jessica and Steven found us through recent Root couple, Meghan and Dave! <3

Jessica was a bridesmaid in the wedding *and* did the whole wedding party’s hair and make-up. The wedding was in Providence, but Jessica contacted us about photographing her and Steven’s anniversary session on their next trip down to Walt Disney World. Our shoot was Jessica’s anniversary gift to Steven and I’m so happy it worked out. :)

Melanie + Brent : Disney Polynesian Village Resort Engagement Session

October 9, 2014 by Jensey Leave a Comment

These two are adorable. I can 100% attest that they are as sweet, love-y and fun in person as they came across in our photos.

We met with Melanie and Brent pre-Polynesian Village construction for their engagement session. :) I often have the best intentions of blogging these sessions in a timely manner, but you know, life kinda gets away from me. But seeing as today is their wedding day(!!), I thought what better way to share them with y’all? Enjoy!

I’m pretty sure Brent was the model for newlywed Carl from Up! :)
