Melissa + Richard : Disney Christmas Wedding

December 21, 2021 by Jensey Leave a Comment

Melissa and Richard came all the way from Hawaii to get married here! They contacted us a year and a half ago to photograph their wedding day. While it wasn’t *exactly* how I envisioned our last wedding of the year going (Ollie had a 103º fever so I had to stay back), Nate abbbbbsolutely killed it and these photos are some of my favorites from all of 2021. <3

Melissa and Richard, we are so honored you chose us and we hope you love these photos as much as Nate loved shooting them!!

Thank you to our amazing team!! <3

Tiffany + Sean : Wedding at Disney’s Boardwalk Inn and Living Seas Salon

February 28, 2020 by Jensey Leave a Comment

A true dream from first email, the opening line of Tiffany’s message was her asking if we would photograph her wedding day… and that she’d change her date if need-be. <3

Like so many of our Disney brides, she first found us through Carrie Hayward’s Disney Wedding Podcast, and Tiffany even says she’s read Carrie’s Disney Wedding Guide (almost) 743 times, lol!

When Tiffany and Sean first met, everyone said they were the opposite sex version of each other. They’ve been together now for almost a decade, and Tiffany says that having Sean’s son Patrick in her life has been the best thing that’s ever happened to her. They always felt like they’ve been married for so long but finally booked a Disney wedding to celebrate with their favorite people in their favorite place! :)

*My* favorite thing about this wedding day was watching Tiffany completely geek out about meeting some of our favorite vendor friends. Stacie from Fairytale Hair and Makeup, “Rev Kev” Kevin Knox, and Christine McPhail, her harpist– Every meeting brought new comments of “Oh. My. God. I can’t believe I’m about to meet THE Rev Kev,” etc. We laughed our way though the day so much our cheeks were sore!

Anyway, TIFFANY! I’m so so excited to be sharing YOUR wedding preview!!! Enjoy!!!!!!!!!

This. First. Look. <3

Love this one of Tiffany and Patrick! <3

Sooo happy we could sneak into AbracadaBar for some photos! <3

It was off to The Living Seas Salon for their reception! <3

Tiffany and Sean, thank you SO much for having us!!! The day went by too too quickly! <3

Kirstie + Danny : Rainy January Wedding

January 21, 2020 by Jensey Leave a Comment

It’s hard to believe Kirstie and Danny first contacted us over two *years* ago about possibly shooting their wedding!!

They came all the way from the UK to have their Disney wedding. Unfortunately Florida weather didn’t understand the gravity of this situation and it rained most of the day! But we still got great photos, and more importantly, made two new great friends. :)

Kicking off their blog post with a Root selfie because Danny asked to take it with Mickey and Minnie and we’ve never gotten to do that before!! In case you couldn’t tell from the size of the smiles on our faces! :)

They’d decorated their room for Christmas since they stayed over the holidays, which meant fun props for ring photos! We have the same Chip and Dale nutcrackers at our house! <3

Mary Poppins is Danny’s favorite movie, so of course we had to take photos with my fountain! <3
