Juliana + Ryan : Wedding at The Manor in West Orange, NJ

April 11, 2016 by Jensey 5 Comments

 

We met Juliana when she was a bridesmaid in her sister’s Disney wedding. Gina’s wedding was one we’ll never forget, from our showing up to the Grand Floridian in a tornado warning (it poured so hard we couldn’t even see the Wedding Pavilion!), to the end of the night where Gina was running and sliding across the dance floor in her wedding gown, LOL! There is NO better feeling than when the brother or sister of a bride books us for their wedding- It’s so fun showing up to the next wedding as old friends. <3

This was my favorite photo of Juliana and Ryan from Gina and Bob’s wedding! :)

Then and now with Princess Summer. I only just noticed how similar their flowers were! <3

The flower girl dresses were handmade by Juliana’s mom to look like hers. I was in awe! :)

This little warrior. <3 Summer was diagnosed with pediatric liver cancer when she was born and has undergone a roller coaster of surgeries and treatments all with a smile on her face. Juliana entered Summer in our portrait giveaway last year and she won, so hopefully we’ll get more quality time with this brave little girl soon. If you would like to support Alex’s Lemonade Stand in honor of Summer, you can read more about her journey and donate here!!

BEST moment from the wedding day? This duo!! We all died when the ring bearer proceeded to pick a flower off the ground and hold it in his mouth!! :)

Violet + Eli : Orlando Family Portrait Sesssion

March 24, 2016 by Jensey Leave a Comment

*You can see our last two sessions with this sweet family here and here!*

Violet was only one when we first photographed her, and now she’s this amazing, silly, charming big sister.

This was our second time meeting Eli, and the biggest thing these siblings have in common is that they become infinitely cuter with every session!

I can’t believe it’s been ~8 years since Cynthia and Shane’s wedding day. Talk about “Root Lifers!”

Orlando Florida Family Session Photographer 03 Orlando Florida Family Session Photographer 04

My favorite part of the session was realizing that Eli didn’t remember us from our last session; I can’t blame him, it was a while ago and he was younger! But I went to put them in place, and he looked at me completely freaked out. “How do you know our names?!” I reminded him that we played and took photos with them a couple years ago and he goes, “Oh, good. I was worried for a second!” *I* think he was confused because we didn’t re-introduce Nate as “Miss Bobbi!”

Maaaaaaybe it’s just us, but we think Eli almost looks a little like a young Joseph Gorden-Levitt!

One guess as to who taught them this! (Answer at the bottom of this post!)

May I just lament for one second that Violet was this tiny the first time we met her?!?!?
