About the Roots


Hello! We are Nate and Jensey Root, and we'd love to take your picture. :)

Nate's from South Florida and Jensey grew up in Tennessee, but now we happily reside in Central Florida. We're a husband-and-wife photography team ready to travel wherever adventure takes us. (So far, that's included many states across the US, the Caribbean, Paris, and Africa!)

While Jensey would love to say she was born with a camera in hand and an artist's heart, it was Nate's love of photography that started this crazy journey. Root Photography began when Nate photographed his college roommate's wedding January of 2006. Jensey was a guest at that wedding and provided essential support Nate didn't even know he needed, from helping him change lenses to keeping him calm when his batteries nearly died towards the end of the reception! At Nate's second wedding, Jensey came along and shot with Nate's spare camera and they've been a team ever since.

Wedding photography is a dream job that allows us to spend our days together documenting the joy of happy people in love. We can't imagine life any other way!
