Suzannah + Scott : Courtyard at Lake Lucerne Wedding at the Dr. Phillips House Preview

December 23, 2015 by Jensey 4 Comments

I’m feeling a bit like a North Pole elf working like crazy in the office before Christmas! We’ve also practically been living off an elf’s “four main food groups” this week (candy, candy canes, candy corn, and syyyyrup!), so that doesn’t help. ;)

I wanted to squeeze in one last wedding preview for ‘Zannah and her sweet husband before I shut my computer off for the holiday! These two were married at the Dr. Phillips House at the Courtyard at Lake Lucerne, a venue we so rarely get to photograph! Their vows were perfectly intimate, Suzannah looked stunning, and they were surrounded by friends and family (and friends who have become family!), who quite frankly love the heck out of them.

Suzannah and Scott, thank you for being so patient and waiting 19 days for some preview photos!! Enjoy. :)

Tiffiny + Mitch : Orlando Wedding

December 7, 2015 by Jensey 3 Comments

It’s hard to believe it’s been a full year since this magical wedding!

Tiffiny and Mitch got married at their favorite place on Earth, during my favorite time of the year, and we were honored to be a part of it. I love photographing weddings this time of year when there’s a chill in the air and I don’t have to Photoshop sweaty grooms! ;) Unfortunately, their ceremony was rained out, but their backup happens to be my favorite location in the park to photograph, so I was toooootally fine. Tiffiny was such a good sport and let us take their portraits outside despite the constant drizzle. :)

I *loooooooove* when brides and grooms walk down the aisle together! So rare, but so sweet. :)

After their more serious vows, Tiffiny and Mitch did an “ear exchange” with more silly promises to each other.

Probably one of my favorite photos Nate took alllllll 2014. I mean, really. <3

Tiffiny and Mitch, thank you for having us!!! :)

First Look on the 1st : Us

December 1, 2015 by Jensey 3 Comments

I’ll never forget the first time I tried pitching a “first look” to a couple. The look our bride gave me was as if I’d suggested she cover her dress in spray paint before walking down the aisle. I couldn’t blame her, though- 10 years ago, few had heard of such a thing and our brides were convinced their marriages would be doomed if they even entertained the idea!

Today, more weddings than not include this special moment. I still enjoy our little “First Look on the 1st” posts every month, but I thought this month we’d revisit our very first feature that goes a little more in-depth for our new couples. So click here or the photo below to read more about this wedding day option! :)
