Lauren + Craig : Boat House at Confluence Park Wedding

October 1, 2020 by Jensey 3 Comments

If we’ve photographed your wedding, you’ve hopefully joined our online “clubhouse” for past Root couples. It’s called Root Lifers BECAUSE of Lindsey, the sister of the bride you’re about to meet. So to say this family is special to us is an extreme understatement; they’re family. <3

Lauren and Craig’s wedding story is a lot like some other weddings I’ll be sharing this year: they planned a beautiful May wedding in Columbus, Ohio, before the world fell apart and had to pivot. They rescheduled to September and she was so happy they did; when their original wedding date arrived, it poured allllllll day, so everything would have been moved inside! Instead, we enjoyed the most amazing weather in the 70º’s, and it was the most welcome break for these Florida kids!!

Y’all- we’ve only shot two weddings these past 6 months and I still never even blogged our last two weddings before the shutdown! I definitely feel a little dusty when we start shooting, but it all comes back right away. And I’m a little out of practice when it comes to our workflow after a wedding, trying to remind myself what step is next, lol! Anyway, I thought I’d jump back into blogging with our most recent event and then catch up as time goes on.

On to Lauren and Craig’s day! <3

These two met AT a wedding! Lauren was a bridesmaid and she and Craig even have a photo from dancing at the reception. :)

We’ve photographed Maddie since she was a teeny baby, so I loved seeing how grown up she looked as a flower girl in her aunt’s wedding! <3


Just to prove I’m not lying- This baby is the beauty in the last photo!! <3


First look love! <3

The middle three are all Root brides! <3 <3 <3

His sweet mama was a ball of emotions all day and I. was. here. for. it!! <3

Lindsey’s sweet grandma wasn’t able to make it because of Covid, but she was absolutely there in spirit (and Facetime!)

Special mini session for our favorites!!! This will be the first year they haven’t come down to Florida for a family session since Liam was a BABY and I’m still in denial about that!

Magazine worthy! <3

Oh Lauren and Craig, I can’t thank you enough for keeping us in the family. We’re so thankful to you ALL and can’t wait until next time!!! :)

Katie + Patrick : Quantum Leap Winery Wedding

March 30, 2020 by Jensey Leave a Comment

Ohhhh, how quickly life can change in one short month! On Leap Day, we photographed our first wedding at Quantum Leap Winery.

The *only* time the word Corona was brought up in conversation was talking about how badly we felt that our couple had to change their honeymoon plans because of it. If we only knew what life would look like just two weeks later.

I’ve gone back and forth on whether to keep blogging and posting weddings out of respect, but I think it’s time to get the ball rolling again. I know *I* feel relief seeing non-news posts in my feed, and I think now is the perfect time to remind our couples that life moves on. Our brides are still planning weddings and I want to share the happiness we had the honor of shooting this spring before dates got rescheduled!

So on to these two. <3

If you follow along with the blog, Katie and Patrick were our famous Skyliner couple!! You can click the photo below for more favorites from that shoot! :) Katie was on the small team of people responsible for dreaming up the Skyliner and bringing it to life, so this location was a must! <3

Leap Day is Nate and my dating anniversary, and I can’t think of a better way to celebrate than watching these two tie the knot. <3

Alison from Blush by Brandee Gaar planned the day flawlessly! :)

The sweetest first look <3

Cute kids were in abundance this day! First up, this stud muffin! <3

Katie, you looked stuuuuuunning! <3

Look. At. This. Venue!!!!!!!!!!! Be still, my little wine-loving heart!! <3

Scooby watching along!! <3

Katie and Patrick, thank you for having us!!!! <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!!!!!!!!!
