Orlando wedding, engagement, family photographer | Root Photography Blog
The many adventures of a cute husband and wife photography team!
I can’t believe we’re done with 2010 weddings! Special thanks from the bottom of our hearts to every couple that made this year one of our best. :)
Dani was the last Root bride of the year!
Dani and Bryan sharing a special moment before the ceremony- Without seeing each other. :)
More from this wedding to come in 2011- How weird does that sound? :)
Last December, I did it.
I’m not shy about my lifelong love for all things Disney on this blog, because it really is a huge part of who I am. Last December, however, I did something new.
Yes, there was a dark period of my life after leaving my role at Walt Disney World that I joined the cast at Universal’s Guest Services. I only worked there for a month, but even so, I never got the chance to go to the parks. Can you believe that?! I had free access and tickets for Nate to get in, but since our December was so crazy that year (and I wasn’t exactly thinking I’d leave so soon), I never had a chance to visit the park as a guest!
So last December, we finally did it… We stepped into enemy territory!
… Which is, let’s face it, down-right adorable!
I also discovered my new favorite restaurant in Orlando. Eating in a CAVE?! Sushi made from RICE CRISPIES?! Mythos, you win. Big time.
*Swooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon!*
We were also able to see two shows of How the Grinch Stole Christmas where we took some photos of our pretty friend, Cindy Lou Who!
Snoooooow!
I think Cindy Lou was happy to see us. :)
I would love this job. :)
Show #2:
… FAVORITE! If this doesn’t give you warm fuzzies about Christmas, nothing will!
Happy December, blog readers! :)
Continued from Carriatrick: Part One!
It doesn’t get more magical than this, friends!
*Happy sigh.*
Oooooh, Paaaaatrick, I don’t know what you did, but you’re in troooooouble!!!!!!!
I have no words.
I know I’ve said it before, but I think the queue area for Splash Mountain is so pretty!
Patrick starring in his own parade!
I love this so much- The thing I miss MOST about working in Fantasyland next to the thing I miss least- Stroller parking!
We went with Carrie and my sister, Amelia, to Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. :)
I always love the window displays on Main Street. :)
Name that ride!
Tink’s a little scary zoomed in, no?
Every year I love going to the Christmas parade to see my old roommate, Ashley! :)
This last group is from our visit to the Osborne Lights at Hollywood Studios. :)
The end. :)
How is it almost Christmas already?! I suppose there’s no better time to share some holiday photo love. :)
The next two posts are full of photos we took during a play week we had last December with some of our most favorite people. :)
Our friends Carrie and Patrick stayed at the fancy new Bay Lake Tower at the Contemporary Resort which I was dying to see, and we did a mini-shoot with them around the hotel. :)
Loved all the details…
Carpet angels!
The sweetest anniversary/ wedding gift ever- Since Nate and I eloped, we never got to have a wedding cake. Carrie and Patrick, being the amazing friends they are, surprised us one night at dinner with a Disney anniversary cake. Sweetest gift ever, ever. I totally cried. :) Note Carrie’s note to detail- She knows my love of all things Christmas and Tiffany boxes. ;)
JULU!!!!!!! Justin and Lu, two more of my favorite people on the planet. I’m so sad we’re not seeing you guys this month! :(
The cast members of the Germany Pavilion in Epcot had fun setting this one up, I’m sure! ;)
After dinner, Carrie, Nathan, and I went over to my most favorite holiday tradition ever- The Candlelight Processional! I was excited to see my friend Marshall (in the glasses) was singing in the show. :) Some of you guys may remember him from Return 2 Zero or Four for a Dollar. :)
Abigail Breslin (Or, “Abbie Bressie,” as we dubbed her after this night) was the celebrity narrator. It was amazing- I’ve never heard the story of Christmas told in such a nonchalant fashion.
Throughout the reading, she gave the audience the feeling that we were keeping her from something more important. I know she wasn’t doing any of this, but the whole time I felt like she was smacking her bubblegum, twirling her hair, and waiting for Billy to call and ask her to the prom.
When the singers were doing their thing, she had this complete zoned-out look on her face.
Don’t let this photo fool you- She’s only smiling ’cause she’s DONE! ;)
At one point, Nathan and I were guests at a wedding for the first time ever!!! See?
Our friends Rebecca and Joe got married. :)
Their reception was absolutely gorgeous in the American Adventure Rotunda at Epcot- Nate was itching to shoot the first dance, so I let him sneak in one photo. :)
One night we met up with Carrie and Patrick at a Disboards party in Hollywood Studios.
Santa was there, too!
Can you spot the hidden Mickey?
How ’bout now? It’s in the eye of the chicken. :)
They mean business. ;)
We bumped into my old friend, Tim! When we met, he was just starting work at WDW and I was just starting the 5th grade. *Tear.*
Woohoo! More to come tomorrow. :)
