Maddie + Liam : Grand Floridian Family Session

November 10, 2016 by Jensey 1 Comment

I always miscount these things, but I’m about 80% sure this was our 9th(!!!!!!!!!!!!!) session with these guys. I know their momma will correct me in the comments! ;)

I can’t even express the joy we get from watching these little toots grow up and we’re honored to be their family photographers. <3 Lindsey has always made it a priority to document their family, and it’s such an inspiration to me. Nate and I had our first session (of us!) this year since our wedding- Almost NINE years ago y’all! We were needing an updated portrait for our adoption packets and realized that other than our traditional selfies, we hadn’t had someone else take our photo!

Whenever we’re lucky enough to become parents, I’m taking Lindsey’s note. I know I’ll never feel thin enough or pretty enough to have a session done, but it’s not for me. It’s for Baby Root. It would break my heart if we didn’t have a session with me in it for 9 years!

Anyway, thank you for inspiring me, Lindsey. I know I get a lump in my throat every time I look through our oldest shoots with y’all, and I know Liam, Maddie, and future grandkids will be so thankful for this gift of memories!!

But can we talk about how this is maybe my favorite brother/sister portrait ever?! Maddie is a Gap model in the making and Liam is a real life Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes!! This is them to me 100%!!

It always takes Maddie a little bit to warm up. ;)

But before we know it, Lindsey is jumping into her toddler comedy hour and killing it with the kiddos!

On our first family session with these kids, Liam was ovvvvvver photos at the end of our shoot! He started crying and Nate told Lindsey and Eric to follow suit. One of my all-time-favorite family photos came out of it! Lindsey wanted a recent take on it! :)

Jen + Casey + William + Claire : Grand Floridian Family Session

June 10, 2016 by Jensey 3 Comments

Ready for the best meet cute I’ve ever heard? Geeeet ready! <3

Jen and Casey met at Walt Disney World 19 years ago while they were in high school. Both of their families were staying at the Grand Floridian, and Jen and Casey hung out by the pool and really hit it off, but *completely* forgot to exchange phone numbers! Oh, high school. <3 Casey went home to Iowa, Jen to Ohio. Fast forward a few years and Jen’s in college, strolling through campus at Ohio State, when who does she see? CASEY.

I’m convinced that the very moment this happened, time paused when their eyes met and there was an explosion of pixie dust and an Alan Menken score started playing. Jen said they went out that very night and every night since. 9 years later, they were married and have made two pretty awesome littles, and we were honored to document how far they’ve come since that first meeting! <3

This first one’s my favorite, a little snuggle outside the pool gate where they met!

Keiko : Grand Floridian Family Portrait Session

April 24, 2015 by Jensey 4 Comments

Keiko, her mom, aunt, and grandma came to Disney for a girls trip, and I’m so glad they asked us to come photograph Miss Keiko! <3

Hands down, the cutest part of the session was Keiko initially freaking out when we put her on the grass. Her grandma said it’s been non-stop snow at home practically since she was born, so the grass was so foreign to her- She might as well be walking on the moon! Lucky for us, Keiko was good standing still on it after a while, and with the right mix of crazy aunt making her giggle and just the right amount of snacks to bribe her with, I think we came away with some downright adorable photos. <3

F A V O R I T E .

Keiko, thank you for being so awesome and we loved meeting you!!! :)
