Leslie + Justin | Engagement around Jacksonville

I got right back to work when I got home from Vegas!  Friday afternoon I met up with Leslie and Justin for their engagement session.  We started at a fun park on the river and ended up at this fun little strip of shops and just ran around and explored.  We had some good finds!  I can’t wait for their wedding in November, it’s going to be at the new and improved Jacksonville Zoo!  They told me ahead of time that neither of them liked having their picture taken, but I was up to the challenge and think  we all ended up having fun!  Here’s your sneak peek and I’ll have the rest up soon!

 I think this is my fav.  I’m always drawn to the fun, bright colors:

We found some really cool stuff at this antique store!!  Lovin the title of this book!

This reminds me of when I was in school and we had to “cross-process” a roll of slide film to see how it made the colors all weird:

So, I wanted one more cool setting before we wrapped things up.  We came across this empty bar with a pool table and I asked them if they’d feel comfortable playing.  They said “sure” and racked the balls.  After a bit I realize, Justin knows what he’s doing!  Turns out they’re both on a pool LEAGUE!  What I thought was just a fun backdrop turned out to be something that really showcased their personal lives.  Love when that happens….

Yep, you guessed it!  Their wedding date is 11.7.09!  They’re lucky it wasn’t the 5th because Justin had already knocked that ball in.  🙂

    These turned out great. I love the ones of us at the pool table. And the book is great. Thank you so much. 🙂

    I can’t figure out which picture is my favorite! The one where Leslie is lounging on the tree, the first one in front of the graffiti, or the ones playing pool. You really captured THEM! What a unique photographer.

    Kylene you are amazing. I know these two hate being photographed and you did a fantastic job. Granted now Leslie probably can’t decide which she likes the best along with the rest of us.

The BEST investment I made for our wedding day was definitely booking Kylene and Ryan Studios! It was such a blessing to have you both there to capture all of the PERFECT moments of that day. You all made us feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the lens and all around were pleasant to be around.

Kylene and Ryan are the worlds best photographers! Not only did I love every picture they took but they also were great to work with. I am not the greatest when it comes to taking pictures and knowing what I might like but they knew exactly what I wanted even when I didn’t. I would highly recommend them for every event.

Ellen

They were the absolute best! So friendly, so fun and professional. The photos were amazing and they took the time to get some of the more ridiculous shots I requested. BONUS: they were amazing with our nephew. He is autistic. He was our ring-bearer and was having a difficult day, which isn’t unexpected for a day like that. Could not recommend enough.

Nora

Hands down, I would recommend Kylene & Ryan to anyone in a heartbeat. We used them for our engagement photos, a boudoir shoot for me, and our wedding photography. Every single time we saw their work, we were blown away. What first drew us to them was their beautiful work–but what also hooked us was how incredibly fun, sweet, professional, and hard-working they are.

Jenna

Wow, what an incredible experience! It was such a joy working with this team. They had us laughing and enjoying every minute of our special day. And the pictures are STUNNING! They really went above and beyond to create unique and memorable moments we will cherish always.
