Leeann & Brian | 12.28.13 Jacksonville, FL Wedding

I have known Leeann for years – she was a few years older than me, but we shared some friends in common and she’s also the cousin of one of my best buddies!  So I was thrilled when she wanted us to photograph her post-Christmas wedding!  We always love attending a good Arabic wedding cause they are super fun and packed with dancing.  This one was no exception, with another cousin giving a solo belly dancing performance to start everything off (good job Mary Alice)!  Leeann’s bouquet was one of my favorites of the year – a perfect winter grouping of pinecones and all kind of other beautiful things that I don’t know what they were.  😉

Her family has been “patiently” awaiting the arrival of more pictures, so I hope you guys enjoy!  I will be posting these on Facebook soon and then you can tag yourself away on those!

Ryan strikes again with his super crazy awesome cake shot!Blog023_Theiss

 

Their escort “cards” were these super cute pinecones, and each table was named after one of their favorite fictitious couples.  We sat with Susie at this table, “The Princess Bride” table of Wesley and Buttercup.  Blog024_Theiss

Leeann’s stepdad, Kenny, gave a very sweet and hilarious toast.  He made mention of her bridal shower where people wrote down tidbits of info for the newlyweds, and one of them was that you could either “love your spouse because of their quirks, or in spite of their quirks”.  He then went on to say he had a “short” list for Brian of Leeann’s quirks…..haha!

    Kylene & Ryan,
    These “love pics,” “Artsie pics”, “joy pics”, “fun pics”, “speechless pics” and everything in between are awesome. I cannot describe in words how much they mean to me and what joy I have each time I look at them. You both have an incredible gift and I honor your art work.
    Much Love & Thanks,
    Momma Candy

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.

Jordan

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.
