These pictures take us back to their amazing wedding event. They are such a radiant couple and it was a pleasure to photograph this special time in their life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/favoritephotography.com\/blog\/wedding\/Jacksonville-Zoo-wedding-Photographer-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"Florida Wedding Photographer\" title=\"Pretty Bride Wedding Photo\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We started with a wet, but wonderful <a href=\"https:\/\/favoritephotography.com\/blog\/jacksonville-zoo-and-gardens-engagement-pictures\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">engagement photo session at the Jacksonville Zoo<\/a> which Ashley used for her save-the-date cards. When the big event finally arrived, the wedding weekend began with a festive &#8220;Welcome Reception&#8221; at River City Brewing Company and ended with a lovely &#8220;Farewell Brunch&#8221; at Ruth&#8217;s Chris Steakhouse off Jacksonville&#8217;s beautiful St Johns River. And in the middle was this most fabulous wedding at the\u00a0 Zoo and Gardens. Favorite Photography was on hand to capture the non-stop wedding bliss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/favoritephotography.com\/blog\/wedding\/Jacksonville-Zoo-wedding-Photographer-2.jpg\" alt=\"Creative Detail Wedding Photographer\" title=\"Wedding Dress and Details Photo\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ashley&#8217;s dress was stunning and the pop of pink she used in her flowers and details was a perfect accent color. The natural shades and vibrant pinks looked lovely against all the greens of the Zoo&#8217;s botanical gardens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/favoritephotography.com\/blog\/wedding\/Jacksonville-Zoo-wedding-Photographer-3.jpg\" alt=\"Natural Light Wedding Photographer\" title=\"Bridal Party Fun - Monogram Shirts Photo\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The subtle hints of wild animal prints capped off their zoo theme in a fun yet elegant way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/favoritephotography.com\/blog\/wedding\/Jacksonville-Zoo-wedding-Photographer-4.jpg\" alt=\"Documentary Wedding Photographer\" title=\"Grooms Gift and Brides Shoes\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/favoritephotography.com\/blog\/wedding\/Jacksonville-Zoo-wedding-Photographer-5-0.jpg\" alt=\"Photojournalistic Wedding Photographer\" title=\"First Look\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Devin and Ashley did a &#8220;First Look&#8221; so they could enjoy exploring the zoo with their bridal party.

My engagement photos, and then three different wedding events a year later (Welcome Reception, Wedding Day, Farewell Brunch) were all captured using this team. I still can&#8217;t believe how many pictures I have to sort through to choose the ones for my wedding album &#8211; that&#8217;s a great problem, to have too many photos to choose from! Their prints are extremely high quality, and I HIGHLY recommend purchasing proofing albums to help you in your selection for the main wedding album. These proofing albums also allow you to have every single picture taken in one place, at your fingerprints! They have been NEEDED in pouring over my pictures. I&#8217;d refer Favorite Photography to any of my friends\u2026their professionalism and photography skills cannot be beat!&#8221; &#8211; Ashley<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/favoritephotography.com\/blog\/wedding\/Jacksonville-Zoo-wedding-Photographer-9-2.jpg\" alt=\"Ceremony Wedding Photographer\" title=\"Wedding Ceremony at the Zoo\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/favoritephotography.com\/blog\/wedding\/Jacksonville-Zoo-wedding-Photographer-9-3.jpg\" alt=\"Unique Depth of Field Wedding Photographer\" title=\"Beautiful Bokeh photo of the Bride and Groom\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/favoritephotography.com\/blog\/wedding\/Jacksonville-Zoo-wedding-Photographer-10-1.jpg\" alt=\"Professional Wedding Photographer\" title=\"Bride and Groom First Dance\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/favoritephotography.com\/blog\/wedding\/Jacksonville-Zoo-wedding-Photographer-10.jpg\" alt=\"Experienced Wedding Photographer\" title=\"Bride and Groom Giraffe Cake Topper\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/favoritephotography.com\/blog\/wedding\/Jacksonville-Zoo-wedding-Photographer-11-0.jpg\" alt=\"Romantic Wedding Photographer\" title=\" A Romantic Moment under the glistening lights\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We truly love being wedding photographers and words can not express how joyous these moments are, but feel our work comes pretty darn close to capturing the emotions perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/favoritephotography.com\/blog\/wedding\/Jacksonville-Zoo-wedding-Photographer-11-1.jpg\" alt=\"Timeless Wedding Photographer\" title=\"Father and Daughter Dance - Mother and Son Dance\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/favoritephotography.com\/blog\/wedding\/Jacksonville-Zoo-wedding-Photographer-12.jpg\" alt=\"Creative Wedding Photographer\" title=\"Looks Like a Prince and Princess riding the Carousel\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Sivels for choosing us to be your photographers and congratulations on your anniversary!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/favoritephotography.com\/blog\/wedding\/Jacksonville-Zoo-wedding-Photographer-13.jpg\" alt=\"Talented Wedding Photographer\" title=\"Bride and Groom - Good Time With Friends\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jacksonville Zoo Wedding Photographers: Jerry &amp; Karen Favorite<br> \u00a9Favorite Studios, Inc | <a href=\"http:\/\/favoritephotography.com\/\">Favorite Photography and Video<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you&#8217;re WILD in LOVE with someone, what better way then to get married at the ZOO&#8230; And we love being a Jacksonville Zoo wedding photographer!
