Jennifer & Paul's Wedding

JoAnna + Josh | Lincoln, Nebraska

It was a beautiful summer day in Lincoln.  Josh and JoAnna's wedding day was full of joy.  Josh is the type of guy who can make anyone laugh and JoAnna is one of the sweetest girls ever.  Josh's humor always makes JoAnna laugh.  During the ceremony Josh and JoAnna surprised thier parents with a special part of the service devoted to sharing the impact that they have had in JoAnna and Josh's lives.  It was a powerful moment full of tears and touching stories of how their parents have invested in them.   After the ceremony was over we adventured down to the Haymarket to an amazing old door and rustic alleyway.  This quiet moment for pictures was perfect for reflecting on the day and their love.  The recepetion followed and it was full of dancing, laughter and joy.  It was a true celebration, and a blessing for us to be there.

Maggie + Alex | Firth Nebraska

Just outside Firth, NE, near Maggie's childhood home, rolling farmlands swayed with summer's tall green corn. The peacefulness of the countryside ushered in the celebration of Maggie and Alex's wedding.  The ceremony and tent reception were intimate and graceful.  The day was filled with such depth, richness and beauty that both Matt and I were so grateful to be a part of such love.  Maggie and Alex's love is layered with time, friendship, and faith.  

Hidden in a grove of trees, Alex and Maggie first saw each other.  At that moment love engulfed them with tears of overwhelming joy.  It was a moment we will never forget. Maggie and Alex are so much fun to be around.  Alex can always make Maggie laugh and Maggie brings a smile to Alex's face.

The wedding and celebration that followed were perfect. The tent was lit with family and friends dancing and enjoying the summer night.  As Maggie and Alex left the reception sparklers and stars twinkled in the night sky. Thank you for letting us share your joy!
