Kristina and Matt's Engagement Photographs

We met up with Kristina and Mat in Omaha's downtown Old Market for ice cream before the shoot. Ted and Wally's is a great place! You should check it out (I am not endorsed by them, so this isn't an advertisement, but it is delicious ;) ).

After ice cream the soft gray skies illuminated the couple's laughter, love and rival banter (Kristina is a Michigan fan, and Matt loves Memphis). We quickly realized that Matt and Kristina are the type of people whom you instantly feel like friends with.

Their relaxed personalities and love for each other showed in every photograph. We look forward to spending more time with them and await with expectation for thier wedding day.

Sarah and Jason's Wedding Story

In an old country church, just outside the little town of Scribner, NE, Jason and Sarah were married.

It had been raining on and off for weeks prior to the wedding, the rivers were flooding and many roads were closed. Yet on Jason and Sarah's wedding day the sun shinned brightly.

Throughout the ceremony personal touches were intertwined as the bride and groom shared what they enjoyed the most about each other.

After the wedding the bridal party took pictures in downtown Scribner. The photographs captured the playfulness, enthusiasm and the originality of their day.

The reception hall was gorgeous. The aroma of delicious food and beautiful decorations enhanced the elegance of the evening. White tulle swayed across the ceiling, linens lined the tables, and candles lit the center pieces.  The atmosphere was full of celebration. It was a pleasure being apart of Jason and Sarah's wedding.

Ashley and Josh's Wedding

Josh and Ashley's wedding day was full of pure joy.

For the guys the morning began with the cool spray of wakeboarding and the laughter of friends.

At the church, as the bridesmaids prepared for the wedding, soft music played throughout the room. Tears rolled down Ashley's cheeks as she presented a letter of encouragement to her bridesmaids. 

During the pre-wedding photographs, I loved how the golden sunlight slipped through the green branches of an oak tree. Ashley's eyes seemed to glow and shimmer as she looked at Josh.

Throughout the whole day Ashley and Josh bubbled over with joy. Thier wedding was simply pure and beautiful. We were honored to tell their story.

Trisha and Jordan's Engagement

On a warm sunday afternoon we met Trisha and Jordan at Pioneer's Park for their engagement photos. 

The long summer grasses swayed light heartedly in the breeze as golden sunlight fell from the blue skies. From the cool shade of the trees to the releasing of the colorful balloons, Trisha and Jordan's engagement photos were just plain fun!

Everything about their love for each other was full of life and joy. Their spark kindled fond memories of summer afternoons full of laughter in our own hearts. 

It was our pleasure to be able to work with them. 

Vanessa and Joe's Wedding

One of Nebraska's first hot summer days came blowing across the plains on Joe and Vanessa's wedding day.

Some of my favorite photos were taken hidden beneath a grove of old trees. In these photos, I love the striking contrast between the ancient weathered trees and the fresh newness of the bride and groom. Vanessa's skin seemed to glow with love as her vail moved across her face. 

Surrounded by the warm laughter of friends and family, the day was full of wit and surprises.  It was great to be a part of all the festivities.

Chelsea and Evan's Engagement

The downtown Fremont shops were closing for the day, and the hot evening sun was sinking low in the horizon.  The almost deserted sidewalks and streets gave the perfect backdrop for the first location of Chelsea and Evan's engagement photos. 

For the second and third locations we went to a park, and a grassy field, laced with flowers.  As we shot their photos, their love became transparent as they shared secret kisses, romantic whispers and silly smiles.  Their connection was apparent to us, and a delight for us to capture. We are looking forward to their wedding in the fall!
