engagments & weddings
{simply married}
I used the word simple with this couple and their engagement photos too, because, to me, they portray a sort of simple, natural and easy love towards one another and their family. I think they were one of the most relaxed bride and groom I have ever seen, which makes it easy to just capture what the day is all about – marrying the person you’re wanting to be with the rest of your life, surrounded by the people that love and support you. Jessica and Reed’s day was just that, and I was so happy to be a part of it all!
{fall romance}
I could not have asked for a more perfect Fall day, with amazing colors and beautiful light, to capture the romance shared between this couple. I’m so excited to share these because I think both Kim and Lee look absolutely amazing, and I was reminded throughout the day why it is that I love doing this so much. I had such a fun time and can’t wait until their wedding next Spring!
{simply love}
You know it’s a small world when you move half way across the country and discover that people you went to high school with, and whom you haven’t seen in forever, live in that same town too! I was happy to get back in touch with Sarah and was even happier that she liked my work enough to refer her sister, Jessica, to me. Jessica is engaged to Reed, and with their wedding quickly approaching, we decided it was time to capture some moments of love before this happy couple ties the knot this fall!
{second shooting II}
This summer, I had the chance to shoot a wedding with another amazing photographer, Julie Branyan (www.juliebranyan.com). Julie is relocating to Phoenix, AZ at the end of this month, so I’m really going to miss her as has has become a good friend and inspiration! Hoping to keep in touch and watch her photography evolve as she continues to pursue her dream. Here are just a few a few shots from the beautiful couple on their big day!
{second shooting}
Over the last year, I have been so fortunate to work some amazing photographers from Iconic Photography as a second shooter. I feel that I’ve definitely grown as a photographer and have found a love for shooting weddings. Here are just a few from some weddings in Omaha.

Keelie & Mike
{happily ever after}
Yesterday, Mike & Mandy’s wedding day finally arrived! I was thrilled to be a part of this amazing couple’s beautiful day full of love, laughter and all things sweet. Just watching these two, you can truly feel the love that they share for one another and for all of their friends and family too. Here is a sneak peek of a few of my favorite photos from the day!
{red barn beauty}
Last Saturday, I photographed Joyce and Jeff’s wedding in a unique location — Bennington’s Big Red Barn. It is literally that, a huge red barn that has been converted into a beautiful wedding hall. The characteristics of it really seemed to fit the personalities of Joyce and Jeff. They both looked truly amazing, so I just wanted to post a few sneak peek photos from the day! Congratulations J & J! I had a wonderful time. 😉
{keeping cozy}
I had a wonderful time getting to know Joyce and Jeff who are getting married in less than 2 months! It was again another chilly day for engagement photos, but this couple kept close to each other and produced some beautiful photographs full of warmth & love.
{capturing the love}
I photographed Mike and Mandy’s engagement session down by the pedestrian bridge in Omaha. It was a perfect day with overcast skies, and we lucked out with having no snow. Even though our fingers were a little frozen, I had so much fun with this beautiful couple! I enjoyed capturing both their serious and fun sides, all of which showed their true love for one another. I am excited to be a part of their big day coming up in July!
{Jill and Chase Jansen}
Jill & Chase were married on October 16, 2009. It was an intimate little ceremony and reception, and the couple could not have been more happy. Their love and excitement for one another showed up in every moment captured. I was happy to be a part of their day and hope to one day capture moments of a little baby Jansen. 😉
