Katie + Tony: Omaha Wedding Photography

This was officially my last wedding of the year, and what a great way to end 2014.  An unseasonably warm December day.  We didn't even need to wear jackets!

I absolutely loved Katie's style - the simple classic updo, the lace dress, the lace from her grandmother's dress sown into a incredible design on her veil at the  beautiful ceremony at the cathedral.  We even managed to wrangle Tony in for some great pictures.  Tony and Katie and their friends made it such a fun day to be part of.  I even got to try my first shot of *Apple  Pie*  :)

Congrats again to you guys and thank you so much for letting Kevin and I be part of it!  

Sarah + Marcus: Omaha Engagement Photos

These engagement photos were extra cool because we got to do them on Sarah and Marcus's one year anniversary.  And we started at The Holiday which is where they met.  How great is that?  

Then we hit up one of their favorite spots downtown - La Buvette.  These guys are soooo fun to be around.  I absolutely can't wait for their wedding.  

Nikki + John: Engagement session

Nikki and John have one of the most interesting stories of how they met.  They were both on an online chatroom that connected them with people from all over the world, and they were randomly connected with each other.  After they got to talking they realized they were both from Omaha.  How cool is that?  They met in person for the first time for a date at FilmStreams to see Casablanca.  

So... we started this engagement session on the block where it all got started.  Really loved hanging out with these guys and I can't wait until their wedding in July!

Greg and Ashley: Fall wedding, Omaha, NE

Greg and Ashley are such an awesome couple.  I've been looking forward to their wedding since I met them.  

My favorite weddings have nothing to do with the dress, or the details, or the reception location.  My favorite part of photographing a wedding is getting to witness authentic emotion and love, and Greg and Ashley's wedding day was just completely filled with it.  Greg's mother passed away a few months before the wedding, and even though I never got to meet her, you could really feel her presence throughout the wedding.  I loved the picture of her that Ashley had pinned on her bouquet, and the video they played before Ashley and Greg's first dance.

So happy I got to meet you guys and be part of your gorgeous day.  Thank you to Kevin for shooting this with me.  Enjoy the pictures!  If you look carefully, you'll find a very embarrassing selfie of me :)

Annette + Jason: Engagement

Sometimes the best thing to do in the winter, is to move inside for a shoot.  And man this was a great location idea from Annette.  Their outfits were totally perfect (Annette's dress - GORGEOUS!) and I love the throwback vibe from this shoot.  

...then we went outside and Annette threw a snowball at Jason :)

Thanks for the fun shoot and I can't wait until the wedding!
