Rachel & Garretts Wedding

I have Rachel & Garrett’s wedding to share! Ceremony was at St. Matthew Lutheran Church in what I’d consider midtown. Reception followed at the Scott Conference center near South Campus UNO. In between we wandered around Elmwood park a bit for creatives. Things that stand out to me about this wedding. Tons of DIY decor. Guests throwing lucky charms instead of rice for the exit, while a somewhat less mature version of myself wept for the lost marshmallows. A game of jenga at the reception, with blocks so large it seemed positively hazardous to be around. Lots of dancing, fast and slow.

Here’s a bunch of my favorites. Big thanks to Christine McGuigan for second shooting! And Congrats again Rachel & Garrett!

Brianne & Ryan’s Wedding | Rococo Theatre | Lincoln, NE

Ryan and Brianne were married at the Southwood Lutheran Church in Lincoln NE. After the ceremony we went straight to the Rococo Theatre for the reception, because this was the hottest day of my adult life and I think we would have lost people if we had gone outside for pictures.

Things that stand out to me about this wedding. Ryan stopping by the house in the morning on an errand and sharing a moment with Brianne separated by the kitchen wall. Brianne’s dad’s reaction to seeing her in the dress. Sneaking 10 minutes from the reception in order to wander across the street for a few extra portraits after the evening had cooled off a bit. Driving back to Omaha with “Hey, what’s up? Hello….” seared into my mind. Kidding on that last one, kind of. 😛

This post is going to have a ton of images and I’m not going to try to cull it any further. Here’s a bunch of my favorites. Congrats again Ryan & Brianne, thanks for having me out to photograph your wedding, I had a great time!

Karin & Aaron’s Wedding | Holy Ghost Church | Millard Social Hall

Karin & Aaron were married a while back at Holy Ghost Church. We stopped at Halleck park for outdoor photos, then continued to the reception at Millard Social Hall.

Things that stood out to me about this wedding. Beautiful, temperate weather. Kind strangers jumping our limo while we were shooting creatives at the park. The best man giving a fantastic toast, and using crowd peer pressure to extort a hug from Aaron. A few quick sunset portraits at the end of the night.

Big thanks to Jameson Hooton of Hooton Images for second shooting. Congrats again Karin & Aaron and thanks for having me out for your day!

Robert & Emily’s wedding | Embassy Suites Downtown Omaha

Emily and Robert were married at the Embassy Suites Downtown a while back. A few of my favorite things from this set; the bridesmaids reaction to seeing Emily in her dress. The flower girl leading the ring bearer down the aisle with his eyes closed the whole way. Robert’s reaction as he sees Emily for the first time.

Congrats again Robert & Emily! Thanks for having me out to photograph your day!

Sam & Michael’s engagement session

Here’s another engagement session to share! Sam & Michael will be tying the knot in 2016. We started the session at Elmwood park, then ended at Chalco Hills. We found some nice light out at Chalco, and a ton of mosquitoes. If you’re thinking about heading to Chalco without bug spray don’t do it. Seriously, don’t do it. Sam & Michael were troopers and we got a lot of great stuff in spite of the bugs. Here’s a bunch of my favorites.
