Here’s Jenn & Todd’s wedding! Ceremony was held at St. Columbkille in Papillion, and the reception was downtown at the Old Mattress factory. Jenn and Todd are good friends of ours, so I was really excited to get to hang out and capture their day. Here’s a bunch of my favorites, congrats again Jenn & Todd!
Here’s another maternity session! Jeff and Sarah just had their baby so I’m a little bit late on this one, but here’s some pretty photos of them pre-newborn! Congrats Jeff and Sarah!
Back just before Christmas I drove up to Milwaukee, WI to photograph my cousin Peter & his wife Lisa’s wedding. I was pretty excited to shoot this wedding, it’s always nice to see extended family and if I wasn’t shooting the wedding I probably wouldn’t know what to do with my hands. There’s a lot to like about this set. Super happy couple, creative portraits along Lake Michigan and lots of great dancing at the reception. If you get to the end of the set and ask yourself, “Why is that wedding party drinking beer out of a bedpan?” I think the answer is “Milwaukee” 😛
Congrats again Peter & Lisa, thanks for including me in the day. I had a lot of fun, here’s a bunch of my favorites.
Last Sunday I learned that ticks are a real thing and if you lie down in tall grass to get a cool picture you might acquire a lot of them. Suzanne, Jordan & I started out downtown wandering around Heartland Park and then moved on to some outdoorsey spots. I had a great time and it turns out we have some mutual friends. I’m looking forward to their wedding in August, hopefully with less ticks. Here’s some of my favorites from the session.
Alden & Erin were my first wedding for 2014. This is going to be a busy year for me and I was excited to get it started. I’ve set a number of photographic goals for myself this year. One of the more important ones is to really prioritize and focus on documenting family interactions. There’s a lot going on at a wedding and if you don’t force yourself to slow down and pay attention it’s easy to miss some of the quieter things that are happening.
With that said, Alden & Erin’s wedding was a perfect start for the year. Their ceremony was held at the Des Moines Botanical Garden, attended by family and close friends. The intimate reception that followed was at the Sheraton West Des Moines. Even as an outsider it was clear to me that family was important to this group and I’m glad I had the opportunity to document the day.
Here are some of my favorites!
