Wedded Bliss: Christian & Michelle

My husband has known Christian & Michelle since their early college years. When they called to ask us to photograph their wedding, we were honored! Christian & Michelle have been together for over 8 years, and have been through a lot together. They have such a deep felt, secure, authentic love for each other. They have the kind of love that has obviously been tested by fire and come out beautiful. It is amazing to see how Christian looks at Michelle with this incredible adoration. You can tell he treasures everything about her and feels honored to be her husband. Michelle's love for Christian is no less obvious. They aren't obvious in the over-the-top-obnoxious kind of way, but in the beautiful, genuine, no-one-else-is-here-but-us way. Its wonderful. Thanks to Christian & Michelle for this privilege! We hope your photos are a way to remember the beginning of your marriage forever.

The G Family

I have known this family for... over 10 years. It took me a minute to calculate! The oldest daughter was in the Bible Study I led back when I was a freshman in college. It is so incredible to think she was just 13 back then! And now she is a lovely adult! Her siblings aren't too bad either. :) We had a great time toughing out the heat, wind, and bugs on this typical Nebraska summer day. We laughed a lot, and managed to squeeze a good experience out of that humidity! The kids gave their mom a gift certificate for this session, and I was overjoyed. Their mom & I had been trying to work out a session for a couple of years now, so I was glad the kids took the initiative to get this together for their mom. This is just an all around great family, and I was honored to take their photos.

Spring Mini Sessions: the T Family

What a cute family! These boys are twins, and have the sweetest relationship. They are funny, energetic, and easy to photograph. Their mom is really kind, and just started her own jewelry business! It is always fun to meet other small business owners. We have to stick together, right? Boys this age are so fun. Nothing entertains them more than to make goofy faces and see themselves on the camera screen. We indulged in this for a good portion of the shoot! Their mom and grandma were good sports to play along with our games.

Mini Sessions: D Family

Love this dynamic mother-daughter duo! Little Miss Z. has such a spunky, fun, playful, demeanor! She had SO much energy but was also SO helpful and polite! Her mom is super sweet and nice, you can tell they have a great relationship. Part of the joy of photography for me is to try to get to know my clients in the short time I have with them and capture their relationships and personalities. It is a puzzle and a challenge, and I love the process. These two were so much fun to work with.

Spring Mini Sessions: the K Family

This family was so much fun! They had a great sense of humor, and we toughed out the extreme humidity and masses of mosquitos with lots of laughs! It is always enjoyable to see a family who really enjoys each other and knows how to have fun. And their son? SO CUTE! I mean handsome. I'm sure he's too old to want to be called cute! But that red hair? Love it! We played catch a little in between photos, we can't have all work and no play, right?
