Wedding: Brooke and Justin

Update: Here is a slideshow with more of Brooke and Justin's wedding pictures. Click on the play button below to watch it.



It's been a busy day and weekend, but I wanted to take a quick moment to share with you a couple of our favorites from this weekend's wedding. The ceremony was held at First Plymouth in Lincoln and the reception at The Country Club of Lincoln. Brooke has amazing style and taste so it didn't surprise us that both places were decorated beautifully. We really enjoyed spending the day with Brooke, Justin and their families and will be posting a few more over the next day or so for you to enjoy.

Brandon and Kelsi

Summer is flying by. I still can't believe June is almost over!

Recently we had an engagement session with Brandon and Kelsi. I love it when a bride and groom have a special place or destination they want to take their photos at. For Brandon and Kelsi, we spent the last part of their session photographing at Kelsi's parents' land. My favorite part was walking through and taking pictures in the wheat field.

One thing I will always love about the mid-west is how awesome and friendly people are. After the photo session, Kelsi and Brandon's parents sent us on our way with home-made scones (which were delicious)! Kelsi and Brandon have been so much fun to work with and we are looking forward to seeing everyone again.

Happy Birthday Shane!!!

Shane's Birthday was yesterday and here's a pictures Shane trying to blow out the many candles on his cake :) He likes to call his age twenty-twelve, I am a few candles short, but my fear of burning down the house kind of made me stop at 24. For his birthday wish he just wanted to stay home and relax, so we grilled huge New York Strips, rented a movie and finished the night with a frozen yogurt ice cream cake and coffee from his new Bunn coffee maker!

Thomas and Jenna

Last Saturday we photographed a great wedding in Kearney. Jenna is the television host for Fox 4 & 17 and Thomas is so fun and outgoing. Neither one shy away from the camera which is a photographers dream. These two were so much fun and had so many ideas they wanted try, as you can see from the last shot.

Both Tom and Jenna wanted to get some pictures at the same pier where their favorite engagement pic was from. When we arrived at the park it turned out they were having the park's annual celebration, complete with bands and a couple moon bounce things. It didn't take Tom long to convince Jenna that it would be a lot of fun to get in and bounce around. I have to say thanks to all the kids who let us cut in front of them, only one of them was a little upset :)

Rusty & Hailey

Tuesday we had a small break between lots and lots of rain and I'm so thankful that we did. It gave us the chance to hang out with Rusty & Hailey and take their engagement pictures. As a couple they are so much fun. We're both looking forward to seeing them again at their wedding later this year.

Awesome Failures...

We saw this on DJ's blog and it's awesome so we had to share it with you.

What did we do on a Monday night?

Last night our friends Nate and Danielle called and asked if we'd like to do something different and go bowling. We had not been bowling since...well, I'm not sure. But, we all thought it sounded like something fun and retro so we went and had a blast! None of us scored over a 130 the whole night and a couple of us scored in the 70's a few times, but it was fun anyway.



Some more fun shots of the night. I had to take a picture of this top right one. Socks in a vending machine? That's a first. Fortunately we all had our own socks :)



Erin decided to do some fun experimental post-processing with these pictures of me. I like them.

One Last Tornado Picture

Ok, so we were done posting on the Tornado until we were sent this picture taken from someone driving by kearney on the interstate when we were hit by....I still can't believe the number....7 tornadoes in one night! Looking at this picture, I guess it's more believable. I'm guessing this is what we took a picture of out of our earlier blog out or south-facing window.
