I talked my girlfriend into coming with me to be my assistant on a shoot recently for Girls Inc and took the opportunity to make a light test into a new headshot for her.

Maia || Omaha Portrait Photography
Had some fun with my friend Maia, she recently did her hair to match her favorite food, so we had to a quick portrait shoot combining the two.
Cristina
Rented a crazy lens this weekend and asked Cristina to stand in front of it for a few portraits and despite the cold and snow she did a fantastic job.
Echo and China || Omaha Portrait Photography
My friend Echo got a new cat, so I went over to her place to shoot some nice photos of the two of them until her cat had clearly had enough and then ran to hide under the bed. We still got some great pictures out of it.
Dominic || Omaha Headshot Photography
Dominic contacted me in need of a last minute headshot. With not a lot of time in our schedules or on the calendar to get it done we banged out a super fast head shot session and I was able to turn around the final edit with-in a day or two. Here’s a few images from the session.
Lauren || Omaha Headshot Photography
Recently my friend Lauren told me she was in desperate need of a new head shot for an event she was teaching at. Luckily we both had some free time and got together for a super quick headshot session to bang out some good ones. Here’s just a few from that short session.
Jon and Robyn | Omaha Pregnancy Photos
I absolutely love shooting weddings – they’re like an iron man event for photographers – you have a bunch of different types of photos to take, often in bad conditions, with very little time for each set-up all happening in one marathon day. On the other hand, I’m not really a big fan of doing family photos, mostly because I don’t feel like I can get the kind of quality photos I want and why offer a service you’re not happy with?
The problem is that when you shoot weddings your couples tend to want you to do family photos for them as they begin to start their family. In the past I’ve always resisted this a bit and referred past clients to other photographers, but this year I dipped my toes in the water by doing some pregnancy photos for a few folks. Jon and Robyn’s being the first session for a couple who I wasn’t doing it just for a friend that only needed one or two images.
I gotta say I’m pretty happy with the results from this shoot, so maybe I won’t shy away from stuff like this as much anymore.
Patricia and Jake | Omaha Engagement Session
It’s always nice to shoot photos for people you’ve known for a long time. Me and Jake have known each other for nearly a decade now, having played in a band together for about 5 years. Though we don’t keep in touch as often as we used to when we would have band practice twice a week, I was stoked he asked me to shoot engagment photos for him and his fiance.
We went out to Chalco hills and had to work against a crummy cloudy day and day light savings being that day we had an hour less “sunlight” than we would have had to boot. Luckily with some flash tricks we were able to create some nice light and give the impression of a nice golden hour.
Here’s some photos from their engagement session:
Kayla | Omaha Portrait Photography
Kayla needed some new photos for a fashion blog project she’s working on. While I don’t know much about fashion we had a great time nerding out about some marketing projects she’s working on for her internship at Bozell here in Omaha.
Brittany M | Omaha Portrait Photography
I don’t generally work with a lot of models nor do studio photos, but that’s something I’m interested in changing a bit as we have an empty room in our new house. After this first shoot with Brittany I’m definitely going to have to do more.
