Elkhorn senior pictures Part 2 - Fall, family and cars

When we began designing Teagan’s senior portrait experience, one of the things that he mentioned wanting to incorporate in addition to his skateboard was his car. And with a little collaboration, we were able to find a fabulous location that showcased both Teagan and his car.

Elkhorn senior pictures - portrait session designed for Elkhorn skateboarder

Senior pictures are all about celebrating a high school senior’s unique qualities and to celebrate a huge milestone in life. It’s one thing that I absolutely love about senior portraits - getting to learn about what seniors love and then translating that into a custom portrait session that will reflect exactly that. And I think we accomplished that for this Elkhorn South High School skateboarder.

The versatility of a story box

What if I told you that there’s an option fo gorgeous, heirloom artwork for your portraits that can be used not only as a tabletop display, but as a wall display, too? You might wonder, how can it be both? And the answer is: a story box.

The long game: my approach to every Omaha family and senior picture session

When it comes to your portraits, I think about where they’ll be decades even hundreds of years from now. Your family and senior portraits…they are special. Heirlooms. They’re meant to be enjoyed by you now, but also by future generations. Some day, they’ll be passed down in your family, and it’s my job to make sure that the pictures you take today stand the test of time. Check out 3 things that I’m super passionate about when it comes to your photographs.

2021: The Year in Photos

2021. What. A. Year. I can’t believe that it’s over and we are already a day in to 2022! This past year has had its share of ups and downs; despite its challenges I’m reminded of all of the fun I had with my camera! So, I decided to create a grid of 12 photos that highlight the year for me. And because I can’t just leave it at 1 grid, I made one for both me personally, as well as my client work.

A nod to her Native American heritage | Omaha senior pays tribute

When a former colleague contacted me to take her daughter’s senior portraits, I was honored. And knowing that the session would incorporate some special items that are a significant part of her Native American heritage made it all the more meaningful.
