Why we have the grandest job in all the land, as Omaha wedding photographers.
1. Vendor Relationships
We have developed AMAZING relationships with other wedding vendors in the Omaha area (all over really), and we are so incredibly thankful for them! Not only has it turned into a really fantastic referral system, but it's so fun getting to hang out with them "water cooler" style every Saturday. We love creating a team with them...eating dinner rolls with them...and riding in the back of cars with them!

2. Consistency and Reliability
Omaha is lucky to have a wedding industry that really, in the scheme of things, has VERY little turnover. Some of our very favorite people to work with have been in this industry for gobs of years. They're reliable...consistent in what they deliver...and are quick to help those that need it. Did you know that Janine has been shooting weddings in Omaha for 14 years?! Talk about experience! #humblebrag (McKenzie will be going into her 8th!)

3. Ease of Travel
No left on Dodge Street. Don't travel downtown during the College World Series. These are nearly our only restrictions in Omaha! We rarely have to deal with the crazy hustle and bustle of a big city, so traveling around with bridal parties is so easy. Want to go from your West Omaha church to a more urban spot? We can go to great little nooks like Benson, Old Dundee, and Florence with complete ease!
In addition, traveling to destination weddings is SO EASY and affordable from Omaha via Eppley Airfield! (Take us with you!) Honestly...Midwest is Best...it's what we always say.

4. Location Variety
The Omaha area is amazing because the variety of locations you can get married in is nearly endless. You can be in the heart of the city one minute and on a farm in a field the next! Golf courses, lakes, vineyards, farms, urban music venues...the possibilities are incredible!

5. Client Relationships
Our most favorite part of being a wedding photographer in Omaha is that a lot of our clients make their homes here...and we get to document their lives, not just their weddings. We become very attached to our clients and their families, and we feel so honored when we are asked to document their growing lives. We don't want to just be your wedding photographer...we want to be your life photographer.
