Preview of Alexis and Corey's Engagement Shoot! -- Engagement Photography in Lincoln, Nebraska

I successfully braved the cold this past weekend to photograph Corey and Alexis for their recent engagement! We had a relatively warm day, but two hours outside standing in snow and ice will really chill you! The first set of photos is from the downtown area, and for our second half of shooting, we visited a frozen pond. The shoot was fun, easygoing, and relaxed. :) Thanks, Lex and Corey!

 

 

 

 

new photos?

I need to post more often. I constantly find new photographs on my computer that I can ready for online debut in a matter of minutes...which is handy when I don't have time to take any new pictures. Hopefully I can get motivated to create some new art - but this year I've hardly taken any new photos of the wintry loveliness (that I hate driving in). I have, though, found some great winter oldies from last year's photo stash that I can share with you now.

This year's family Christmas present-opening photos were, for the most part, just as bad as last year's - except this year I condescended to use my built-in flash for many of the photos. I hate using the flash, but I also hate using ISO 1600 and still having to manually lighten every single photo because my parents still don't have enough lamps in the living room. Well, that is a lesson for everyone: Have enough lamps in your living room - at least enough light to appease your live-in photographer.

Oh yes. Old winter pictures. Here are a few for your delight.

Fence-ology

Taken a few hours into our journey back from Thanksgiving break....by this time we were still in northern Minnesota someplace...

I begged Johanna to stop driving so I could photograph this weathered fence!


Isn't it beautiful?

icy glory

ok, so today we do have two pictures. there was this incredible little icicle mass outside our front door the other day and i took many pictures of it. both of these pictures were taken within seconds of each other, but the second one has a longer exposure. the first one reminds me of gotham city; the second, a chandelier. :)

some of us drove to northern minnesota this past weekend. we visited my grandparents' farm. this is their barn and some wood that grandpa cut and bundled. he will plane it into lumber soon. i tried to make this picture look kind of old...
