Category Archives: Just Because

Mentee: James

Of all the fabulous folks I’ve had the pleasure of providing photographic mentoring to, James is certainly the youngest. He’s an amazing young man whose excitement for photography is hard to miss. We’ve been working together for quite some time and the improvements he’s made in his images is notable… and of course, above that…. he’s having a blast (definitely a key component). :)

I recently caught up with James and his sister Catherine for a shoot to commemorate his senior year as well as to provide some additional hands-on shooting experience with his sister as the lovely and cooperative subject. Nice work guys!

Just Because: Erin + Marty

This darling couple has been married for five years and hadn’t done any family photos since their wedding…. so this was a long time comin’! :) So glad to meet you both…. thank you for thinking of KaBloom!

For the Crown!

For the past three years, I’ve had not only the honor of photographing various Mrs. Nebraska contestants, but have actually been fortunate enough to photograph the winner each of those three years! This year’s glamorous crown holder is none other than Jennifer Hart. She arrived with several jaw dropping gowns from the exceptional Omaha shop, The Winning Crown Boutique (owned and operated by past Mrs. Nebraska winner, Michele Strom). This one was my favorite. She looked like a living, breathing water-color painting!

Gorgeous as usual Jennifer! Best wishes at nationals!

Just Because…

Because you can. Because it’s fun. Because tomorrow is Tuesday (or… as I write this, tomorrow is Sunday).

Andy called me up (actually, he emailed me….) and asked me to book a shoot as a b-day surprise for his sweetheart. These two cutie pies are young college pups who just wanted to have some radtastic photos together. That’s about as much ‘because’ as ya really need. Way to rock it out you two!

(ummmm…. is she super model gorgeous, or what!?)

Lovin’ that scarf! I also was touched by the incredibly gentle way Andy has about him. He is an ever doting boyfriend. Always sure to open doors, etc…. appears that he is quite smitten!

Their ‘just because’ shoot took us to a carousel. Color me excited! That was a welcomed surprise!

Andy had some very definite ideas about what he wanted…. here’s my loose interpretation of one of them.
