Matt & Melanie’s Wedding! Wedding Photographer in Lincoln, Nebraska

I’m sure it’s just my imagination telling me that everyone is concerned about this, but maybe you’ve wondered…why do I not blog as many weddings as I shoot? Where are all the wedding photos I’ve taken? A lot of them are over on my Facebook page, but not many get blogged. The very simple reason is that it takes me a very long time to create a wedding blog post! Even longer than it takes to design an album. Seriously. It’s much easier to pick out my favorite 150 photos and put them all in a Facebook album for all to see. But a blog post is more curated, not to mention designed, watermarked, resized, reordered… So that is the honest truth why there aren’t as many weddings blogged here as, say, engagement shoots. So I hope you understand…and I will get better this year, I promise!

But without further adieu, today’s blog IS a wedding. The wedding of a friend of mine, Melanie, and her husband Matt. They’ve been married for a good six or seven months now (which shows you my lag time). I was truly blessed to be part of Matt and Melanie’s day. There was an inordinate amount of joy and happiness all around, from the bride (who was smiling so much I’m sure her face was aching just a few hours into the day) to the thrilled husband, to the very proud and happy families. What a beautiful day. It was awfully hot outside, as it tends to be in July in Nebraska, but these two were troopers as we drove around Lincoln! I hope you’re able to share a little bit of their joy!

Seth and Kelsey are engaged! Engagement and Wedding Photographer in Lincoln, Nebraska

This lovely couple had an incredibly beautiful fall evening for their engagement shoot! We visited Pioneers Park and enjoyed the blissfully perfect weather and the vibrant autumn leaves. Both Seth and Kelsey are from farm and ranch backgrounds, and they’re planning a rustic wedding this June. I can’t wait to photograph them again on their wedding day. Congratulations to them!!

of letterpress, flash drives, photo boxes, and more… – Wedding and Portrait Photographer in Lincoln, Nebraska

A fun part of running my photography business is choosing the products, papers, and other peripherals to represent Nikki Moore Photography to the world! I have spent a lot of time looking high and low for the perfect things: the right white printing paper, flash drives, welcome packets and all the goodies that go in there, business cards, and even the image boxes that now accompany my Creative Portrait Session. Each one is carefully chosen for quality and beauty. So while I’m not asking you to hire me because of the lovely paper things I use, I do want you to know that I only use what’s functional, well-designed and beautiful. So here’s a little sneak peek into the things that I use! (There are many, many more!)

First of all, check out these awesome wooden flash drives! I often provide full-resolution files on one of these beauties.  Next up, you can see the gorgeous letterpress paper I use. I positively adore letterpress. So last summer I decided I should use it for my business, too. I truly only use things that I love! I had my business cards, thank-you notes, booking cards, and even some super fun coasters printed at Pink Orchid Press. Stephanie did an amazing job! There’s a lot more that I use, too – she worked tirelessly to create a very large suite for me, and I should be set for a long time.

Next, check out these lovely photo boxes! If you choose the Print Collection of my Creative Session, you’ll receive all the images from your session in one of these classy display boxes. (Of course, they’re available a la carte too!) There is a space for a photo on the cover, a ribbon tie closure, and they will hold all the images from your shoot in 5×7 size. I am currently offering them in Cocoa and Indigo.

When a bride and groom decide to book me to photograph their wedding, I send them one of these highly informative packets! In the packet they’ll find their contract and invoice, some forms to fill out and an envelope to send them back, a guide to my policies, a beauty guide, business cards, and a welcome letter! I’ll be creating one of these for my portrait sessions as well, as soon as I can get to it!

Lastly, here’s a tiny preview of something very wonderful coming soon: a suite of heirloom albums and folios. The heirloom suite, handmade by artisans using traditional bookbinding techniques, will be the ultimate in luxury and quality..a true work of fine art, to proudly pass down through the generations.

Thanks for taking this little tour with me!
