One of my favorite places to shoot in Omaha is a nice clearing/bridge in Elmwood Park. Unfortunately, there was an unexpected Wedding ceremony going on so we had to grab a few pictures out of site and then move to my other favorite outdoor spot: the Regency Lake and Tennis Club. We had an awesome time and the lighting was PEFECT. Melanie & Richard are an awesome couple and I feel privileged to have taken their engagement pictures. They are certainly a fun & adventurous duo!

This was the first place we hit – I love the contrast between the stone wall and the green woods, plus we had some awesome, diffuse lighting coming in.
How cool is this location, right? See where that beam of light is coming though the tunnel – the other wedding ceremony was getting starting – it was certainly a shock to see 150 chairs setup and people in tuxes…we got some strange looks, but we tried to stay out of their way.
How cute are they?So by this park there is a reception hall that sort of looks like an Italian Villa, which was the second spot on my list of places to go, but of course the other couple’s reception was going on in there…we still managed to take this nice one on the back-side of the house (out of site, of course!)We then went to the Regency Lake and Tennis Club to catch the sunset, which while beautiful may or may not have had a *slight* mosquito infestation….My favorite of the day: Golden Light like you read about…I love couples who aren’t afraid to get a little bit adventurous. For the record this bridge was a lot more stable than the first fence we tried…I had an awesome time and we really captured some great pictures! Thanks guys!
