Kicking It 1940s Starlet Style in Studio - Omaha Professional Photographer

Earlier this month I photographed Lynette in studio with a 1940's twist.  Today I thought I would share some of the fun ones with you. :)

We had such a FUN time.  This is probably one of my favorite sessions to date.  Lynette really embodied softness and femininity throughout the session and I fell in love with the frames!  It really makes me want to explore this a bit more. I think I might be inspired to do a personal project.  You can view more of Lynette's lovely images here. 

Early Evening Session - Omaha Professional Photographer

I thought I would share an image or two from a super fun session I had with a great couple.  They took advantage of the Limited Edition Mini-Session and scheduled their time slot for the very end of the day.  We rocked it out!  I could have photographed these two all day long. :D 

Headshots with Imagene - Omaha Professional Photographer

Who's Imagene?  Well, if you've been following the blog long enough you might already know but for those of you who are new here this post is where she has her first honorable mention.  Alright...so I name my camera.  It's cool. 

Anyway, I was asked to photograph an urban headshot session by some amazingly talented opera singers, Jennifer and Brandon  so they could have some updated headshots.  I was thrilled to work with them.  I was super excited because they traveled from South Dakota just to work with me! Talk about make somebody feel special. :) 

It was such a super fun session!  Imagine....Jennifer's heel getting stuck in a crack down in the Omaha Old Market and instead of a gasp escaping her mouth an amazing scale of beautiful notes came trinkling out.  Meanwhile, Brandon was singing quietly on and off throughout the couple hours we spent together.  I was loving every minute of it!  Best part?  Imagene LOVED them.  It's always nice to photograph beautiful people.  They definitely fit the bill.

Thank you, Jennifer and Brandon, for the opportunity to photograph you, for traveling to Omaha from South Dakota to work with me, for the fun time and laughs and especially for the talent that you shared with my ears that day.  I wish you all the best in your endeavors and I cannot wait for the opportunity to see your next performance!

Baby Sweetness + New Template - Omaha Professional Photographer

As you may have read here in my last post, I won some templates from a another photographer's giveaway on her blog--her templates are so cute; you should check them out.  Anyway, I couldn't wait to use one of them to create this beautiful piece of art for this family.  How adorable is this little guy?  There is something precious and beautiful about a mother's love for her child.  You can feel it in these images.

Sneak Peek from Mini-Session - Omaha Professional Photographer

The mini-sessions were a great success.  As always, Lynette was a great grip throughout the day and made my job much easier.  Here's a quick sneak peek from one of the sessions.  I wanted to use one of the new templates that I won from Wild Hearts Photography's contest. (Thanks again, Stacey!)

Spooktacular Custom Halloween Card - Omaha Professional Photographer

I find this cute card template from Luxecetera.  Lela will be handing them out at her classroom Halloween party later this month.  Remember, E. Vining Photography offers custom cards, invitations, and announcements for any occasion!  As mentioned in this post if you have had a portrait session with me and you would like to order custom holiday cards (yes, I'm mentioning the holidays---they're right around the corner and are going to be here before we know it!) E. Vining Photography will be offering the cards in increments of 25 per box for $65.00.  You can view some of last year's cards here and here . You can visit my fan page on facebook to see some cute Valentine cards from last year, too.

Gifts from Mongolia - Omaha Professional Photographer

My mother-in-law went to Mongolia to visit my brother-in-law and sister-in-law.  She came back bearing gifts.  I'll share Lela's gift with you first.  Kathy, my MIL, brought Lela back this beautiful handsewn Mongolian dress with a matching embellished fancy jacket.  It is traditional wear for Mongolian girls on special days or events.  Lela adores it!  Kathy asked me before she left to please be sure to photograph her in it...well of course!  As if I would pass up that chance! ;)  What my MIL doesn't know (and don't worry, I'm pretty sure she doesn't blog stalk me) is that her Christmas gift this year is going to be a HUGE canvas of Lela in her Mongolian wear.  So...if you are related..shhh! It's a surprise.  Don't ruin it for her. ;)

This is my favorite image.  I absolutely love it.  Although, this is not the image I will be giving my mother-in-law and I won't post it here or on FB just in case she does decide to take a peek at the blog.  Then the whole surprise won't be ruined...and also, I think I'll be giving her a color canvas.

 This particular image just puts a smile on my face.  It is such a genuine photograph and truly represents Lela when she is tickled about something.  I love it, not only as a photographer but even more as a mom.

Lela is always so fun to photograph...when she is in the mood.  This particular day was one of those days.  She was excited to help me make her Gramma's Christmas gift.  She was happy to put on her Mongolia dress...and she charmed me the whole session through.  You can take a peek at the color images here.
