Brothers and family dog portraits Omaha Nebraska







There's something about the bond between kids and the family pet. Clovis, who is a mix of Labrador Retriever and St. Bernard, is a die hard Green Bay Packers fan and loves his dinner with a big bowel of Cheerios. He's a special man with a mellow and lovable personality. He loves to go to the beauty parlor on special occasions and spends serious game time with his brothers. The connection is truly special and I tried to capture that in these portraits. Some are formal, but some are simply candid and artistic which is more of what I love to create. I had the opportunity to shoot with the 24-70mm Canon L lens, it's heavy and big(expensive), but razor sharp, lightning fast and simply and awesome portrait lens that I am now in love with. Thank you Clovis for being a fantastic model!

Elmwood Park Fall Portraits Omaha




I had a chance to rent a fabulous lens this weekend and tested it on a beautiful willing model! The Canon 24-70mm lens is sharp, fast and produces stunning images! I wish it wasn't so heavy and big. That's a serious downside but the good def outweighs the bad! I'll need to do some further research on this fab lens. It's something that needs to live on my camera body in the near future for sure!
