We're a husband-and-wife team who believe your wedding photos should feel like you natural, honest, and full of meaning. We focus on real connection, candid moments, and the quiet beauty in between. Our goal? To tell your story in a way that’s timeless and true to who you are. Every couple is different, and we’re here to capture what makes your love one of a kind.

Awarded Best of Zola
They are amazing! They captured every moment perfectly from before ceremony through the reception. We had a little hiccup with the power going out and they handled it perfectly. We had no power throughout the ceremony and family pictures. All of those photos turned out perfect because they knew how to handle the situation. I would highly recommend them for every photography need!

Before we pick up our cameras, we get to know each of our couples so we know who YOU are and what YOU want!

We want you to know all the secrets, maximize your time and opportunities, and get exactly what you want! We're honored to be voted Best of Omaha for 4 years running!

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved working with Chelsea and Jack. The style of their photos was what we wanted—classic, timeless, natural and true to color. They were a joy to be around and while present, seemed to fade into the background, allowing us to be together and in the moment. However, we both felt like they became friends throughout the day. She sent us a sneak peak while we were on our honeymoon and we can’t wait to see more!

Hi, we’re Kinsey & Matt—the husband-and-wife duo behind Nixon Photography. We’re hopeless romantics who believe love should be documented honestly and artfully. With 17+ years of experience, we capture weddings with a dreamy, editorial feel while focusing on real connection. We’re there for the quiet glances, the joyful chaos, the teary vows, and the moments you didn’t even know were happening—guiding you, hyping you up, and telling your story exactly as it felt.

We had the opportunity to see Kinsey and Matt work their magic at our friends’ wedding back in 2024, and we instantly knew they were the ones for us! Their fun, exciting energy and genuine personalities made the entire experience so comfortable and enjoyable from start to finish. Our October 2025 wedding wouldn’t have been the same without them. They took the time to listen to what we liked and the shots we hoped for — and then went above and beyond to deliver even more than we could have imagined. When we received our sneak peeks (so quickly, too!), we were absolutely in love. Every photo captured the emotion, joy, and magic of the day so beautifully. I can’t wait to hang their art in our home and admire it forever! Kinsey and Matt are so much more than photographers — they truly felt like friends celebrating right alongside us. Their involvement meant the world, and we’ll absolutely be shooting with them for any future photo needs. We can’t recommend them enough! 3

Jon was so great! His communication throughout the whole planning process was prompt and informative. I didn't worry one bit about him being ready or wonder how our night would turn out. He came with photo ideas and was great about last minute photo requests and changes. His brought a second photographer that allowed for both big moments and small details to be captured.

I’m a Nebraska based wedding photographer that craves those timeless and intimate moments. With over two years of experience and shooting over 50 weddings, you can trust I’ll never miss a moment. When I’m not capturing life’s most cherished memories you can usually find me spending time with my husband and son, tending to one of my many houseplants, or sipping an iced latte. I’m here to give you something that’ll bring you right back to the second in which it was captured. I’m so excited to get to know you!

We are over the moon with our experience working with Britt for our wedding! From the very beginning, she made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. Her communication was incredible, always clear and genuinely helpful. She went above and beyond in helping us coordinate with vendors and made sure every detail was aligned well before the big day. Beyond being professional, she was also so kind and lovely to work with. On the wedding day itself, she was an absolute calming presence. She made everyone feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera. She was the ultimate hype girl. Everything with her felt effortless, and her positive energy brought such ease to the day. Her assistant was also phenomenal! Both of them jumped in to help with so much more than just photography, and we are truly grateful. And the photos… STUNNING! Every moment was captured beautifully, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. We truly couldn’t recommend Britt more. She is an absolute gem, and we feel so lucky to have had her as part of our wedding.

Photography tells a story that words can’t. I love finding unique beauty in every stage that life brings. Your story, however mundane you think it may be, is unique. I want to capture that for you, whether it be an expecting couple going on an unknown journey towards parenthood, a newborn with oh-so-tiny details, or the unconditional love between a family. The images should speak for themselves: minimal guided poses, authentic moments and genuine emotion.

From the initial planning session to the day of, Autumn was a dream! She is a clear communicator & was able to get our vision for photos. She also helps lead the day to move forward seamlessly. Everyone loved her! The photos are amazing and unique. We are so happy with her being our photographer!

I’m Haverlee, (hay-verlee). Based in Iowa, I serve the Midwest, Western NC, Denver, and beyond. With over a decade of experience in the wedding industry, and well over 150 weddings photographed, it still surprises me how my love for this industry grows each year. This work is not about me, it's about the individuals in front of my lens. I can’t tell an honest story if I’m constantly interfering, directing, and manipulating moments. I want your photos to render cherished memories from your day with your people, not memories of your photographer. I’m there to tell the beautiful and imperfect story as it unfolds.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are beyond grateful to have had Haverlee as our wedding photographer. She is incredibly kind and thoughtful, and her warm, encouraging demeanor managed to make two somewhat awkward people actually feel comfortable in front of the camera! On the big day, Haverlee was so much more than just our photographer. She was a calming presence, a problem-solver (she even helped put pins in my hair!), and a true support system. Her expertise, organized timeline, and guidance made the day run smoothly! And then there's her work - absolutely stunning. She has such a gift for capturing real emotion—both the big moments and the quiet in-between ones. When we look at our photos, we’re transported right back to that day, and we can feel the pure joy all over again. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and it shines through in her work. We’ll treasure our photos forever and feel so lucky to have had her as part of our day. We highly recommend Haverlee to capture your special moments, too!

Love Knot Photography

  • Serves Valparaiso, NE

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

I love working with couples and getting to know you better! My hope is to get to your wedding day and feel like we’re old friends (like, I'd make the cut and be invited to your wedding if I wasn't your photographer!). I'm definitely a people person, so if we end up working together, be prepared... I will chat your ear off! I'm not into super stiff, micromanaged posing, I'm much more laid back than that and think we get much better energy in photos when we can have fun together and you can be yourself!

Isles of Ivory is a husband-and-wife wedding photography and filmmaking team based in Newport, Rhode Island, serving couples throughout New England and beyond. Our approach blends refined editorial imagery with honest, documentary storytelling—creating photographs that feel elevated and intentional without losing the emotion and spontaneity of the day. We believe the best wedding photographs come from a balance of thoughtful direction and knowing when to simply let a moment unfold. From quiet, unscripted exchanges to beautifully composed portraits, we create imagery that feels timeless, sophisticated, and distinctly personal.

From the very first conversation with Jackie and Drew, we knew we had found something special. They didn’t just show up to our destination wedding in Jamaica as photo/video team —they came as friends, as part of our celebration, and as people who genuinely cared about making every moment unforgettable. Jackie and Drew went above and beyond in every way imaginable. From our engagement photos to the entire wedding weekend, they made my husband and me feel completely at ease. I have never felt like a natural in front of the camera, but their calm, fun, and easygoing energy helped us relax and actually enjoy the process. They captured the essence of who we are and the love we share with so much heart. By the time our wedding day arrived, it felt like they were friends celebrating right alongside us—not just taking pictures, but truly experiencing the weekend with us. They seamlessly blended into every part of the wedding while still managing to capture the moments that tell the story of who my husband and I are together, and the love shared by our family and friends celebrating with us. And our wedding album? It’s absolutely incredible. I have no words, truly lol. Every photo is filled with life, light, and love. Looking through it brings back every emotion we felt in real-time, and we couldn’t be more grateful for how beautifully our story was told through their lens. If you're looking for wedding photographers who are not only exceptionally talented but also kind, genuine, and a total joy to work with—Jackie and Drew are it. We can’t recommend them highly enough. Choosing them was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. PS if you’re wondering if you should have video at your wedding, you MUST.
