There’s something about Omaha’s Old Market that feels timeless—the cobblestone streets, glowing neon lights, and an undercurrent of nostalgia and romance at every turn. When this couple envisioned an engagement session that felt cinematic and deeply personal, we ventured downtown for a night that played out like a scene from a beautifully shot film.

Our evening began on a rooftop overlooking the city skyline, where the soft sunset light wrapped around them, creating the perfect setting for documentary-style engagement photography. The laughter, stolen kisses, and quiet connections weren’t posed; they were authentic moments savored under golden light.

Then, we headed into the charming glow of Mr. Toad’s Bar, where vintage wood tones, ambient lighting, and warm energy shaped the perfect nostalgic backdrop. Capturing their playful smiles and genuine connection felt like filming a love story—moody, romantic, and beautifully imperfect.

These moments are why I love being an Omaha engagement photographer. I don’t just capture portraits—I document experiences. Couples leave these sessions with more than posed photos—they leave with memories that feel like a gorgeous evening spent being themselves.

If you’re dreaming of an Omaha engagement session that feels organic, editorial, and cinematic—whether on a rooftop or a cozy Old Market bar—I would love to help tell your love story. Let’s create something romantic, nostalgic, and entirely you.
