Welcome to my blog. On this page you will find articles I personally write about the photography industry and my work. You will also see blogs showing the photos from many of my photo sessions.
Congratulations on your engagement! Now the fun part begins – figuring out how you want your perfect day to look. If you are looking for a venue with historic charm, plenty of space for your guests, and indoor/outdoor options, look no further than the beautiful Hillcrest Country Club in Lincoln, Nebraska.
Hillcrest Country Club in Lincoln was founded in 1943 to offer members social and leisure activities. They still have plenty of amenities, including a beautiful 18-hole golf course, a pool, tennis courts, and more. Their historic building is made of Spanish stucco and inspired by Spanish architecture. As such, it has a unique aesthetic, particularly for Lincoln. Even if you aren’t a member of Hillcrest Country Club, don’t worry – their event spaces are also available for guests to reserve.
Their wedding and events team embraces the uniqueness of each couple’s wedding day. They know that you want your day to be as unique as yours!
