North Central Nebraska Portrait Photographer: A Different Kind Of {Senior} Shoot

Meet Albert and Agnes.

Albert and Agnes have been lovebirds for over 65 years.  In fact, this year, they will have been married for 66 years!  Their grand-daughter, Erica, contacted me about doing a photo shoot for her grandparents a few months ago.  We set a date and traveled out to the lovely Eagle Springs Lodge in order to capture this wonderful couple.  I came armed with some questions about how they met, and what they loved most about each other.  They just cracked me up with their comments throughout the shoot.  When I asked them to just chat with each other for a few shots, Albert said, "About what?  We've already talked about everything!"  What a hoot!

They told stories of courting, going to barn dances, and how much Albert loves math (and is mighty good at it!).  We chatted history, rural living, and shared stories about our ancestry.

I am so honored that I got to capture this amazing couple.  66 years of marriage is quite an accomplishment, and something to cherish.

Thank you for the wonderful evening Albert and Agnes.  You are an inspiration!
