Brooke was AMAZING to work with. I am so happy we chose her (and she was available) for our engagement + wedding photos. She was personable, made the day go smoothly, get all the pictures we wanted, NOT TO MENTION they all turned out SO GOOD. I have no idea how we will choose, but we will sure cherish them forever.
BROOKE. IS. MAGIC. We used Brooke for our engagement and wedding photographer and I seriously can't stop looking at our photos (not because I'm a narcissist; only because they are SO BEAUTIFUL)!!!! She doesn't just capture photos; she captures the moments that I'll never forget! BONUS she is cool and funny all while maintaining professionalism. We've already told her that she will be our family photographer because we just love her so much!
My husband and I cannot say enough fantastic things about Brooke. When looking at her photos on the knot.com I knew she would be able to capture the day how I wanted. We loved our engagement photos and had a great time getting to know her during the session. When it came closer to the wedding the forecast looked like rain, so Brooke worked with me to ease my anxiety and found a backup location for us to take photos at if it did rain. The day of the wedding she did a fantastic job of making myself, and everyone else feel relaxed when taking pictures. Our wedding party also LOVED Brooke because she was efficient when taking group photos. It was 95 out the day of our wedding, and we took some pictures outside. She made sure we got the photos we wanted (plus some) but also didn't waste time and make people stay out the heat longer than needed. Brooke is also very flexible and is ready for any idea or photos that you want. I know that these are photos that we'll cherish for the rest of our lives. I would highly recommend having Brooke capture your big day!
Brooke was amazing!!! I had met with Brooke last year when looking for my wedding photographer, from our first meeting I felt an instant comfortability with Brooke. She encouraged us to do engagement photos which I am thankful we did; this allowed us to get to know Brooke and I used several of her amazing engagement photos for save the dates, showers, and etc. We just got married 2 days ago, and Brooke surpassed my expectations. Brooke and her assistant made me, my fiancé, and my bridal party so comfortable. Not only is she an fantastic person, she is even a better photographer. She has already shared some edited photos, and mind you we got married 2 days ago! The photos I have seen so far are truly breathtaking! I can't wait to see more. If you are looking for a photographer who is attentive to every detail, accommodating, makes you feel at ease (which if she can do this for me takes some talent), and a skill for soft editing......Brooke is your gal! You can't go wrong.
Brooke is amazing! She was able to shoot both our engagement photos and wedding day! Her easy going personality made us feel so comfortable in front of her camera. :) Her customer service and willingness to answer questions was top notch! The photos that we received are going to wonderful memories for years to come!
Brooke did such an amazing job with our photos! We had a ton of shots that we were hoping to get and Brooke worked with us to make sure we got them all! She was patient and fun to work with the whole day!
When looking for our wedding photographer, my husband and I were looking for someone that could capture natural photos with bright colors that didn't appear overly edited. Brooke was perfect for us! She has such a knack for natural light and shooting bright, vibrant photos. We were so happy with the pictures she took both for our engagement and our wedding day and her having a second shooter allowed us additional images from special moments we didn't even know were being captured until our proofs were received! Brooke is very easy to work with and enjoyable to be around. She is an expert in her field and one we'd definitely recommend!
Brooke is amazing! She was a calming and reassuring presence throughout the entire day <3 She was always readily available for my many questions/concerns and still is to this day. I would happily refer her to any bride!
Brooke is absolutely amazing!! We had her do our engagement pictures and our wedding day! We had our engagement pictures taken in Lincoln in the Haymarket and at Pioneers park. Brooke was very easy to work with. She gave us very good directive as my now hubby isn't the biggest fan of taking pictures! She even let us incorporate our puppy and my now step son. The pictures turned out AMAZING!! I honestly can't pick a favorite because all of them are so good! She gives you the rights to your pictures so you are able to print them wherever you please! For our wedding day, we had her shoot for 10 hours! She had a second photographer there as well the help capture those crucial moments. The pictures are everything I've dreamed of and more. They are romantic, fun, classy, and beautiful. Again, Brooke was so easy to work with! She told us where to stand and what to do! She was very good with the bridal party as well as some of the guys were having a little too much fun!
I HIGHLY recommend Brooke and LeBenz photography! She made the whole process so easy and her work speaks for itself! I will be having her do our future family pictures and baby pictures too!!
Brooke went above and beyond to make our wedding day one of our dreams. She had everything perfectly planned out.. Even when things didn't go perfectly as planned! She's kind, creative, passionate, and so much fun to be around. She calmed my nerves and kept everything on schedule the entire day. I am a self-conscious bride, and she reassured me with kind words and great poses. I would recommend her to EVERYONE and will use her for ALL of our big life events in the future. Thank you for capturing our special day. Your photos make our story a fairytale.
Once we started planning our wedding, the first thing on my future wife's mind was the photographer. We looked at different photographers around the area, and we decided to meet with Brooke. My fiance went and met with her and she knew right away Brooke was the one. I'm not a big fan of pictures, but Brooke was very personable and I was relaxed for our engagement and wedding pictures. We are so happy with our choice with Brooke. She made our wedding day even better!
Brooke is easy to work with. She went with the flow on our crazy wedding day and kept everything moving along! She was organized and made sure to get all the photos we had discussed. She got our edited photos to us in a timely manner. I love her photos! Truly unique
Brooke was so great to work with. She did our engagement picures and she made us feel so comfortable in front of her. She is so personable to work with which made the engagement session less awkward and more fun! We got our pictures back and I couldn't be more happy with how they turned out. I can't wait to display them in our house! I'm so glad I spent the money to hire a great photographer to capture one of the biggest moments in our lives! I can't wait for her to shoot our wedding!!!
Labenz Photography is one of the best photographers in the entire Eastern Nebraska area. Brooke is a small town girl who gets along with everyone and is so personable and easy to work with!
My husband and I are both horrible at lovey dovey photos, or really photos of any kind. Even though we went to take engagement pictures on the most freezing day of winter and Brooke was literally 8 months pregnant, she still made us smile and feel relaxed and have fun, even if it wasn't necessarily our thing.
We also had our wedding out of state and thinking back now, I wish I would've spent the extra money to fly out our favorite photographer. We will definitely be coming back home for pregnancy or family photos. The natural light photography that Brooke does just really brings out everyone's beauty but with natural, gorgeous lighting.
One things bride should remember is that photos are worth EVERYTHING years later and if you are going to splurge on one item, it should be the photos -- whether that's for engagement, wedding, or family photos. We love Brooke and highly recommend her to anyone.
Brooke is absolutely amazing! She not only captured our big day, she also did our engagement shoot as well! The photos are beyond breathtaking and come back to us very quickly! We used our engagement photos for our guest sign-in book and the quality is outstanding. We have even been asked by many family members just who our photographer was! She was great to work with, captured all of the shots we wanted and many we just love and wouldn't have thought of. My husband is quite a bit taller than I am but Brooke was absolutely up to the challenge. Thank you for the amazing photographs to remember our wedding with! We will treasure those and the memories we have made for years to come.
Brooke is beyond amazing! She is the best photographer you will find in Lincoln, and the best part is that she travels! Brooke took our engagement pictures in Lincoln (where I currently live) and she took us to all these beautiful areas to get the most amazing pictures! The same night of our engagement pictures she gave us not one but TWO sneak peeks from our photoshoot! My wedding was in my hometown (couple hours away) and she arrived no problem! Brooke has TONS of ideas that I would have never thought of, and they turn out amazing! As a bride, on your wedding day there is SO much going on, but Brooke made sure everything was going perfect with the photos. She is so calm and collected and really made me feel at ease. Again, the same night of our wedding (which she had to drive back to Lincoln after) she had a sneak peek! I just couldn't ask for anything better! I already know I'm going to run out of room in my house for all the beautiful pictures she has taken! Brooke is the nicest person you will meet, and she is so down to earth I never felt nervous or awkward around her, I could truly be myself! I highly recommend Brooke for any photographery needs! We can't wait for her to take maternity pictures someday ;)
Thank you Brooke for everything! :)
Our experience with Brooke was nothing short of amazing. She captured our day perfectly and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone. Thank you for capturing our love!
Brooke was an amazing photographer that I would highly recommend. She was very professional and was easy to work with. Brooke took both our engagement pictures and wedding pictures, which both turned out so wonderful! She went above and beyond to capture all of our special moments. Also we received our wedding album almost immediately after returning from our honeymoon which was such a great surprise.
Brooke was truly amazing to work with!! Brooke was professional and fun!! She went above and beyond to accommodate all of our wedding needs and capture all of our special moments. She made the formal pictures before the wedding a breeze. As the bride, I loved that Brooke took charge and got everyone organized and positioned for the pictures, (one less thing to worry about and do). Within 2 days we had a sneak peak of our wedding photos and were blown away at the precious moments she captured on our day. I would highly recommend Brooke for any of your photography needs!!
Brooke is beyond amazing! She is so kind and such a hard worker. My husband and I are both really awkward in front of the camera, but Brooke made it very easy and natural. I would definitely recommend Brooke because she takes beautiful photos and is such an amazing person to work with!
Brooke is truly an amazing photograpgher! She did both our engagement and our wedding day and she literally had ideas for us to do and I trusted her! She is so down to earth and hilarious! My husband and I are both weird taking pictures and she truly captured us being "us." I seriously don't know how I'm going to pick what pictures I want to put up on the walls in our house..can I pick them all?! I would definitely recommend her to anyone!!! She's the best and we will definitely be going back to her for sure for family pictures!!!
Labenz Photography is great! I can not say enough good things about this business. The pictures are so unique and beautiful! We did both engagement and wedding day pictures and could not have asked for a better photographer. Brooke also helped with the wedding day time line so we ran on time and got all the shots we wanted!
Brooke was so great to work with for our engagement and wedding photos. She made us feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera and we were able to get some great photos! She was also able to capture some of the photos that I liked when I was looking for ideas. Brooke also did a great job of keeping the day on schedule and making sure we got all of our shots in…which for an extremely detailed and organized bride, I greatly appreciated ;) Would highlight recommend her!
Brooke is amazing! When I started this whole wedding planning process I knew the photographer was the most important thing that I wanted to make sure was perfect. I couldn't be happier with how our engagement and wedding photos turned out! My husband hates taking pictures but Brooke made our engagement session very comfortable. She was so easy to work with and was very professional. We have pictures of the whole day/night and I love that when we are old we will be able to look through these and remember every little detail! I never knew a photographer would help out with details such as the flow of the ceremony/reception but that helped us out a ton. I highly recommend LaBenz Photography!!
LaBenz Photography did a fantastic job photographing our wedding! The pictures are exactly what we wanted! Book her now and you won't regret it!
I hired Brooke for our simple ceremony at the capitol and she did a fantastic job! She was very easy to work with. The pictures came back quickly and both my husband and I love them. They really captured the moment!
I left my wife up to most of the planning for the wedding. But, I did meet with the photographer when we were making decisions. Brooke was fun and laid back. She did an amazing job for both our wedding and engagement photos! I certainly recommend her to anyone getting married. I didn't realize how good photos could be until we worked with LaBenz Photography! WOW.
Brooke made our wedding day and photos more magical than I ever could have imagined. She truly captured the love between my husband and I - not to mention the great time we had with our wedding party that day. We didn't have to guide her in what we wanted, she just knew from listening to us in prior meets and conversations. I HIGHLY recommend booking with LaBenz photography!! I want to get married all over again every time I look through our wedding photos!
Brooke was easy to work with, and took great pictures. My wife and I thought all of our photos turned out great. We will definitely use Brooke again in the future!

Brooke is simply amazing!! She photographed our engagement pictures last fall and recently did our wedding. She is so great at capturing every detail and emotion. Brooke makes your session comfortable, and she is very easy to work with. Even my husband was able to relax for photos :) I would highly recommend Brooke, she does amazing work and is so much fun to work with!!! We adore Brooke and her talent!!
We were very happy with Brooke and her photographs for our engagement and wedding. We have hundreds of shots and the copy rights to everything so that we can print them for our family and friends. Very good value!
Brooke Graham is absolutely amazing! She is a joy to work with and takes fabulous photos! I am slightly bias but my husband''s and I's engagement photos and wedding photos are the most beautiful photos I have seen! I would recommend her a million times over and over! Thanks Brooke for making our engagement and wedding that much more special!

I couldn't be happier that we booked with LaBenz Photography! Brooke was a ton of fun. She listened to what we wanted but had her own creative edge, too. She also did a great job at capturing very true, genuine moments. I highly recommend LaBenz Photography!
Brooke was so professional and attentive to our wants and needs on our wedding day. My husband knew of her work and suggested we call her. I'm glad we did, our engagement photos were beautiful and she was a joy to have around on the wedding day. I especially appreciate the effort she made to meet me and my bridesmaids at the salon while we were getting makeup done, and then to drive to the church to photograph the rest of the day. Even though it was cold and windy outside (for the engagement and the wedding shoots), Brooke made sure we still enjoyed ourselves and captured some beautiful images.
I could not be more happy that we choose Brooke for our wedding photographer!! :) She did both our engagement and wedding photos. For our engagement photo session, it was FREEZING cold, but Brooke still took amazing photos and didn't mind sticking it out in the cold with us, not to mention putting up with our naughty pup for some of the photos! When it comes to our wedding photos, they were SO amazing as well!! We are very happy with all of our photos and couldn't ask for more. On the day of our wedding Brooke just felt like one of our friends that was taking photos for us. She was able to keep our big group in check and smiled all along the way. Her sister also assisted for our wedding day, and she was amazing as well! There was never a communication issue and I felt like I could ask her anything, even if it was minor. I would absolutely recommend Brooke to ALL brides and grooms! THANK YOU Brooke!!! :)
From the very first time we met with her (engagement pictures), she was very flexible and willing to work with us. She gave us great ideas for our engagement pictures and couldn't have been any more pleased. When the wedding day came, both photographers were very patient, even with our rather large wedding party. Very professional, great communication, highly recommend!
Brooke and Kayla did an amazing job capturing our wedding day. From start to finish, they were great in handling everything with such a large wedding party. Their unique ideas, great communication, and professionalism sets them apart from the rest!!

My husband and I chose LaBenz Photography for our wedding. Brooke is absolutely amazing! From our engagement session, to the day of, and to capturing every little detail of our big day, everything was perfect. On the day of the wedding, her and her assistant worked from about 10am to 11pm without taking any breaks for themselves. Brooke really made sure that all of our wants and needs were met and more. I just received the CD with our 800+ images on it and can honestly say she did not miss one moment and every photograph is beautiful. I couldn't have asked for more.
Working with Brooke for our wedding and engagement sessions was effortless. She was professional, flexible, and very creative. She allowed my husband and I to be ourselves and found ways to integrate that into the photography. Being photographed isn't always comfortable, but Brooke made it VERY easy.
On our wedding day, even with the excessive heat and rain, Brooke captured beautiful pictures of all of our special moments. Something that stands out with Brooke is how personable she is. When I met her, I immediately felt comfortable in her professional abilities. She is confident in her photography abilities, and that is a great quality for a photographer, especially for your big day!
I would recommend Brooke to family, friends, and anyone who is looking for a photographer that will capture the special moments in your life perfectly. Her rate that she charges is very affordable compared to other photographers in the area, and I felt her work was of very high quality.
Thank you Brooke for all of your hard work!!!
My husband and I chose LaBenz Photography because we loved Brooke's pictures and her price. We couldn't have picked a better photographer for our engagement and wedding photos!
Brooke was wonderful to work with. She was always very professional. We felt extremely comfortable with her and ended up having a lot of fun with our engagement session! She was very flexible and worked around our busy schedules to find a time that would work best for us. Our pictures turned out awesome and we got so many compliments on them!
We has so much fun with Brooke on our wedding day, too! She did such a great job of organizing our wedding day schedule and keeping everyone on track. Words can't even describe how happy we are with our wedding photos. Our pictures are breathtaking. We'll be able to relive our wedding day over and over, thanks to Brooke!
We highly recommend Brooke to any couples looking for an engagement/wedding photographer! We will definitely be using her for our maternity, newborn and family pictures in the future!
I can't say enough good things about how Brooke and her assistants conduct themselves on the wedding day. As the groom, I can't really say I get too pumped up for the photography aspect of the wedding day, but Brooke made everything so smooth and fun for not only my wife and I, but our entire wedding party/family. She is a well-oiled machine and has a great personality for the job. She provides great quality photos for a great price, and everyone who has seen our wedding photos has given her glowing remarks. I will 100% refer LaBenz Photography to any of my friends and family for future their future weddings.
Brooke who does LaBenz photography is from my hometown but I didn't actually hear about her photography business till my sister used her for her wedding. Brooke does an amazing job and makes sure that you get what you want. She has great ideas and is very easy going. She did engagement pictures for us before and they turned out amazing! On our wedding day she was on time, made sure she had all her stuff plus more and made sure we got all the pictures we wanted! I definitely recommend her as a photographer and it's very reasonably priced!!
Brooke has a great personality for the photography business. She knows when to have fun and enjoy as well as providing a professional attitude to accomplish great photography. She has a very creative mind for the job, and will get great pictures for any event. She was our wedding photographer and we were 100% satisfied with the whole day she gave us. If we need photography in the future, Brooke is who we will go with no questions asked.
Photos turned out exactly as I had imagined they would. Brooke was wonderful to work with on the day off the wedding!! I received numerous comments from other members of the bridal party on how easy going and fun she was. Between my engagements pictures and my wedding pictures I have gotten so many compliments! I recommend LaBenz Photography to everyone I know that is looking for a great photographer in the Lincoln and Omaha area!
Brooke was excellent to work with. She got all the shots I really wanted and many more. They turned out absolutely stunning. She was extremely easy going and laid back. Her picture quality is fantastic. She was everything I was looking for in a photographer and had a package that fit my budget and was what I wanted. Thank you Brooke!!
I loved it
Choosing a photographer is very, very difficult. There's a lot to consider: personality, quality, price. I don't live in Nebraska, so I couldn't meet up with Brooke at a Panera for coffee like we both wanted to. We did a telephone call instead. I cannot say how grateful I am that we were able to get Brooke.
She is so nice and easy to work with. We were comfortable with her during the engagement shoot (which can be a little weird if your not used to a camera in your face). She was the perfect amount of present on our wedding day (there for the right moments but we had privacy when we wanted, without having to ask). She's a doll.
She's giving us so many moments of the day that are beautifully lit, well proportioned, and with clear coloring. Brooke is very talented and continually trying new things. With her dedication, I'm really excited for where she's decides to go. She's captures the joy of of our wedding day and gave me stunning memories to help remember the blur of it all. Her pictures are beautiful!
The amount of photographers to chose from was overwhelming for me. So, I sat down and wrote a list of everything I wanted and how much I wanted to pay for it. It was a pretty lofty list. Brooke was the only one who could match it. She's able to give so much in her packages at a great price. For her sake, I hope not for long, because she's worth more. For your sake, I hope you book her before she realizes what she should be charging. ;)
I hope this is helpful for you, and I hope you find a photographer who is the right fit for you and your fiance. Good luck and enjoy this time!
Brooke was absolutely amazing to work with!! We had our actual engagement photographed and Brooke was extremely helpful and flexible with our package since we didn't need the engagement photo piece. She was very professional and listened to exactly what we wanted. One of the things that was very important to me were the candid shots because I feel like those capture the best memories. The special moments and memories she was able to capture brought me to tears and are truly priceless. Brooke was at the reception and continued to capture family and friends - we got so many compliments! The turn around time for getting pictures back is amazing and definitely the quickest out of photographers my friends and family have used in the past. I am so grateful for Brooke's work ethic and talent. Without a second thought I recommend Labenz Photography. We will definitely be taking advantage of her talent as our family grows. :)
When searching for a photographer, its hard to find one that matches everything are could ever want from the person who will capture the biggest day of your life....your wedding day. Brooke's pictures are simply breathtaking and she really makes you feel at ease when she is with you ( as we all know weddings can be stressful ) Her professionalism, fun spirt, and overall quality of work is amazing! She is the absolute PERFECT choice for weddings, and I will be using her for my photographs for the rest of my life. She is more than just a photographer, and I would recommend her above any other photographer out there...and if I could sum up our experience with her...I would have to simply say...THE BEST!
