Cutest Kid Ever!

Bella (from an Iowa shoot last weekend) might cause the universe to collapse upon itself if she gets any cuter.

40 Nights Receives Award from Governor

I'm thrilled to share some exciting news. The past year has been a lot of work, but it's paying off.

The Nebraska Department of Education has named 40 Nights Photography owner Nathan Chandler a 2010 Entrepreneur of Distinction.

This designation was extended to only four businesspeople in the state.

Governor Dave Heinemen offered his congratulations to each of the four entrepreneurs during an awards ceremony July 14 in Lincoln. The recipients were selected for their recent successes and their continuing efforts to provide quality goods and services in Nebraska.

So many shoots, so little time to update the blog. But here are some previews and outtakes from recent gatherings.

Quick Glimpses of Recent Weddings

I've been shooting like crazy and too busy to update this blog. However, I would like to share a few recent images.

New Products -- Metal Murals and Acrylic Prints

Metal murals are one of the coolest ways to display your pictures. Each section is 11.7 inches square and made of brushed aluminum. Simple snap rings connect the sections into one big work of art.

Metal murals start as small as 24 inches by 24 inches, or you order one big enough to cover your whole wall! If you don't like the image being split into sections, you can order it as a solid sheet.

Also new -- acrylic prints. You image is printed directly onto a clear, 1/4-inch acrylic base. As a result, the image looks somewhat 3D, and will grab the attention of anyone who sees it.

Below, examples of two metal murals and an acrylic print.
