Had a great experience working with Don! He is very professional and easy to work with. He took some amazing shots for the company and also made sure the delivery of the files was exactly what we needed. Highly recommend Don!

Portrait Photography
Mr. Shepard has a confident,relaxed and easygoing personality. He did not make posing or fake smiling a part of the photography experience, knowing that it would only cause discomfort and unnatural looking photographs. My son, who hates his picture taken, was able to be himself. Mr. Shepard kept things short, simple & led my son with a few suggestions just as my son wanted. Mr. Shepard has a innate ability to capture the extraordinary in the ordinary. He effortlessly captured raw emotion in the blink of an eye many times over. While his photography session may not be the cheapest of the cheap, trust me when I tell you it's worth every penny you have!!!

Don really came through for us to document our research session. We were coming from out of town and Don's communication was remarkably quick, clear, and confident. During the session he was a pleasure to work with and the fantastic photos he delivered were exactly what we were looking for.

Don Shepard is an absolutely excellent photographer! He was very professional and easy to work with, and I am incredibly appreciative for his flexibility with our schedule - when the weather was not cooperating he made follow up trips to ensure we got every shot that we needed. Every single photo came out looking amazing, and we could not be happier with the overall experience or final product. I would highly recommend Don for any photography projects - we will certainly be using his services next time we need a photographer in the Omaha area.

FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?I don't like to lose jobs over a few dollars, so I often ask potential clients what their budget is, and do my best to meet them at a point that is comfortable for both of us. My entire fee is always up front and there are never any hidden charges.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?Communication, and knowing exactly what my client wants from me. This is a partnership that works best when everyone is on the same page.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?I was educated in macro and forensic photography at such institutions as the University of St. Louis School of Medicine, the Southern Police Institute, and others. Additionally I regularly collaborate with and get inspiration from some of the finest photographers in the industry as well as other pros from across the country and constantly study the latest trends in editing, shooting, etc. There are countless resources for professional photographers who want to stay on top of their game.
