Welcome to our blog! Based in Omaha, Nebraska, Kameron Bayne Images, Inc. is a professionally trained, award winning, creative and relational-driven photography studio. We are available for worldwide travel and aspire to create cinematic images with a soul, depth, and geniune character. 

Although life extends far beyond our jobs, we are humbled and filled with gratitude photography is the kind of work that can express the intangible qualities of life and inspire us to live it more fully.  It is our belief that real life inspires beautiful, creative art and the more honest that art is, the more it inspires better living.  With this blog, we hope to explore the art form of photography, to grow as people, and find ways to contribute to the ever changing community of our world.  Along the way, we hope to provide a glimpse into the daily life of our studio.

Kameron Bayne, Photographer
With an educational background in philosophy, theology, interpersonal communication and conflict resolution, the first thing you may notice about Kameron is he’s awful at small talk.  But don't let that fool you!  He really enjoys getting to know people and has a gift for sorting out complicated ideas. A true artist at heart, the beauty he sees in life is inspired most by the invisible qualities of love, faith, and hope. Once behind the camera, his quiet presence becomes a source of confidence for our clients as they invite him into a small, but significant part of their lives.

Heather Bayne, Viewing Director
Heather is a genuinely caring, technical savvy, task accomplisher and problem solver (she used to take calculus classes in college just for fun!). With a positive and upbeat attitude, she heads up each viewing premiere. She also maintains the back-end of our computer systems, helps occasionally with retouching or album design and corrects Kameron when he mispronounces words.

Brenda Block, Client Relations
Disarming, outgoing and generous–Brenda loves people and can often be found chatting with anyone from the corner grocery store clerk to the CEO of a fortune 500 company. She will be the one to help you get acquainted with our studio and walk through the entire creation process. She’ll also be there at the end to ensure you had a wonderful experience working with us.

Our FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

“Do you accept credit cards?”

Yes, we do. We take MasterCard and Visa.

“Do you travel outside Omaha or Nebraska?”

Yes of course, we can travel anywhere in the world! Contact us for an estimate.

“What’s with the empty chair logo?”

Years ago, Kameron was part of a small faith community that always kept an empty chair around as if to say there’s always room for one more, there’s always room to grow – there’s always the possibility of a real and vibrant hope. So what do you see? Just an empty chair? Or do you see the potential already there? For us, the empty chair has become the mark of imagination – a concrete vision for previously unseen possibilities.

“Do you give out images on CD or DVD?”

We do offer a limited number of WebReady files of finished images from purchased orders. These images are designed to be displayed digitally for easy sharing with family and friends (email, Facebook, etc.) and are not suitable for printing. We also can create slideshows and videos to be played on your computer or DVD player.

“Can we purchase the RAW digital files to make our own album and do the printing ourselves?”

Although a lot of photographers advertise this as an added value, there is still a big gap between potential and actual value. A RAW image straight out of the camera is quite dull and lifeless (see below). To get professional results, there’s a lot that goes into the production of a finished print and album the average person isn’t aware of, such as density control, color correction, monitor calibration, matching printer profiles – and those are just the basics! There’s also retouching and creative enhancements and the art of storytelling and arranging images together in an album so a true narrative emerges. To complicate matters more, statistics show people who purchase these files rarely ever do anything with them and sadly end up with no tangible or real product to remember their experience.

For these reasons we generally don’t offer RAW files – it’s honestly much more of a heavy burden than a real value for most of our clients. As trained professionals, we take care of every step in the photographic process to ensure each final print reaches a level our clients will treasure as a custom work of art. You can see the difference here (left: unedited file straight out of camera; right: same image after our custom digital darkroom treatment).
