Life is such a beautiful and fragile thing. All of the minute moments seem so trivial and are so easily forgotten, but even the little things are precious. Every moment in life should be cherished, every memory captured. This past year I had the honor of photographing the most beautiful and heartfelt wedding I have […]
Hanna and Tyler met on a late night snack run through a mutual friend. They pretty much hit it off instantly. They began dating on Valentines day in 2015, and were engaged a little more than two years later under the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Watching these two together, it is evident that they are […]
Dave and Stephanie had somewhat of a whirlwind romance. They met online and dated (or “hung out” in Dave’s words) for a little over three months before Dave took a job a couple of hours away. They decided that the long distance thing wasn’t for them. After a few months of being separated, Dave realized […]
Brandyn and Angelynna got married this past summer in Des Moines, Iowa at the Waterworks Park with their reception held downtown at Ricochet. Their wedding had a beautiful, woodsy, boho vibe. It was absolutely stunning, despite the heat. Their wedding day started off with some late summer storms, but luckily the sun came out and […]
Alex & Lisa are two of the sweetest people you will ever meet. They are crazy about each other and their love is so evident. One of the things that really sweetened this wedding was how much they involved Lisa’s mother. You see, Lisa’s mother passed away from cancer 3 years ago. Her father and […]
This past fall I had the pleasure of documenting Jordan & Sierra’s wedding in Reinbeck and Traer, Iowa. They are the cutest couple! They absolutely adore each other and their love is so evident. One of my favorite parts of the day was taking Jordan and Sierra away for a bit to get some intimate […]
I met Brianna several years ago while camping with some family and friends up at Backbone State Park. She followed my photography after that and we became friends through Facebook. I was absolutely thrilled for Brianna when she and Eric announced their engagement, and I was so excited to be able to capture their wedding […]
Ben and Rebekah met online on a Christian dating site. From their story, it sounds like she had him at the first “wink”. They are a gorgeous, sweet couple and I was honored to photograph their wedding this past June. As soon I spoke to Rebekah about photographing her wedding I knew that I wanted […]
You may or may not know that I home school my three children. I absolutely love everything about home schooling! Seriously, I am not crazy. I actually very much enjoy spending every day with my kids. I love watching them learn and grow. I love their excitement when they grasp a concept that we have […]
My husband’s father and step mother live in Arizona part-time. We spent one of our family vacations with them earlier this fall. I used to hate the idea of Arizona. However, as my love for photography has bloomed, I have fallen in love with the unique landscape. Seriously, it’s gorgeous! The pops of color against the neutral […]
I don’t know about you, but my family LOVES food! We love to eat food, cook food, and watch anything food related on TV. One of my husband’s and my favorite pastimes is cuddling up on the couch and watching Master Chef. Of course in doing so we also need some kind of yummy snack because […]

This session was published on Midwest Bride‘s blog. Set in the historic Grout Museum District in Waterloo, Iowa this inspirational bridal […]
