Always fun getting e-mails saying we won things! Thanks Des Moines, Iowa Center Award Online Awarded for selecting Tanner and I as your “Best of 2017 Des Moines Awards” for the Wedding Photographer category! How fun is that!

Tanner and I have had a great adventure being wedding photographers together since summer 2009, meet some awesome couples (who have become friends) and make some wonderful memories along the way.

A little bit about the award, “Each year, the Des Moines Award Program identifies companies that we believe have achieved exceptional marketing success in their local community and business category. These are local companies that enhance the positive image of small business through service to their customers and our community. These exceptional companies help make the Des Moines area a great place to live, work and play.”

Nokes Wedding May 20th, 2017 | Downtown Des Moines Marriott Hotel Wedding | Des Moines, Iowa Wedding Photographer

Despite the foggy day we captured some amazing photos for Jen and Mike of their Downtown Des Moines Marriott Hotel wedding!

The fog proved to be a fun backdrop for the overview of the Des Moines skyline and the gorgeous purple May flowers blooming at the Iowa Capital really helped add in that pop of color!

Where to even start with these two?!

They both love doing adventurous things together which is so fun to see in couples!

Be it catching an Iowa Hawkeye football game (Go Hawks!), baseball game or concert these two love to have fun and make memories together!

I loved all the happy tears thorough out the day and it’s evident from the photos how much these two truly care and are meant to be with one another!

Even our quick trip to the German Bar Hessen Haus downtown was a pure joy for these two.

The Marriott did a FANTASTIC job at making sure everything was just perfect and what a great team at putting everything together flawlessly. And can we talk about that epic ballroom?! How elegant was that!

I am so so so excited to share all the wonderful images we captured for these two on their big day last Saturday, and thanks for having us! What a fun wedding day!

Kindred Wedding May 13, 2017 | Prairie Moon Winery Wedding | Des Moines, Iowa Wedding Photographer

Last Saturday we had the pleasure of capturing another gorgeous outdoor Iowa Winery wedding at the beautiful Prairie Moon Winery in Ames, Iowa.
Aleicia and Jared literally had a picture perfect day. 80’s and sun made for the best backdrop for all their photos.
We started out the day at the PCI academy for hair and makeup in Ames, I have to say the have THE BEST natural light for photos.
Their ceremony took place overlooking the vineyard with all their closet family and friends present.
We had a great time shooting and exploring around Prairie Moon for photos pre and post ceremony.
They were even as brave as to lay down in the vines for some fun drone photos from above!
At sunset we headed out for some more photos when the light was just perfect in the vineyard as the sun was setting.
May just has the best light! So exciting to be out shooting again after the long Iowa winter!
Before departing we had the pleasure of a quick shoot at night in the vines as well as by the reception venue.
Thanks so much for having us!
And so excited about all the gorgeous photos we captured from your big day you two!
