When Cassie first called me to tell me she was engaged and wanted us to photograph her wedding, I was ECSTATIC.  I first met Cassie & her girls at the gym and immediately fell in love with her little family.  I dreamed of photographing these adorable girls while visions of sugar plums danced in my […]

This one is special. The kind of special that makes you feel like you are living these moments with them.  Tears of joy + big laughs + bear hugs + those special touches inside those sweet moments…I can’t get enough.  I’m the type of photographer who feels all of your emotions with you on your […]

Amy & David were married on a gorgeous June day under some amazing oak trees.  Country View Acres is a new-ish venue to North Iowa, they opened about a year ago, and I’d go so far as to say it is definitely one of the best!  It has a perfect mix of rustic and elegant […]

It’s November.  It’s STILL FALL.  So why doesn’t it feel like it?!?!  These poor lovebirds had to brave this unbearably frigid temp to get some fall engagement photos!! I LOVE fall!! What happened?!?!  Either way, we still ended up with some pretty gorgeous engagement photos!!  We started with a fall-looking feel (our front yard!) and […]

Sarah and Daniel couldn’t have gotten married on a windier day!!  Seriously.  The farmers were out harvesting and the corn husks were flyyyying by the church windows as Sarah & Daniel tied the knot!  But what really “blew” me away (hahaha get it??? 😉 was Sarah & Daniel’s sweet love for each other!  I’m usually […]

You know how sometimes you have these people in your life that always hold a special nugget of space in your heart?   That’s Hannah. Hannah and her family lived in Clinton for a short-ish amount of time, but in that amount of time I found a beautiful friend!  While photographing her wedding we reminisced about […]
