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 […]

Courtney & Aaron got married on the perrrrrfect June day!!  72 degrees, sunny, with the slightest breeze to cool you from the sun!  The perfect weather was just a reflection of the perfect love between Aaron & Courtney.  You can tell by the way they look at each other and hold each other that they […]

The morning after a January snow storm, Joe & Marcia woke up to their long-awaited wedding day!  The sun sparkled on the newly fallen snow and added to the brightness of their love as they got married in the sweetest, most intimate ceremony.   I met Joe before he had even met Marci – we photographed […]

Angie & Travis are the most relaxed, down-to-earth couple!  They are adorably sweet on each other and their little cutie, Tenley!  Their wedding day turned out to be a super sweaty August day, but they couldn’t have been better sports about it!  One thing I always keep in my camera bag is tissues – and […]

This was one of the most fun engagement sessions ever!  Marci spinned & twirled into the perfect poses with the perfect smile and Joe supported her the whole way through. Their chemistry is undeniable and their joy & laughter is contagious! As always, I am incredibly honored to be able to capture their sweet love!  […]

It was a B-E-A-UTIFUL Sunday evening as we drove to Aaron’s parents’ farm to take Aaron & Courtney’s engagement photos.  Our windows were down, the pheasants were playing in the grasses near the road, and the sun was shining in through our open sunroof.  Then suddenly, a looming, daunting storm cloud came into sight and […]

A + M were married at the Historic Park Inn in Mason City, and although we live here, we’d never really explored its details!  The straight lines, moody lighting, short ceilings (good thing we’re short!), and speak easy bar in the basement take you back to another era!  If you haven’t been – you definitely […]
