Bobbie & Dan

Posted in Weddings

These two have been dating since high school and July 3rd was the perfect day for them to make their relationship official!

Bobbie and Dan love the Hawkeyes.  Their wedding colors were black and yellow (and it turned out so FUN), they took a Hawk bus for transportation and Dan’s one photo request was that we take photos with the HUGE statue of Nile Kinnick out in front of the football stadium.  My husband, Stephen, a diehard Hawk fan himself, loved it!

Bobbie is just about the sweetest person ever!  She was so gorgeous on her wedding day, with a radiant smile and some sassy yellow heels, she was the epitome of classy bride and a big Hawks fan!

Thank you so much for letting us be a part of your wedding!  We think you both have the most kind families and you all were a joy to work with.  Can’t wait to see more of you at Brooke’s wedding next year!

Genevieve & Jim {just married}

Posted in Weddings

What a lovely wedding this was!

Months ago, Vieve emailed me a photo of her wedding dress.  The second I saw her dress, my breath caught in my throat and I knew their wedding day was going to be outstanding.  Her.dress.was.gorgeous!  Seriously.  She wins the prize for one of our most unique dresses of the year…and, I personally, would love to wear a dress like this sometime.  (I may already be married but a girl needs to wear a pretty new dress sometimes…even if it would be to prance around the house in!)  Her dress and impeccable style left Stephen and I feeling inspired and we had so much fun creating images with them.

These two were troupers too…because their wedding day was very, very hot…and we went to a number of photo locations…poor Stephen would trail along behind us (he had recently hurt his knee) carrying bags of all of our gear while Vieve, Jim and I kept on keepin on!

But it was all worth it!

Vieve and Jim, you two were so very wonderful to work with!  You are such a fantastic couple and we were very blessed and honored to be part of your wedding.  Enjoy your time in Europe!  Every time I’ve seen a tennis racket lately, I’ve thought of you!  Much love, Sam & Stephen

I think this one is so funny!  They’re pointing to graffiti that says “Thug Life.”  Vieve and Jim are just about the farthest thing from “Thugs” as you can get!

They met playing tennis…so what could be a better prop than some vintage tennis rackets?!

Laura & Joey {just married}

Posted in Weddings

Laura & Joey had a spectacular wedding on June 19th!  The weather was perfect, her dress was perfect…everything was absolutely perfect.

My favorite part of their day was the extraordinary reception.  The Marriott in Coralville was the host and they went all out!  From the top to the bottom, their ballroom was breathtaking.  In addition, their reception was filled with some of our most favorite vendors!  Adam, from Tip Top Cakes, made the most gorgeous, moist and tasty cake we’ve had yet…and we’ve had the opportunity to enjoy a LOT of cake!  And, I cannot forget to mention the flowers…Kath from Racehorse Royalty created striking bouquets and centerpieces.  It was all just so beautiful!

All of these elements helped Laura and Joey have an amazing atmosphere for their wedding.  Their day was elegant, fun and yet still very personal!  Thank you so much for letting us photograph your wedding…we’re so honored you let us be part of your day!

Laura and Joey both got ready at the Marriott.  This provided wonderful backgrounds for our regular “getting ready” shots!

Their daughter, Madison, was the flowergirl…so I just had to get a shot of their shoes together.

Here is a repost of Maureen & Cullen’s wedding photos.  It was lost during the hack of our site!

Maureen and Cullen had a beautiful, intimate celebration at Old Brick in Iowa City.  And, afterwards, everyone played kick ball!  It rocked my socks off.

Nicole & Mat {just married}

Posted in Uncategorized

Nicole and Mat had an amazing wedding day in April.  Nicole went to high school with Stephen and it was fun to see her all grown up and looking gorgeous!

These two were made for each other.  From their secret glances to their warm embraces, it was obvious they have a strong connection.

Thank you so much for letting us be a part of your big day!

(Nicole, I agree with you wholeheartedly on the idea of shopping budget = hunting budget!  Now it’s just time to convince Mat!)

*To spice things up a bit, I thought I’d show you some of my favorite pages from their wedding album!  We offer top of the line hand crafted wedding albums.   And they’re completely gorgeous!!!
