2022 Year in Review
2022 was a great year. I had the opportunity to shoot at many beautiful and personal venues. Some of my favorite photos from 2022 are heartfelt, some silly and some just transport me back to the couples wedding day so perfectly.
2022 was a great year. I had the opportunity to shoot at many beautiful and personal venues:
Noce DSM, Greater Des Moines Botanical Garden, the pond at West Des Moines Lutheran Church of Hope, The Loft DSM, The Hive at Busy Bee, St. Luke the Evangelist Catholic Church, The District in Ankeny, Valley Church in West Des Moines, and my last 4 travel weddings outside of the Des Moines metro.
Some of my favorite photos are heartfelt, some silly and some just transport me back to the couples wedding day so perfectly. Enough talking, time to show off the photos.

Des Moines Spring Outdoor Engagement Session | Ida & Jacob
Sometimes I get extra blessed with couples were we immediate click and feel like life long friends. The kind of couple who we just get each other and the more we learn about each other the more we ask “Did we just become best friends?”. Ida and Jacob were that couple for me this year.

Ida and Jacob ooze soulmates in the best way possible. While hanging out during their engagement session it was clear to me they are made for each other. The way the look at each other, talk about and with one another. It’s as good as it gets.
They requested nature only, so naturally we went to Water Works Park. Water Works NEVER disappoints and hit it out of the ball park for their engagement session. We got the best of the spring blooms, lake and open fields with yellow flowers sprinkled everywhere. The variety within this 2 mile radius is nuts to me (in the best way possible).
Ida and I bonded over the fact that we both thought dandelions were pretty and it was a shame people try to get rid of them. Seriously take a look at them. They add the perfect pop to these photos below 😍
If you are looking through these photos and saying “Hey! I’m a laid back Des Moines couple wanting quality photos that feel relaxed, real, fun and create memories in the process!” reach out below. We can bond over B-bops french fries being the best, Nacho Libre/Hot Rod quotes and talk about flowers that shouldn’t be considered a weed too.
