Iowa & Destination Wedding Photographer | Kelly & Darin

Oftentimes I meet couples that I really just click with.  I really had only just met Kelly & Darin 2 weeks before their ceremony for their engagement session.  Maybe it was because it was all so fresh and we had just hung out for their engagement session, but by the end of their wedding I had been promoted from photographer to friend.  Their wedding was a blast!  It was a dream of a day.  The light was hazy and soft and everything was just beautiful!  Thank you so much Kelly & Darin for letting me share your special day and for welcoming me to hang out after the wedding.  You guys are awesome!

I think it’s super important to feel some sort of bond with my clients.  When people are comfortable around me I get the best images.  This goes back again to why I offer complimentary engagement sessions with all of my weddings collections.

About Amanda

My name is Amanda and I am a professional wedding and portrait photographer based in Des Moines, Iowa. I travel the world photographing weddings and elopements! I have been shooting weddings 15 years now and I never tire of it. Each day is unique and beautiful in it's own way.

I absolutely LOVE being a wedding photographer. The fantastic moments you never expect, the tiniest details and all the love and craziness that goes on at the same time. It's all amazing and I feel like I have the best career in the world, getting to capture and help you remember all of it. Days flit by in an instant and it's my job to make sure you don't a single moment, or those feelings you felt.

In my free time I love spending time with my 2 beautiful kiddos and husband. I love to be outdoors camping, hiking or fishing, just being in nature. I'm obsessed with plants and gardening. I love finding the beauty in the outdoors and things around me. It's part of why I love photography so much, I get to find the beauty in others. Traveling and dragging my family along with me for photos is my absolute favorite! I also am pretty much a giant Harry Potter nerd. I'm obsessed with all things turquoise. I'd eat sushi every day if I could. I drink coffee ALL day EVERY day (ok and some wine) and fashion is a passion! I am a creative at heart so music and all types of art keep me entertained. I also make it a priority to be near the ocean at least once a year (if not more) and love to feel the sun on my skin whenever possible!

The best things in life are the people we love, the places we've been and the memories we've made along the way
