Des Moines Wedding Photographer – Katie & David are married!

I confess I have been a bad bad blogger.  I have seriously slacked off putting photos up on my blog and I am very sorry.  I have decided that is going to change.  No excuses!  Yes, I am still super busy with photography and life but I know I owe it to my readers to keep it fresh! And believe me, I have plenty to post!! Tonight we went to meet Austin’s preschool teachers and loved them.  My babies are growing up so fast!  Lilia just had her 2nd b-day party this weekend as well.  She acts more like a 16 year old .  I’m not sure how that happened.  Everything has to be done by herself!  It’s amazing and a little sad (because I want my baby!) at the same time.  She LOVES dancing and will be going into her first dance class in a few weeks.  I have Austin going into martial arts as well.  These will be Monday evenings, so I will not be able to do anything photography related on Monday evenings.  They are both so excited, as am I!  I will be sure to post photos!  Now onto this weekend’s wedding!

I had the honor of shooting Katie & David’s gorgeous wedding last weekend.  It was amazing, THEY were amazing.  The venue (Des Moines Temple for performing Arts) was gorgeous as were they.  When I shot their engagement session I knew their wedding would be fun.  All they do is laugh and act silly with each other, I seriously have to do nothing to get their love to shine.  They are so fun to work with!  Not only that, but they made me feel at home as part of their wedding day.  I even had my own place setting (which you will see below).  Everything was just amazing!  Katie looked stunningly beautiful and everything fell into place beautifully.  See for yourself!!

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
