Iowa Wedding Photographer | Mary & Josh

The other day I posted a mini sneak peek of a beautiful snowy wedding I shot on Saturday.  This is the real sneak peek!  Mary & Josh had a quick engagement.  They wanted to be married and they didn’t care if that meant they had to plan fast.  They are care-free  and loving people and their wedding showed it.  Their wedding was a unique one as there was no dancing or even alcohol and yet it was packed.  People shared their loving stories about the two of them and still had a great time!  They even served yummy pies instead of cake.  Everything about this wedding was wonderful and homey.    Just like a giant holiday get together.

They even braved the snow and cold with me for some stunning portraits and I hope they fall as in love with them as I am!  Thank you Mary & Josh and everyone else involved in their day, I had a wonderful time peeking into your lives!

Ahhh it’s something I will never get to experience, living in Texas (unless I’m invited to one up north)… I’m so jealous… I love all of the photos of the bride — partly because she’s gorgeous, and partly because of your talent 🙂 — and of course the snowy portraits. Sigh 🙂

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
