Iowa Wedding Photographer | Oregon Coast – Dustin & Sarina

A couple of weeks ago I was blessed to be able to shoot my beautiful cousin’s wedding in Eugene, Oregon.  It was an amazing trip and I feel so honored to have been there.  She, unfortunately, wasn’t able to do photos on the coast because of time issues.  But, I didn’t want to miss out on this amazing scenery!  So, my other cousin Dustin and his girlfriend Sarina offered to do a couple session for me so that I could get some lovely coast photos.  Living in Iowa, I don’t get scenery changes often, so I was so excited that they were willing to do this!  I don’t typically blog sessions as there are so many of them, but I couldn’t pass this up.  See for yourself how gorgeous it is there.  I can’t wait to go back someday!  P.s. Amy’s Oregon wedding will be on the blog in a few weeks and it’s it’s own kind of beautiful!

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
