Ellie + Josh | Palisades-Kepler State Park Engagement Session | Mount Vernon, Iowa

Palisades-Kepler State Park in Mount Vernon was the perfect location for Ellie + Josh’s engagement session! Grayson even made an appearance in some of the photos! Tell me he isn’t the most handsome little guy you’ve ever seen!! Ellie + Josh are getting married on September 15th at St. Joseph Church in Elkader, with a reception following at the Old School Celebrations. Elkader is a beautiful town and Kim is so excited to photograph their wedding!!

“We have been together almost two years. We met a long time ago through his cousin and racing, but started connecting as more than friends about a month before/at Country on the River in 2016.”

“Our absolute favorite things to do together are to just relax at home & watch movies and go to the races!”

“Josh proposed a few days before Thanksgiving in the middle of my dad’s field. He started talking about building a house on the land, says he had already talked to my dad about it & when I turned around to question him, he was down on one knee with my son in his arms and asked if I would marry him & if he could be his daddy forever!”

AHH!! SWOONING over their proposal story!!! 🙂

“I love Josh’s ambition, but the thing I love most is that he loves my son with all his heart!!”

“I love that she’s beautiful, sassy, & an amazing mother!”

“The thing that makes us most excited about marriage is that we will get to be partners for life!”

“I’m most looking forward to our wedding ceremony & seeing Ellie in her dress for the first time.”

“We loved that Kim was so easy to work with! She was fun and patient, considering we had an uncooperative one year old.”

We’re counting down the days until these two say, “I do!” ❤️

Jacque + Zach | Engagement Session | Delhi, Iowa

Jacque and Zach are getting married on May 26th at St. Matthias Catholic Church in Cascade, with a reception following at the New Vienna Community Hall. Their wedding will feature black suits, victorian lilac and wisteria purple with silver accents. It’s going to be absolutely beautiful!

What is your vision for your wedding photography?
“I am hoping for a laid back/nonstressful day. I would like lots of pictures. Some of my favorite pictures to look at are ones that are not planned/informal; I feel like these pictures really capture people’s personality and the true spirit of the day. I would call our day more traditional themed.” -Jacque

What are you most looking forward to on your wedding day?
“I am excited for the entire day. Zach has even expressed to me how he can’t wait for the wedding. We can’t wait to be with all of our family and friends. We have lots of family traveling from across the country to come to the wedding. We also do not get to see our friends as often as we did once upon a time due to children now being in the picture for many of them, so in addition they will all be there.” -Jacque

The Proposal Story:
“Zach proposed June 17th. We had decided not to do gifts for the year but instead do a mini-trip to spend time together. We decided to go to the Tim McGraw and Faith Hill concert in Moline. Zach proposed after we had checked into the hotel just before leaving to grab dinner and drinks before the concert.”

“We enjoy doing anything outdoors, watching movies or sports, and spending time with family.”

“We are most excited to spend time together once we are married; living apart tends to make it more challenging, in addition to work schedules and school.”

“I love how he is always there for me and I know he will have my back in what ever I decide to do.” -Jacque

“I love how laid back our engagement session was! Zach and I felt very comfortable the entire time. Mandy was awesome to work with! Our engagement was everything I was hoping it would be! (minus the freezing temps 🙂 ).”

Lara + Peter | Palisades-Kepler State Park | Mt. Vernon, Iowa

Palisades-Kepler State Park in Mount Vernon was the perfect location for Lara and Peter’s engagement session! They are getting married on August 25th at Zion Lutheran Church in Iowa City, with a reception following at the Johnson County Fairgrounds. Jaclyn is so excited to photograph their wedding!!

“We’ve been together for six years and met at Tanager Place, where we both used to work.”

The Proposal Story:
“He proposed in November 2017. He called me and told me he got our dog a new dog tag that he thought I would like. When he got home from work he quick put the new dog tag on the dog (without me noticing) and he told me to call the dog over to me so I could see her new tag. It read, “Marry My Daddy?”

“I love how caring and thoughtful he is. He cheers me up when I am down. In some ways we are total opposites so we complement each other well.”

“I love how independent she is but also how she lets me take care of her.”

“We are so excited to start a family and enjoy our life together.”

“We always have fun together. It doesn’t matter if we are just sitting on the couch watching one of our favorite shows or are out trying something new. We love spending time together.”

Mandy outdid herself with Marty and Michaela’s engagement session! They were lucky enough to have a snowfall during the session, which made for some magical images! They’re getting married on November 10th in Earlville and we are so excited to spend the day with them!!

The Proposal Story:
“We were home getting ready to go to church. I had broken my foot so I was sitting on the couch trying to put my big boot on. When I looked up Marty was on one knee the n front of me. Of course we didn’t make it to church that weekend!”
