Wedding Booth :: Everything Bridal Show, Des Moines, Iowa

Here it is! After 3 weeks of attempting to be a woodsmith/trim carpenter the booth is complete! This literally took blood, sweat and tears to complete. Prints will be hung and a full mock up shall be done tomorrow before we load it all up! You must come out to see it in person. We also want to shake lots of hands and say hello to everyone! Hope to see you this Sunday.

Elizabeth and Sean :: Married :: Des Moines, Iowa Wedding Photographers

Goosebumps. I got ’em during this wedding. I’ve never had a couple quite like Liz and Sean. We had to give them almost zero instructions when it came to the majority of these photographs. If we asked them to kiss they would take their time, approach each other slow and act like it was a first kiss every time. Goose pimples.

It was a beautiful wedding in Boone. It kept with our theme this summer. Hot and humid.  Sean is in the Navy and will be stationed over in Europe where they will be moving later this week. Sarah and I feel very honored to have been the photographers at this event. It was a wedding that we will remember for a long time. Thanks to Liz, Sean and family for letting us come up! Have a safe and wonderful trip over to Europe!

And yes, I realize there are again a lot of photographs in this set. The crazy thing is we left out a LOT. I wanted to put around 30 more additional shots but I showed discipline and kept the numbers lower. I am really excited to deliver the remainder of these photographs.

Congrats you guys!

today

These last two weeks I’ve been living off of minimal sleep,  a terrible diet of fast food and sweating bullets in a non air conditioned space working on our booth for the bridal show. It’s finally nearing completion. The booth is built and the prints are on their way. Only a few last items to polish off and we’ll be set. I’ve tried to balance all of this with keeping up on our post processing. I am so thankful for everyone’s patience while we are in one of our busiest times of the year.

On my drive home from Ames today I was physically tired and was feeling the effects of sleep deprivation.  It has been exhausting trying to keep a good balance of everything and stay ahead.

But I realized something that made me smile. I get to prepare a blog post this evening and share a wonderful wedding. It sounds a little crazy, but this is honestly what keeps me going.

Check back later tonight! Liz and Sean’s wedding is coming up!
