Brice and Amanda were married on September 17th in Algona, Iowa. It seems like each year I have one wedding over in Algona, and I always enjoy traveling there - especially when the I get to see familiar faces from previous or future weddings! Brice & Amanda's day was a little on the chilly side - but we managed to get a lot of great outdoor images both before and after the ceremony. Here are a few images from their day.

Eric and Samantha were married back on September 3rd in Storm Lake. The ceremony was at the Methodist Church with a reception to follow at King's Pointe. During our time to photograph before the ceremony it really started to rain - but luckily Sam had umbrellas for the entire wedding party, which made great images! After the ceremony the sun was out and the weather was perfect, so we went along the lake for a some more shots before heading into the reception.
Here are a few images from their day. To see more, please visit my studio Facebook Page!
I thought today would be the perfect day to post my competition print images since today is the day they are being judged at the regional competition in Wisconsin! Here's hoping they do well!

Ben & Mandy were married back on August 27th in Marcus, Iowa. Once again - another fantastic wedding to photograph! I started photographing Ben & Mandy at the church around 1:00, and from there we went downtown to a few spots and then to Mandy's parents farm. Following the ceremony we went out into the country and to the local golf course for some more fun images with the entire wedding party! And as I am coming to find out - Marcus weddings are some of the most fun around! They go all out with the "stealing of the bride & groom" - and I get to tag along!
Here are a few images from their day......

Each summer I feel lucky to be able to photograph a fun wedding almost every weekend. And Guy and Elizabeth were no exception. Except when I say they were fun - I actually mean super duper fun! (that includes their wedding party!)
Guy and Elizabeth were married back on August 13th ( yes I am still way behind on posts) in Sioux City. It was a 2:00 ceremony, with a reception to follow at the Stoney Creek Inn with dinner and dancing. And oh my how they could dance! But before we arrived at the reception I already knew it was going to be a fantastic time - we had stopped for some photos down on Historic 4th Street and hit up the popular spot Buffalo Alice's. They were one of the most entertaining wedding parties I have every photographed - as I am sure you can see by the photos! Here are a few favorites of mine from their day......for more images, please visit my studio Facebook page!
Each year I attend the Professional Photographers of Iowa convention in Des Moines. Along with attending classes with wonderful speakers from across the U.S. and networking with photographers from around the midwest, I also enter in the annual print competition. This year I was honored to have won one of the top awards at the convention, the Don Knop Wedding Award, which is given to the top wedding image at the PPI convention. It means so much to have won this award as I was working for Don when he passed away.
Along with the Knop award, I was also honored to be named to the Top Ten Photographers with a 4th place ranking, and the Top Certified Photographer. I also received 1st place in the Wedding Album category, 2nd place in the Portrait of a Man Outdoors category, 2nd place in the Wedding Print category, 2nd place in the Wedding marketing category, and 3rd place in the Senior Marketing category.
