Allison + Rob [West Bend, IA Wedding Photography]

Allison and Rob were married on October 3rd, on a beautiful fall day at his parents' farm in West Bend, IA. The ceremony took place beneath a canopy of trees, under an arbor that Rob's dad built and where everyone in his family has been married. Amanda from Memories in the Making Event Planning & Design did a fabulous job with the ceremony decor of hay bales and vintage seating, and the aisle lined with mason jars of flowers on shepard hooks for an eclectic feel.

Allison and Rob are some of the best people I know, and I'm privileged to now call them not only clients, but friends. I definitely shed a tear or two at this one guys!! These two are truly some of the most genuine, kind, and funny people I've ever met. Oh, and every woman should have a man that looks at her the way Rob looks at Allison. It's really something special, and she just lights up when he looks at her.

Ok, I think that's enough gushing for now - this is a REALLY big blog post, so my apologies if it takes forever to load but I promise it's worth it. Allison and Rob - thank you so much for choosing me to be a part of your day, and I'm so glad we have become friends. I wish you guys the best always.

The S Family [Coralville, IA Family and Child Photography]

How gorgeous is this family?! Seriously, they get cuter every year, and they are the absolute sweetest family as well. I just adore them!! Aiden and Cole are so much fun, and it's been great getting to know the whole clan. We had a gorgeous September evening by the river, and had a ton of fun during the session. I will just let the photos speak for themselves, here are a bunch of my favorites!
