Ashley + Brad [Williamsburg and Coralville, IA Wedding Photography]

Ashley and Brad's wedding day started out rainy and gray, but about 20 minutes after arriving at the church, the sky cleared and the rest of the day was gorgeous!! These two are a lot of fun, and love to laugh. The entire day went so well, and ended with an 80's themed entrance to the reception and a rap/toast by Ashley's sister Haley.

Congratulations again to Ashley and Brad, we hope you had a fantastic time in Napa and hope you like this sneak peek!

Chris [Iowa City, IA Editorial Photography]

I've been dabbling with some editorial type photography lately, it's so much fun for me to do something purely for myself. I've mentioned in previous posts, it inspires me in ways I didn't expect and ultimately makes me a happier person and better photographer. I think it's pretty common as a photographer to get to a point where you are busy (which is AWESOME) but stop picking up a camera just for fun, so getting back to shooting in my free time has been a breath of fresh air for me.

Huge thank you to Chris for spending his Sunday morning modeling for me, I appreciate it so much!!

Tru Salon Winter 2014 Editorial Shoot [Coralville, IA Editorial Photography]

These sessions I get to do with Tru Salon are so much fun, and this one with Chika modeling are some of my favorites. We got a little creative with the fan action and love how it turned out! Hair by Holly, makeup by Kayla (and Kayla did a fabulous job adding the "wind"). Love!!
