Sam + Katie

1. We are huge fans of Sam & Katie. I’m thankful Neal was able to meet them  & understand why I’m so thankful that our paths crossed back at the good ‘ol LMHS. 

2. They wanted us to re-create their first photo together. One that was randomly snapped in 2010 on a high school choir trip to Disneyworld. So much foreshadowing!!!!

3. They're ridiculously fun & wise & hilarious together. We can’t wait to capture their first day as husband and wife!

Michael + Megan

Iowa Octobers hold a beauty that can't be beat. So running around town on a crisp & golden October night with these two was thee best. 

Megan and Michael are seven months away from being husband and wife and what a joy it was to capture them in a season of sweet anticipation. Their giddiness and thankfulness for one another was easy to capture and so refreshing. They don't take themselves too seriously and were up for all our crazy ideas. Our time was filled with a little bit of dodging bikes & dogs, a whole lot of dancing to The Lumineers, hearing all about their story, & maybe accidentally trespassing on an abandon greenhouse....

We are so excited for the future Bowdens!!!! Here is some joy for your eyeballs. Feel free to share using thee icons above!

Jay + Sarah

We spent part of our Saturday hiding in the trees as the sky poured down buckets on buckets of rain. It was THEE greatest. Never have I been so happy to be soaked by the rain and while hiding a camera under an umbrella.

We were able to capture one of thee most joy filled humans kneel down under an umbrella & ask his favorite human to be his forever. And as the rain fell harder and harder, we watched a confident, grateful, & joyous yes be said. We celebrated from afar with them as we snapped their first moments as future Mr. & Mrs. & thanked Jesus for providing them such a gift in one another.

It wasn’t too long until Jay pointed us out and we were able to run over and  give them a big celebratory squeeze. The rain continued to fall and we caught an oh so happy Sarah and Jay continue to stand in awe of what just happened.

We won’t ever get over the gift it is to enter into stories like these!! We hope the images from that day give you a little glimpse of the joy and tears and the “I really get to marry this human?!” gasps that filled this moment.
