A glorious day full of love, laughter and dancing. Started the beautiful, warm day at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church in Dubuque. This is where everyone got ready and where the ceremony took place.
The reception was held at The Grand River Center with some bus partying and bus hopping in between.

Emily & Matt

It was such a privilege to photograph Emily and Matt’s intimate wedding in northern Michigan. The whole wedding theme revolved around having a great celebration with very close friends and family. The cabin was on the AuSable river which is one of the best rivers for trout fly fishing. It is considered one of the best brown trout fisheries east of the Rockies.

Emily and Matt are both great chefs working at the Ritz Carlton in Florida and they cooked all the food for their guests. I must say that it was the BEST FOOD I have ever eaten at a wedding.

That’s how you party!

Iowa wedding photographer – Vassaly & Huu

Razvan — Mon, 19 Sep 2011 15:45:42 +0000

A beautiful Vietnamese – Laotian wedding at Bella Sala in Iowa City.

The day started at Sheraton Hotel in Iowa city where the wedding party had their hair and make up done. When I arrived there I found Vassaly working on boutonnieres for the guys – realizing that she forgot to order them from the flower shop. That’s why weddings are so much fun to photograph – there’s always something unexpected happening.

The whole day was a new and interesting experience. A mixture of Lao and Vietnamese wedding traditions – including the Lao Baci ceremony and a traditional Laotian dance.

Venue: Bella Sala Iowa City
Catering: Hunan Restaurant

Rachel and Preston are such a great couple with so much love for each other. I knew from the first time I met them for their Chicago engagement session that it’s going to be a great wedding. I wasn’t wrong. Their big day at Bella Sala in Iowa City was amazing.

I got to spend a beautiful day in Okoboji photographing Nicole and Jon’s engagement session. They showed me around town, had lunch at an amazing mexican restaurant, got coffee at Jon’s favorite coffee shop and got some great pictures together.

I got a preview of how their wedding is going to be and I can’t be more excited to get back and photograph it in August. It is going to be amazing. I promise.
