Greetings! I’m Heather (the one on the left!), and I’d love to share the story behind HEARTS in FOCUS.

We were recommended to Hearts in Focus by our wedding planner, and we're so glad we went with them. From our first conversation, the team was incredibly responsive, professional, and friendly. On the day of the wedding, they were a calming presence and captured all the special moments beautifully. The quality of the photos and video is stunning - we love how they were able to artfully document our day. Hearts in Focus provided excellent value and we would highly recommend them to any couple looking for talented photographers who will make the process seamless.

Kyrie Copeland Films

  • Cinematic style
  • Starts at $4,155
  • Serves Ames, IA

Time capsule films for memory collectors. Our ability to capture and preserve some of our most pivotal life moments really is a gift. Every film is intended to act as a time capsule for my couples to re-live in 25 years.

Kyrie is hands down the best vendor to work with in the entire wedding industry. If you're considering having a wedding video, check out her work and you will be beyond convinced that it is the most worthwhile investment of all time. Kyrie is insanely easy to work with and made our wedding day feel so seamless and special. Her communication is spotless, consistent, and effective. Additionally, we were *floored* that a mere week after our wedding we received a minute long preview video that was more perfect than we could have imagined. After a year of working with her, she felt like not only our videographer, but also our friend and forever hype-woman. We will never be able to recommend her enough!

Hi! We are Kurt and Madeline Drummond. We are a husband and wife team who are hopeless romantics and love capturing other's love stories through film. We met on Tinder, yes you read that correctly.

Carly from Rhoads to Memories was our videographer for our wedding in June 2023. I met her the previous year when searching for a videographer and we instantly hit it off and felt like friends right away! We spoke regularly and when she found out she was having a baby and her due date was only a few weeks after our wedding I still knew I wanted to stick with her as our videographer. I am so glad it all worked out and she gave birth only 3 days after our wedding. Personally, finding someone who is easy to talk to is one of the most important things when choosing vendors and that is exactly how Carly is! She is real, down to Earth, supportive, and very responsive to messages. Carly even helped sew my husband's suit pants right before our wedding when he had a hole in the seam! Our wedding video turned out amazing and we are so happy to have the memories she captured on film for years to come. Definitely recommend!
