Awarded Best of Zola
I worked with P&L last year for a wedding in Des Moines, Iowa. I was the couple's photographer, and they handled videography, and though we only met the morning of the wedding, by the end of the day we had become such lovely friends. I have so many good things to say about their creative work (the video turned out stunning, and the rest of their portfolio is also gorgeous) and their presence (I have never had an easier time working with a videographer.) They had an uncommon knack for shifting between taking charge themselves and allowing me to direct the couple or their families, all the while exuding a sense of calm and control that put me, and I’m sure the couple, at ease. I often find that working with other vendors can be an intrusive or even combative process, where each is trying to vie to be the most important to the couple and which ultimately serves no one—the couple, me, or the vendor themselves— well. P&L are the antithesis of that. They are friendly, collaborative, and genuinely love their work, and it shows in how well they communicate and how much they dedicate themselves to the cause of documenting a couple’s big day in the best way possible.

Hey friends! My name is Elizabeth and I’m a midwest photographer for the free-spirited. I call Iowa my home, but I’m always up for an adventure. My passion is capturing raw & organic moments to remember for a lifetime. I love being able to show your story by taking candid photos while being authentically you. Everything from the excited tears before the “I do”, to the laughter during toasts, my images bring back these memories for a lifetime. I’m a lover of life and people, and these two combinations make the most amazing pictures.

I’m a wedding photographer in Des Moines, Iowa. I want to help document your happily ever after. When I’m not shooting weddings, I enjoy spending time with friends, writing, and reading good books. Weddings hold a special place in my heart, and I would love to help document your special moments.

Haley Electra Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From our very first interaction, Haley and her team were clear, encouraging, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. They were so hard-working, willing to go the extra mile, and their final work was simply amazing. Haley was incredibly flexible, making sure we got every shot we wanted, and having a second photographer there made the getting ready portion of the day super easy and smooth. Haley and her team are not only incredibly talented, but also super sweet and a joy to be around. We could not recommend Haley Electra Photography more highly for any couple looking for wedding photography that will capture all the special moments of their big day.

I started my business back in 2017 in Minnesota. In the last 5 years I’ve photographed over 50 weddings. I specialize in Weddings, Elopements & Engagements. I’m an organized & detailed photographer that loves to capture raw emotion, details, & joy.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sara did a phenomenal job for our engagement photos and wedding. She was so nice but also assertive for group photos which our group needed! She came very prepared and brought along items like a stain stick and a bride hanger to be prepared for anything that could’ve happened to ruin the look. She was flexible with us when we decided to tweak our timeline a little bit during our wedding and made sure to just go with it and capture all the moments of us with our guests. She really takes time to get to know you as a couple and has so much fun with you while she hypes you up to get the best shots. Not only do I love her work, but her personality makes her a great vendor to work with!

Hi there, I'm Kirby! For those of you wondering, yes-Kirby is my real name. I'm SO excited that you have come to my page! I am a photographer serving the Des Moines, Eastern Iowa Area and beyond. In my free time you can catch me trying to keep up with my little man Eli and my husband Isaac. I love jamming out to all different kinds of music (ranging from good ol' Disney singalongs to some 90's classics), working out at home, and playing/watching sports (Go Panthers!). I often daydream about Oreos and milk, donuts and ice cream (or anything S'mores).

Susan Manning Photography

  • Classic style

  • Serves Melcher, IA

Photography has always been my happy place - I started shooting professionally after graduating college in 2017. Posing is necessary for some shots, however, I want to capture you being you. Let's have some fun together! I believe the best shots are the ones where you are feeling comfortable and being yourself. My personal assistant is my puppy, Theo. He loves to spend the day cuddled up under my desk while I'm editing. When I'm not shooting or editing sessions you can find me drinking ridiculous amounts of coffee, running with my pup or spending time with my loved ones.

From a videographers perspective, Susan was absolutely great to work with! She made sure to communicate with me throughout the day so we could both provide the best coverage possible for the couple. She was great at working with and posing the couple which always makes my job easier, and resulted in a beautiful photo gallery and film. I would highly recommend Susan to anybody looking for a photographer and hope to get the chance to work with her again in the future! :)

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Isaac did a wonderful job photographing our backyard wedding. He did a brilliant job capturing my visions as well as brought ideas of his own.
