Hey y’all! I’m a portrait + lifestyle photographer based in the Midwest. I’ve had some sort of camera in hand for as long as I can remember, but it got serious about 5 years ago when I purchased my first DSLR! All I’ve ever wanted to do in my life is create - but I never thought I would be where I am today. I truly am doing what I love and loving what I’m doing. xoxo, Jillian

We worked with Jillian at a wedding in Iowa City a few years ago now. She was the photographer and we were the videographer team and she was so kind and pleasant. An added bonus is that her work is stunning! Highly recommend hiring for weddings and gets an A for working with other vendors.

Jason Thomas Crocker Photography | Des Moines Wedding Photographer 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Van Meter, IA

Hi, I’m Jason, a Des Moines wedding photographer who travels around the globe photographing weddings. After documenting over 500 weddings, I can honestly say that no two weddings are the same! I strive for epic compositions with my photojournalistic approach to wedding photography to capture the true essence of who you are as a newly married couple. In addition to my skills as a photographer, I’ve also built my client experience to infuse more fun and less stress into your wedding day.

Jason is simply the best! We stumbled upon him after reviewing photographers in our area and it was the biggest blessing. He was super quick to respond after we inquired about availability and before we knew it he was taking our engagement photos! We made Jason aware of when we hoped to send out save the dates for our wedding and he got our photos back to us within a week of them being taken with a preview the very next day! Jason is super open to making your photos memorable so when we wanted a few photos with our pup and us celebrating with champagne, he was all in! Fast forward to the months leading up to our big day, Jason was always there with emails to make sure he was prepared and had all the details we were looking for in our photos. We have a big family so our shot list was a little long but come wedding day, Jason was firing through those photos to make sure we stayed on schedule. We were actually ahead of schedule all day long which I know is a result of his efficiency. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and we owe a lot of thanks to Jason for that. He was so personable with everyone he met and made taking photos fun! Our friends and family are still raving about Jason and we got married a little over a month ago! And can we talk about the quality of his work? They left my husband and I speechless. Jason, thank you for being you! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience or a kinder soul. We can’t wait to recommend you to all our friends and family and to have you capture our lives in the years to come! Love, the Barnes

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Awarded Best of Zola
Mae was an absolute pleasure to work with. I knew I liked her from the very first call. She was thorough and asked good questions to make sure she could capture what we wanted. I love the vintage-inspired look of the photos and video. She communicated when she said she would and I always received a quick response to any questions or messages I had. On the wedding day, I couldn’t imagine anyone who would make it as special as Mae did. She was more than a photographer- she helped me put on myself shoes, hyped up all the little details I stressed months over, and was just such a joy. I cannot recommend Mae enough. I loved all the photos and the video made me cry. Mae is the type of person you want to be friends with after everything is done. Trust me, book Mae!!

On the big day, they somehow managed to be everywhere without ever feeling like they were in the way. They caught all the laughs, happy tears, and little moments we didn’t even realize were happening. And when we saw the photos/video? Absolutely blown away. It’s like they bottled up the whole feeling of the day, and now we get to relive it forever.

Dan was absolutely amazing during the entire process, from engagement shoot to wedding day he captured exactly what I had wanted. What I appreciated was also how quick he was at capturing the perfect photos and guiding my husband and I during the shoot. Not only is he amazing at what he does but he makes it FUN! He even was partying on the dance floor and made my bridal party and I crack up. He also gets an extra star by coming in clutch and driving the bride to the venue on wedding day when the original ride broke down and we had to pivot to plan B asap! For the reception photos he captured tons of candid and action shots that I'll cherish forever.

I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

I've always been a creative at heart, my own mother is an artist so maybe it's genetic? However, photography was never on my radar. One fateful day, a friend reached out to me requesting engagement photos for her and her love. My iPhone and I were absolutely honored at the opportunity! After the debut of those beautiful, phone quality captures, the inquiries came rolling in! I was pleasantly surprised and within months decided it was only right to invest in proper gear. Officially established in 2021, I've been beyond blessed with the chance to meet so many wonderful people and capture their once in a lifetime moments! Anya Grace 🖤

Anya is a highly talented photographer. I struggle with following simple directions, which may be due to the language barrier as English is not my native language. However, Anya was extremely patient with me. I hired her twice for my wedding and graduation pictures, but I actually worked with her three times, including engagement photos, the wedding, and the graduation shoot. She made me feel like a celebrity in all the pictures. I highly recommend her to everyone.

She knows her stuff when it comes to weddings and knows exactly how to arrange the day so that it serves her client. She's also very, very good at adapting when things change (like when it rains on an outdoor ceremony) and reassuring her clients that we've still got it covered. She is a really good person who is fun to work with. She produces high quality work on the regular and her work is so beautiful!

Hey! I'm Janet. I'm a photographer/videographer based in the Twin Cities, specializing in elopements and intimate weddings. I document couples who are unapologetically themselves and want to do things their way - even if that's out of the ordinary.

I'll start by saying that I'm not typically comfortable in front of the camera and was worried about that going into our engagement shoot. However, Janet did a great job of listening to me and checking in throughout the session to see how I was doing - her communication and ability to adapt put me at ease! Janet is so fun and if you aren't friends with her already, you will be by the end of the session. On top of that, she is professional and talented at what she does and wants nothing more than to capture the true essence of people. We couldn't be happier with how our engagement photos turned out!!
