I’m so happy to present Leslie and Marc’s Iowa city wedding to all of you. This wedding was circled on my calendar because I knew it was going to be extra special. When I first met Leslie it almost seemed like she was trying to sell Iowas city to me. Leslie grew up in Iowa city and is an alumni at the University of Iowa along with Marc. Their life together started here, so it was only fitting their next chapter together starts here too. I’ve heard so much about how beautiful this place was and to be honest, it really was awesome and more than what I expected. I really couldn’t have asked for anything more from this wedding. Great looking wedding party, beautiful location, over two hours for pictures, very friendly guests, and most importantly, getting to know Leslie and Marc. They are special people. I guess I could’ve used  a new shirt on the wedding day. I was sweating like Niagara Falls, It was pretty humorous.

Leslie and Marc, congratulations on your marriage and I wish you guys much joy! Thank you for the very thoughtful gift and always making me feel like a friend! Thank you for giving us the great honor of capturing your special day.

I want to thank Valerie Demo for flying out to help me second shoot this wedding. I just knew she would be the perfect photographer to work this wedding with me.  Thank you for your amazingness!
