I reply, “Anytime. It’s up to you, but it’s definitely a good idea that we get acquainted with each other before your wedding.”

Tom and Lena decided to have their engagement photos taken within the same week as their wedding. How the two photo sessions overlapped, I consider the whole thing just one big event. It also was rad because when I showed up to their wedding, it was really just a continuation from a few days prior. Great idea Tom and Lena, thank you.

Take a look, cause colors like these in fall wedding pictures are only possible for a short window in Iowa. Everything worked out better than perfect for a late October wedding.

I sent Brittany a text on the Sunday after Halloween to see if they wanted to do their engagement photos. Luckily she agreed and made this challenge a reality last minute. The weather was perfect for photos.

I am looking forward to photographing their wedding next summer, because they were extremely easy to work with. Cool, laid back, and natural…

Take a look at these photos, and enjoy!
