Dani & Austin | Des Moines Wedding Photographer – Des Moines Wedding and Family Photography

I think if I had included all of my favorites from this sweet wedding, it would have turned into three posts! Dani and Austin are the sweetest pair and I am so very happy to have crossed paths with them. We truly fit – with their style, their personalities, and their humor. I knew we were a great fit when it POURED rain during their engagement session and the smiles didn’t disappear from their faces. Dani and Austin just went with the flow and it turned out perfectly. When the forecast for their wedding day called for rain (all day) they had the same relaxed, easy-going nature. The skies ended up clearing up at the perfect time and we were able to go with our outdoor plan for photos!

Dani and Austin, thank you so very much for choosing me to document this exciting new chapter in your lives! Enjoy (a lot of)my favorites!

I love that Dani included her mom’s gold wedding band with her rings!

A lot of couples shy away from using a parking garage for photos. When you think about it, it doesn’t seem like the most glamorous of locations. But the views and light are so worth it!

This pink wall was perfect with their wedding colors!

Windy days are tricky for photos, but I think the wind helps make for the best shots.

We had a lot of fun using confetti for Dani and Austin’s engagement session, so we had to keep up with the theme.

This was my first wedding at Sticks and I am in love!

I loved how there was a mixture of sitting and standing tables with food stations. So it encouraged guests to move around the space and mingle as the night went on.
