Clare and Ben were married on August 13, 2011 at St  Andrews Lutheran Church in Cedar Rapids.  The reception was at the Lake McBride Golf Club. 

They were super to work with and up for anything photography wise.  🙂 

I truly wish you both a lifetime of happiness!  Thank you for choosing Visions Photography to photograph your special day!

Thank you also to Jaime Moquin for your always fantastic 2nd camera work!   🙂 

 

 

 

One of the things that I love about wedding photography is moments like these!  Mom and Dad are looking at each other and Clare is looking down the eisle at Ben!   Now take a look at the couple on the right!  🙂

This past Sunday I met up with Sheri and Justin to take some 1 year anniversary portraits! 

We started out in downtown Cedar Rapids, then made our way to Ellis Park.  We all had a great time and Justin was really into it!  LoL, if you know him, ask him about Volkswagen Bugs!  😉  Sorry Justin, I had to! 

A huge congratulations to Sheri and Justin on their upcoming anniversary, and a big thank you for choosing Visions Photography!

Last Saturday I met Leah and Taylor at Palisades-Kepler State Park for their engagement pictures! 

We started out with a little hike to the stone gazaebo where there ended up being no wind, really hot and sticky.  We grabbed a few shots there then went down to the beach area where there was a breeze and about half the humidity.  MUCH better, LoL!

They were both super to work with and up for anything!  I had fun and think they did too!  I’ll be photographing their wedding on Aug. 27.

Thank you Leah and Taylor for choosing Visions Photography!  🙂

As Always have a great day and Stay Positive!

Amore’ Couple Sessions

We found a way to take our couple sessions to the next level.  🙂

The verbiage below and concept for these sessions are directly from a fellow photographer named Jesh De Rox http://www.jeshderox.com/  Thank you so much for the inspiration Jesh!  🙂  

The photography is mine!  🙂 

While the beginning of a journey together certainly deserves celebration, as your journey with each other continues, each additional step is an achievement worth celebrating just as much, if not more.

Because of the way our minds work, the clarity we have about the importance of the ones we love can become muddy over time.  Though always within our reach, responsibilities, and misunderstandings can stack up between us.  Our ability to recognize what is precious is often set aside.

If a social ritual could be established in which couples are regularly invited to experience what is most precious in each other, the ripple effect of that clarity could shift the world.  This is the dream of Amore’ Couple Sessions.

Amore’ is not just a photo session, it’s a celebration of the love between you!  It’s designed with fun little exercises.  These exercises are designed to bring the two of you closer and rekindle that fire you shared when you first started dating.  This will in turn create some awesome moments to capture.

As Always have a great day and Stay Positive!

Christina and Blake were married on June 11, 2011 at Cedar Hills Community Church in Cedar Rapids.  The reception was at the Long Branch Hotel also in Cedar Rapids.  After the ceremony we made the rounds to a few bars in downtown Cedar Rapids. 

We had a blast, such a fun couple to be around! 

A special thanks to Jaime Moquin for her always great 2nd camera work! 

Thank you to Christina and Blake for choosing Visions Photography to photograph your special day!  Congratulations and hope you both have a lifetime of happiness together!

The slide show tells the story of the day, and the pictures below are some of my favorites.

Sometimes a moment has other elements you didn’t expect when you took the shot.  Check out the little boy in the background who is “checking out” the flower girl!  🙂
