Connor was great to work with! She was helpful, fun, and did everything we asked of her. Her different packages to choose from and add on services, such as coming to our rehearsal, made it easy to get the specific services we needed that fit within our budget. She was also great at getting our 4 year old flower girl and 5 year old ring bearer to pay attention and understand what they were to do. She made our big day so easy so that we could just enjoy it. Would definitely recommend!

We received countless amounts of praise from friends and family members on his professionalism and how he seamlessly blended into our day!

I’m Haverlee, (hay-verlee). Based in Iowa, I serve the Midwest, Western NC, Denver, and beyond. With over a decade of experience in the wedding industry, and well over 150 weddings photographed, it still surprises me how my love for this industry grows each year. This work is not about me, it's about the individuals in front of my lens. I can’t tell an honest story if I’m constantly interfering, directing, and manipulating moments. I want your photos to render cherished memories from your day with your people, not memories of your photographer. I’m there to tell the beautiful and imperfect story as it unfolds.

Awarded Best of Zola
Truly could not say enough great things about Haverlee and her immense talent! From our first inquiry email to delivering our final wedding gallery (early I should add), she was so kind, supportive and on the ball. Outside of capturing amazing moments during our engagement session and wedding day, one of the things we really appreciated was her willingness to help create our day of timeline. As a DIY bride, having someone who has done this countless times help us plan every minute of our day helped so so much and put our minds at ease. And let me tell you, day of, you won’t find someone else more prepared than Haverlee. She was there to help with make-up issues, fly away hairs, dress bustling, and even hand picking leaves and bugs out of the skirt of my dress to make sure our photos were perfect. Your wedding day is a once in a lifetime experience, highly recommend entrusting Haverlee to work her magic to allow you to remember the day perfectly thru her lens.

Linda and Liz have been such a joy to work with! They have been quick to respond to emails and happy to answer all my questions. When we met in person to tour the space, we felt welcome right away –– like old friends catching up. I love that VOWS is focused on small and intimate weddings – a lot of venues in town are geared toward the larger capacity and that's just not really our style. What's even better is that everything from officiant to photographer to food and drink is included in our package, so I don't have to stress over a million different things or vendors. Our wedding isn't until 2024, but we could not be more excited to host our close friends and family at VOWS! I am very much looking forward to working with the VOWS team as our date nears to finalize all the details.

Rusted Rose Studios is hands-down the best value photography you can find without sacrificing quality. Riley was so easy to work with from start to finish and made the entire experience feel natural and stress-free. I loved how they focused on candid, documentary-style moments while still giving guidance when we needed help posing. Their packages are incredibly budget-friendly compared to others we looked at, and the amount of photo quality we received was amazing for the price. Communication was clear, turnaround time was great (1 month vs my friends 3 month turn around…) and the final images captured the day perfectly.

I love people and hate crowds. I prefer long hikes in the mountains to ones on the beach, but both are better than sitting at home.

Colby photographed a wedding I was in in 2017 and I knew he’d photograph my wedding. This was before I’d even met my now-husband. That’s how good he is. Colby is phenomenal. We originally planned on a full wedding, but pivoted to an elopement and Colby was on board for the new plan. My now husband and I are not the photogenic type - you can’t tell due to Colby’s immense skill. He made us feel comfortable and relaxed and clearly knows his stuff. He got so many beautiful photos of our backyard elopement and downtown lunch afterward. We could not be more pleased with his work.

We used Complete for our DJ for our wedding and had a great experience. Cody was amazing and did a great job of reading the crowd and keeping the party going and also keeping our timeline on track. He took the inspiration playlist I shared ahead of time and made it his own. It was the most packed dance floor I've ever seen at a wedding!

Your biggest hype girl, professional third wheel, and love-story catcher. I’m all about building real connections with my couples so your photos feel true to you. With a dark and moody style, I focus on the raw, romantic, in-between moments — the deep breaths, stolen glances, and big belly laughs. This isn’t just about pretty pictures; it’s about telling your story honestly, emotionally, and artfully. If you're after a photographer who feels more like a friend, I'm your girl. Let’s make magic together.

Kay has made every event unforgettable! Her pictures are amazing & she’s not only our photographer now but an amazing friend!! She’s very friendly! My husband could be awkward in front of the camera sometimes & she made it very easy for him to laugh & smile in front of the camera. Her ideas when it comes to photography amazes us! We would bring her everywhere with us if we could. She did our engagement, elopement & big wedding. We LOVEEEE her work so much! Book her!! You will not regret splurging on your photos, especially when it comes to her. Her editing style is AMAZING!
