Sarah & Derek| Des Moines Photographer

I loved Sarah & Derek the moment I meet them. They were both such warm and kind people! Sarah has one of those inviting personalities that makes you instantly comfortable. She has a bubbly and amazing sense of humor. It was a little brisk the day of the wedding but honestly with rain, snow and a tornado all in one Iowa week; a little brisk was good! Lol As a Des Moines photographer, I love what I do. One of the reasons is the pure joy and raw emotions that I get to see and be a part of on a wedding day. It reminds me of my vows to my husband and the day we shared together. This one particularly stuck with me. I enjoyed listening to their pastor’s sermon about love and marriage. That it does have hard days but what makes marriage last is the respect for each other, the fire, the love and sacrifice. You are always putting your spouse’s needs above yours and vs. versa. My husband and I have been married for 8 years this year and I couldn’t agree more! It was a lovely ceremony and sentiment. Congratulations to you both!
