  • Serves Bondurant, IA

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
“We are beyond grateful to have had Haverlee as our wedding photographer. She is incredibly kind and thoughtful, and her warm, encouraging demeanor managed to make two somewhat awkward people actually feel comfortable in front of the camera! On the big day, Haverlee was so much more than just our photographer. She was a calming presence, a problem-solver (she even helped put pins in my hair!), and a true support system. Her expertise, organized timeline, and guidance made the day run smoothly! And then there's her work - absolutely stunning. She has such a gift for capturing real emotion—both the big moments and the quiet in-between ones. When we look at our photos, we’re transported right back to that day, and we can feel the pure joy all over again. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and it shines through in her work. We’ll treasure our photos forever and feel so lucky to have had her as part of our day. We highly recommend Haverlee to capture your special moments, too!”

What really stood out was how she brought fun and creativity to every moment—I'm not usually one for photos, but she made the experience enjoyable enough that I actually wanted to do an extra session with her. Her eye for unique angles and details is incredible, and the final images are creative and polished without feeling stiff or overdone.

“I rented the brown and white dance floor from DSM Dance Party DJs and the dance floor was absolutely beautiful and tied in all of my decor! I initially rented the 12x12 but then needed to make it larger at the very last minute because it looked so small with how our tables were set up, the DSM Dance Party team came back on the day of my wedding to increase it to 15 x 15 which made SUCH a big difference!!! Although, it was extremely inconvenient to come back to my venue and add paneling, they did it, and I could not be more appreciative because it looked absolutely perfect and was full all night long.”

“I'm a wedding photographer, and I recently held a styled shoot at VOWS. From beginning to end, the team at VOWS was a dream to work with. Not only are the people lovely, but this space is simply gorgeous. The room itself is very versatile and could be set up in a million different ways, but also needs NO extra decoration for those who love a clean and modern look (like me). It's a bright, minimalist space just a few steps from some of the best restaurants, shopping, and activities in the metro and tons of parking available. The front windows let lots of natural light into the space, while the pendant lighting in the venue allows for a warm and moody feel. The moveable wall (which includes a plain white side, and a greenery side, depending on your preference) can be adjusted to divide the room or act as a backdrop that fits any size wedding day. The couples lounge is AMAZING as well, with the cutest mural of historical wedding photos that is such a fun getting ready backdrop. Can't say ENOUGH good things about VOWS, but highly recommend you check it out in person. I can't wait to shoot a wedding for future clients here!”

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. I really, really don’t like having my photo taken - and if we have that in common, we might work really well together.

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.”

Helping people feel confident and beautiful is such a fulfilling part of this job, and being the go to on the day of your wedding is such a thrill- there's nowhere else I'd rather be!

“Corah is absolutely amazing. One day before our reception, we found out we had COVID-19 and had to cancel. We were able to have our reception at a different location, but with very short notice. She rescheduled, had another meeting with me, and helped me figure out times to set everything for. I knew already how wonderful she was just going through this process. The day of our reception, she was beyond helpful. She helped me with my dress, she found the bustles, she even stacked my cake to tier it when everyone else was afraid to! She made us feel so relaxed during the pictures, at one point we even forgot we were taking them. We had a lot of fun even though we were all freezing! My husband and my family usually dread taking pictures, but they all had so much fun and loved working with Corah. Although this was my first time meeting her in person, she acted as a friend by calming my nerves and making us feel comfortable, not just for the pictures but for our reception too. The pictures were BEYOND my expectations!! Some of the pictures I couldn't even believe were us, it looks like she took them from a magazine. I can't even narrow down my top 5 favorite pictures. I don't really have the words to describe how blown away I was while looking through the pictures for the first time. Corah is an amazing person, and photographer.”

From local Iowa venues to crossing state lines and flying over country boarders, I have had the blessing of capturing timeless moments of the most amazing humans you could ever meet! Can I be your biggest fan?? I want to capture your favorite memories, the highs, the lows, and everything in between, so that when you look at your images you can remember exactly how you felt in those moments. I want you to see just how captivating and special you truly are.

“Laura photographed my friend’s wedding (Alyssa & Michael) in August 2025, and she did an absolutely phenomenal job. She has such a sweet personality and was incredibly thoughtful, intentional, and organized throughout the entire day. One of the most special touches was the small Polaroid album she put together for them to take home at the end of the night.”

Hi! My name is Ashley Archer, also known as 29 Films! I love sharing and capturing these big life moments in a way that keeps them fresh in our minds. My favorite part of wedding videography is hearing about the couples' unique love story and being able to capture that love on film. I love making people smile, traveling, spending time with those I love, and watching Rom Coms :) . I moved to the Des Moines area in 2020 and have been pursuing my passion of videography ever since! ​

I love LOVE! I absolutely love capturing the authentic and loving moments between two individuals. I like to showcase you in a way that is unique and fun! I specialize in couples, weddings, maternity, boudoir and seniors. My editing style is considered dark and moody but I like to be able to capture candid and authentic moments between two individuals.

“Demi is amazing! She does it all and is down to try new ideas sent her way! Even went above and beyond and reached out to places for photographs in locations we wanted! She is so fun and easy to work with! Made last minute changes for us on our big day with ease and got every picture we asked for! Absolutely love working with her! She also did our engagement and family photos and ALL came out amazing! Received many compliments on her work from guests. She truly is amazing!”
