Haverlee Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,400
  • Serves Elkhart, 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.

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.

I’m Laura Nichole! Welcome to my little nook of the web. 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.

Hello friends! I am a photographer and graphic designer based out of Des Moines, Iowa. I have been shooting since I was 16 years old.

Kay Eileen Photography

  • Serves Elkhart, IA

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.

When we were planning our wedding, searching for a photographer took us a long time because we didn’t just want to pick anyone. My husband finally came across Kayla and we instantly fell in love with her style. Me and Kayla had a FaceTime call to chat and get to know each other and I instantly knew she was going to be our photographer aside from how good her photos were! She is so professional, friendly, funny and super personable. She not only is our photographer for life but I can also say she has become one of my very good friends! I highly highly recommend her! Her photos are beautiful and she makes you feel so special on your big day! She goes above and beyond on your day to help you with your dress and just make sure everything runs smooth! You won’t regret it! Book a session!!!

Hello my name is Olivia Frueh. I am a formally educated photographer who loves to capture your memorable milestones! I have found a love for my light and airy look that provides a more natural tone to my images.

Liv is amazing! There is no other way to put it. Having her as our wedding photographer might be the best decision we made for our wedding. On the way home from our wedding I told my husband that we would be going to where ever Liv is to get any photography we need for the rest of our lives. Not only did we love every second with her but our family and friends have continued to tell us how friendly, professional, and just great at her job she is. At the end of the day we also ended up with a gallery with amazing pictures. The only bad thing is that we can’t pick which ones are our favorites! Don’t miss out on your opportunity to hire Liv, you truly will not regret it!
