Hi, I’m Carli! I’m the owner and lead photographer behind Cedar + Bloom, based in Washington, Iowa. I’m also a wife, mom of four, and Facebook marketplace addict. I’ve spent the last decade photographing weddings, and I still get a little emotional watching people marry their favorite person. My photographs are warm, earthy, and full of life. I love a beautiful portrait, but I’m just as drawn to your mom tearing up, your grandparents holding hands, and the laughter you couldn’t recreate if you tried. Those are the things I want you to have years from now.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Every wedding has its own rhythm. I'm inspired by the way a great film makes you feel like you're actually inside the story — the anticipation before something happens, the quiet moments between people, the movement, the atmosphere, and the unexpected frames you could never have planned. I photograph weddings with that same instinct, moving with what's already unfolding rather than forcing the day into a shot list or manufacturing moments. The images move between digital capture and authentic 35mm and medium-format film, giving each moment the rendering that suits it best — creating photographs that feel like frames from a film you happened to live inside.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Caz was VERY professional, very kind. He had a vision that aligned so so perfectly with ours. I LOVE his approach towards photos, that he captures genuine moments not posed photos. We took around an hour of actual posed photos and after that he was in the background, you would catch a glimpse of him taking photos from around the room and let me tell you WHEN I GOT OUR PHOTOS BACK I WAS SHOCKED!!! They were absolutely stunning. He was so so kind and so so amazing, at a very reasonable price. I would give him more stars if I could.”

“When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3”

I want your photographs to feel nostalgic, honest, and timeless - the kind you'll look back on years from now and immediately remember what it felt like to be there.

“We had the privilege of having Jenna as our photographer for our engagement pictures, my bridal pictures, and my wedding on 9/12/26 and I could not be happier with the choices we made! Jenna is so much more than just a photographer; she was quite literally my backbone throughout the entire wedding planning process. From our engagement and bridal sessions to the wedding day itself, her work is breathtaking, but it is her heart and dedication that truly set her apart. She has an incredible ability to dissolve stress, even handling unexpected moments like removing a huge stain from my dress as if it were nothing at all. Not to mention her excitement shows in her turn around time, after my bridal session I received sneak peaks by the next afternoon! She has such a talent for capturing every moment perfectly creating pictures we will love for a life time. She has made my wedding something I could relax and enjoy rather than being stress. She willingly helped with so many “small” things to keep my day as smooth as possible. If you want someone who will do WHATEVER is necessary to make the brides day perfect, trust me she is your girl! I mean honestly, go look at her facebook to see the AMAZING work she does!! Beyond her talent behind the lens, she stepped in to manage my entire wedding timeline and supported me in countless other ways that I can't even fully express. It is so evident how much she loves her job, not just in the stunning photos she captures, but in her positive attitude and the way she carries herself. She is a complete professional and a wonderful human being who truly deserves the world. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”

Their creative eye captured stunning images that we didn't even know we needed, and they were always there to lend a helping hand throughout the day. The quality of their work exceeded what we expected, and every photo tells a story about our wedding. We felt supported by them from start to finish, and we would absolutely recommend Lavenderie Photos to any couple looking for photographers who are organized, talented, and genuinely fun to work with.”
