Awarded Best of Zola
Peridot and Lace did the photography for our wedding and we could not be happier with how they turned out! They captured the most important parts of our day so we are able to look back and relive that day for many years. Not only did they capture the moments but the communication was excellent. If I had a question they responded very promptly which I really appreciated. I also appreciated their time management, they showed up on time to make sure they captured everything. We received our pictures back very quickly and they went above and beyond and sent us very nice wooden box with some pictures printed and all the raw photos on a flash drive. I would strongly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a quality photographer. We will be using them in the future for all our photography needs!

Haley Electra Photography

  • Serves Monroe, IA

I’m a wedding photographer in Des Moines, Iowa. I want to help document your happily ever after. When I’m not shooting weddings, I enjoy spending time with friends, writing, and reading good books. Weddings hold a special place in my heart, and I would love to help document your special moments.

Haley Electra Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From our very first interaction, Haley and her team were clear, encouraging, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. They were so hard-working, willing to go the extra mile, and their final work was simply amazing. Haley was incredibly flexible, making sure we got every shot we wanted, and having a second photographer there made the getting ready portion of the day super easy and smooth. Haley and her team are not only incredibly talented, but also super sweet and a joy to be around. We could not recommend Haley Electra Photography more highly for any couple looking for wedding photography that will capture all the special moments of their big day.

I love what I do! Photography has been a part of my life since I was a child and it's my work, my hobby, my passion, my life! I serve Iowa and the Midwest, and anywhere else life takes me! I have photographed weddings in Colorado, the Carolinas, Florida, Texas, Mississippi and Utah.

Awarded Best of Zola
We originally booked Rachel to take our engagement photos as we were to be married in Hawaii. The pandemic had other plans, so we shifted the wedding back to Iowa. Rachel bent over backwards for us and was able to be at the wedding and she took the most beautiful photographs. She is kind, funny, and makes you feel instantly relaxed- which results in some killer candid photos!. I can’t say enough good things about her!!

Hi there, I'm Kirby! For those of you wondering, yes-Kirby is my real name. I'm SO excited that you have come to my page! I am a photographer serving the Des Moines, Eastern Iowa Area and beyond. In my free time you can catch me trying to keep up with my little man Eli and my husband Isaac. I love jamming out to all different kinds of music (ranging from good ol' Disney singalongs to some 90's classics), working out at home, and playing/watching sports (Go Panthers!). I often daydream about Oreos and milk, donuts and ice cream (or anything S'mores).

Awarded Best of Zola
Kirby was amazing to work with right off the bat! Her wedding package includes an engagement session and day of wedding coverage. However, she went above and beyond with help planning out the shooting timeline day of and all the logistics for wedding day. I can not recommend her more!

Susan Manning Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Monroe, IA

Photography has always been my happy place - I started shooting professionally after graduating college in 2017. Posing is necessary for some shots, however, I want to capture you being you. Let's have some fun together! I believe the best shots are the ones where you are feeling comfortable and being yourself. My personal assistant is my puppy, Theo. He loves to spend the day cuddled up under my desk while I'm editing. When I'm not shooting or editing sessions you can find me drinking ridiculous amounts of coffee, running with my pup or spending time with my loved ones.

We absolutely loved working with Susan for our engagement and wedding photos! She made both of us feel so comfortable from the start (no easy feat for my now-husband in front of the camera!) We got married during an ice/sleet storm, and she really helped keep me calm when I realized that my vision of wedding photos outside were going to be a no-go. I can't tell you how many compliments I still get about all of our photos, over a year after our wedding. Highly recommend booking her for your big day -- but do it fast! I have a feeling her calendar will only start to book up more and more as people discover her and her incredible talent :)

They captured all the candid moments I didn’t even notice. My husband and I are always a little awkward in photos, but they made it easy and fun. The pictures show so much personality and love.

Where do I even begin... first, Heather was absolutely phenomenal! She was able to fit us in with probably the shortest notice ever. She was also able to work with our budget. Her communication was amazing, she answered all of my questions quickly. She made us feel very comfortable! Working with her and her fiance felt like we had all been friends already, we just clicked (haha). Side note: we got to help out two poor little stray kittens with them, so animal lovers always a plus in my book! I am madly in LOVE with the photos she took, they are absolutely perfect!!!! She was able to capture our dream come true and so much more!!! They are so beautiful!!! She was even able to finish the editing earlier then planned. I already talked it over with my husband, and we plan on hiring her again in the future! A five star rating does not do her justice, she was hands down the best!!!

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.

Isaac came recommended from a friend who did their engagement and wedding photos with him. We were also fortunate to have done our proposal, engagement and wedding photos with Isaac! He is so professional and comfortable to be around. My husband and I dont usually like to take photos, because we are self conscious, but Isaac took care of us. I am so grateful we came across LoveKnot and will always highly recommend them for anyone's special occasion.
