Jason Thomas Crocker Photography | Des Moines Wedding Photographer 
Rating: 5.0 (24 reviews)
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Sheldahl, IA

Hi, I’m Jason, a Des Moines wedding photographer who travels around the globe photographing weddings. After documenting over 500 weddings, I can honestly say that no two weddings are the same! I strive for epic compositions with my photojournalistic approach to wedding photography to capture the true essence of who you are as a newly married couple. In addition to my skills as a photographer, I’ve also built my client experience to infuse more fun and less stress into your wedding day.

Jason is simply the best! We stumbled upon him after reviewing photographers in our area and it was the biggest blessing. He was super quick to respond after we inquired about availability and before we knew it he was taking our engagement photos! We made Jason aware of when we hoped to send out save the dates for our wedding and he got our photos back to us within a week of them being taken with a preview the very next day! Jason is super open to making your photos memorable so when we wanted a few photos with our pup and us celebrating with champagne, he was all in! Fast forward to the months leading up to our big day, Jason was always there with emails to make sure he was prepared and had all the details we were looking for in our photos. We have a big family so our shot list was a little long but come wedding day, Jason was firing through those photos to make sure we stayed on schedule. We were actually ahead of schedule all day long which I know is a result of his efficiency. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and we owe a lot of thanks to Jason for that. He was so personable with everyone he met and made taking photos fun! Our friends and family are still raving about Jason and we got married a little over a month ago! And can we talk about the quality of his work? They left my husband and I speechless. Jason, thank you for being you! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience or a kinder soul. We can’t wait to recommend you to all our friends and family and to have you capture our lives in the years to come! Love, the Barnes

I am a Bridal Hair Stylist based out of West Des Moines! Styling hair is my passion along with everything that comes with being a Bridal Hairstylist. The busy mornings, laughter among friends/family, traveling to different venues- I love it all!

Awarded Best of Zola
Marissa did an absolutely phenomenal job styling my hair for my wedding day! She work on seven of us—myself, my mom, four bridesmaids, and a personal attendant—and every single style turned out beautifully. She was incredibly efficient without sacrificing quality, and she handled a wide range of hair types and textures (short, long, curly, straight, thick, and thin) with ease. I decided to change my hairstyle just days before the wedding and sent her reference photos—she executed the new look flawlessly. My hair held up all night through photos, dancing, and everything in between. I couldn’t have asked for a better stylist to be part of my day. Highly recommend Marissa to any bride looking for someone talented, flexible, and calm under pressure!

We could not have had a better experience than we did with Tyson and Marquee Events. After our first call with him, before we had booked, we hung up the phone and knew our search was over. We could tell we were going to be in the best hands possible for both us, and our guests. Tyson made everything easy from start to finish and helped us create the dream atmosphere that we envisioned. We want to do it all over again so we can relive the dance floor. Can't recommend him (or the CO2 cannons) enough - best entertainment in DSM, no questions asked.

Haverlee Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (13 reviews)
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Sheldahl, 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
There is no one in the world who does it like Haverlee. Haverlee was my family photographer growing up, she did my Mom’s maternity photos, she did my senior photos, and now my wedding photos. There is something really special about receiving photos that bring you back to moments you don’t want to forget, and that’s exactly what she captures- every single time. I’m thankful for the ways she doesn’t create staged photos, but captures genuine moments. I couldn’t recommend a photographer more than her, and am absolutely convinced I won’t ever go with another photographer!

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.

  • Photographer

✨WHY✨ I’m a professional photographer is because I believe that your life has PURPOSE. and a story to be captured & remembered. Life is short, and memories fade… but a photo can last for lifetimes. So, let’s hang out and eat pizza on rooftops or dance on a country road in the headlights! I want to help you make & capture memories of your unique & beautiful life, and slow down for a few minutes to enjoy the moments we're living in NOW! When I'm not working, I love a good book, chasing sunsets on beaches, skiing in the mountains, or watching Parks & Rec for the 8th time!

Amelia was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, her communication was easy, detailed, and incredibly helpful. She took the time to get to know my husband and I on a personal level, which made the photography experience feel so special and intimate. Amelia had a wonderful way of putting all of our guests at ease in front of the camera, capturing beautiful, natural moments throughout the day. The final photos were truly stunning - personal, artistic, and full of the love and joy we felt on our wedding day. We couldn't be happier with the exceptional service and incredible value from Amelia. She played such an important role in making our wedding day so unforgettable.

I’m Colby (he/him), your local neighborhood dog parent/beer lover/former mascot/barbershop singer/wedding and elopement photographer. My love language is shouting compliments at you. 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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Colby photographed a wedding I was in in 2017 and I knew he’d photograph my wedding. This was before I’d even met my now-husband. That’s how good he is. Colby is phenomenal. 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.

Corah made it so effortless for us, right from our first meeting where she carefully explained the process to us, our engagement shoot which she made so fun, to our wedding day shoot where she captured all our moments so thoughtfully! Our pictures reflect exactly who we are as a couple. They were romantic, elegant and a little quirky. She has amazing ideas on how to make you look good in the photos while keeping true to who you are! Our family (especially mine back in India) were raving about all our photos too. I didn’t even know she was capturing some of the moments that she did on our wedding , and I couldn’t be any more thankful! Be well-prepared to gain a friend and for those happy tears if you hire Corah!

We loved working with Christiani's VIP Catering Service for our wedding! Their communication was always fast, responsive, clear and detailed which made planning super easy. The quality and value were fantastic - the food was delicious with beautiful plating, and they offered great vegan and gluten-free options to accommodate all our guests. They were very timely in their setup and service the day-of, and we got tons of compliments from guests raving about the amazing food and service! There were so many positive remarks on their customer service as well. We would highly recommend Christiani's - they helped make our wedding day special and stress-free when it came to the food and catering.
