Blackcap Photography

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Carnarvon, IA

I am lucky; I get to do what I love for a living, have a ton of fun doing it, and meet a lot of great people along the way. It's a bonus that I get to also travel a lot for it as well. I hope to always bring that enthusiasm and fun to every wedding as well. I tell myself before every wedding to treat it like it was my very first. I do only weddings, and I only do 30 per year. This lets me focus on my couples and their weddings, and to tell their stories completely. Over 400 weddings spanning 12+ years. And I have never missed a one. Not even late. I may not take myself too seriously, but I take my commitment to my couple seriously.

All of his positive attributes made it a simple decision to utilize his talents for our family photos. We unequivocally support Cody and are confident he will capture your special moments.

  • Serves Carnarvon, IA

Storyteller Collective Photo Co., proudly located in Ames and serving the vibrant community of Des Moines, Iowa, and beyond. I began this company many moons ago with a solid purpose - to make people feel something and to evoke genuine emotions through my photography. My passion lies in documenting individuals as they live their best lives, immersed in the activities and passions that fuel their souls. As a non-traditional photographer, I thrive on capturing authentic memories rather than elaborate setups. It's about freezing moments in time that speak volumes and resonate deeply with those who experience them.

Awarded Best of Zola
I have worked with Storyteller Collective as a second photographer (wedding), and she is so relaxed and also efficient. She works with a sense of urgency but doesn't rush her clients. She knows her stuff when it comes to weddings and knows exactly how to arrange the day so that it serves her client. She's also very, very good at adapting when things change (like when it rains on an outdoor ceremony) and reassuring her clients that we've still got it covered. She is a really good person who is fun to work with. She produces high quality work on the regular and her work is so beautiful!

Tyler Preston is the real deal. Professional, responsive, punctual and a gem to work with. And then there’s his performance, which was absolutely spot on.

Tyler is among the best of them. Book him and you’re sure to have a worry-free, high-energy experience.

I’m a central Iowa based wedding and portrait photographer on a mission to capture joyful personalities and the moments where you can’t stop smiling. I love rural Iowa, dessert for breakfast, outdoor adventures, and I’m a total homebody. My approach to photography is simple. I strive to create memories that are true to life. If you’re looking for authenticity with a dash of small town USA, I think we’re going to be great friends.

Awarded Best of Zola
As a fellow vendor working beside Katie (me on video, her on photo) on someone's big day, she is all you could ask for when working in conjunction with someone on a wedding day. She was friendly and completely respectful of the work I needed to do, even though we had to work at the same time and in the same spaces. She was open to communicating about our needs and overall contributed positivity to the process. Photo and Video do not always team up effortlessly and thankfully Katie made it easy to do so! As someone who got to watch Katie at work, she really made an effort to make sure her shots were going to be beautiful (moving things around, finding the right lighting, etc). She was also so supportive and really hyped the couple up throughout the whole day, not only making them comfortable, but confident. I 100% enjoyed working with Katie and hope to do so again!

Our favorite people to work with believe in giving back to their communities, that black lives always matter, that climate change is you know...real, and choose to embrace their own unique quirks and talents.

Awarded Best of Zola
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

If I could give Chris more than 5 stars, I WOULD! He did such an amazing job at our wedding! Not only was he professional and punctual, but he went above and beyond! Helped me stay calm when we hit a couple bumps along the way, brought me water after the ceremony (I hadn’t realized I hadn’t drank any for awhile), made sure I had drinks throughout the night, but also made sure I ate before attending to my guests! He helped me take care of myself in the midst of the chaos! My husband and I read our vows privately before the ceremony and Chris already sent that over and I have cried so many times watching it already because he captured the moment perfectly! I can’t wait to see the rest of the footage! 10000/10 would recommend Chris for your wedding videographer!

Hi! I'm Amber! I am a Creative Project Manager and Wedding Pro. I'm from St. Louis, MO and I have been working with couples across the state of Iowa for 3 years. I believe that every bride deserves to enjoy the wedding planning journey without stress or worry. If you are considering hiring a Wedding Planner, I would love to meet you and work with you.

Amber was spectacular, hands down. We hired her for her planning services as well as day of coordination. Our wedding was DIY in many regards. We met frequently throughout the year leading up to our wedding and she made sure nothing was forgotten. She introduced us to our bartender and the person who we rented sound equipment as well as her assistant Allison, all of whom were excellent. She worked well with our family members who were also involved in planning. Our rehearsal the night before the wedding itself went off without a single hitch. She truly seemed to care about us and our day. I’d recommend her a hundred times over to anyone!

I absolutely enjoy what I do, I've been providing solid high quality entertainment to couples all over the state of Iowa for almost 40 years! I started my DJ career in 1984 in Davenport Iowa, at that time I was using two turntables and had to haul big heavy crates of LPs with me. Now I use 2 specifically dedicated laptop computers that hold nearly 100,000 songs, wow isn't technology great!

I highly recommend Sean! He did a great job of working with our pastor, guests, other vendors and wedding coordinator. In addition to providing the music, he was in charge of keeping the night moving forward and our wedding on schedule. I truly appreciated his thoroughness and his professionalism. He was a big part of making our day the success that it was. One of my favorite compliments that we received from our guests was, "I've been to a lot of weddings in my day and yours had the best music selection, hands down."

Elevate your event experience. I provide premium sound system, dance floor lighting, tube lighting, full room dynamic up lighting, live DJ mixing, and emceeing, to any event you are imagining. I try to help any potential client gain a better perspective on the importance of not only hiring someone to play a role as a "DJ" - (aka someone who simply plays music) but also having that same person actively assist with the flow of the event and truly becoming integrated within your event. If you feel like we would be a great fit, I'd love the opportunity to chat!

Davin was INCREDIBLE! He was an incredible communicator, extremely organized, was on top of everything before our wedding day and during, and was incredibly talented. He played music that we requested as well as adding songs that matched the vibe. I really liked that he was actually DJing too. It wasn’t just like a Spotify playlist playing. I don’t know the right words to use but he used remixes and added beats to songs that would normally be difficult to dance to. My now husband and I didn’t want to leave the dance floor. There were plenty of times when we wanted a break from dancing physically but then another great song would come on so we just ended up staying on the dance floor. I even heard guests say they were getting some fresh air for a second and then the song would change and they changed their minds too and kept dancing. Honestly you couldn’t ask for a better DJ for your event. Such a talented and great guy!
