Liv Frueh Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Gowrie, IA

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!

Hiring Ashley was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She’s bubbly, kind, and makes you feel like you’ve been friends forever. The day of our wedding went by so fast, but every single image she captured brings me back in an instant. She not only captured our love story, but captured our friends and family beautifully. Every silly moment, tender exchange and happy tear was published in our gallery — and for that, I am forever grateful. THANK YOU Ashley & Meredith, our wedding day was all the more special with your talent!

Haverlee Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,200
  • Serves Gowrie, IA

I’m Haverlee, (hay-verlee), solo parent of three wild things. My photography career was birthed from many years of pain. My life derailed and everything felt unstable and uncertain. The more difficult things became, the more I clung to small moments of beauty. When things felt dark, I clung to the light. And I could always find light in people and in nature. Focusing on others instead of my own dark days brought me joy every time without fail. I always knew I was creative but it took me a while to find my niche! As I ventured into photography, everything fell into place. It was as if I already knew the language, I just had to find the words.

Awarded Best of Zola
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 worked with P&L last year for a wedding in Des Moines, Iowa. I was the couple's photographer, and they handled videography, and though we only met the morning of the wedding, by the end of the day we had become such lovely friends. I have so many good things to say about their creative work (the video turned out stunning, and the rest of their portfolio is also gorgeous) and their presence (I have never had an easier time working with a videographer.) They had an uncommon knack for shifting between taking charge themselves and allowing me to direct the couple or their families, all the while exuding a sense of calm and control that put me, and I’m sure the couple, at ease. I often find that working with other vendors can be an intrusive or even combative process, where each is trying to vie to be the most important to the couple and which ultimately serves no one—the couple, me, or the vendor themselves— well. P&L are the antithesis of that. They are friendly, collaborative, and genuinely love their work, and it shows in how well they communicate and how much they dedicate themselves to the cause of documenting a couple’s big day in the best way possible.

Amelia responds to information in a timely manner, she is flexible with travel, she makes you feel comfortable while doing photos, and she does a great job editing. She runs her business with a ton of professionalism but is also genuinely interested in you and your life. I cannot give her enough praise on the work she does.

Jason is professional, friendly, and his outgoing personality makes the shoot so comfortable and enjoyable. During our wedding, he also went above and beyond by making sure to take care of us. He knows the ups and downs of a wedding, so he would make sure we were okay by reminding us to stay hydrated and to eat, he would be so great communicating the schedule for the day, and what to expect and what to do throughout the photoshoot. So grateful for his expertise and we totally recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer.

Hello hello! My name is Marie and I am the owner and photographer for Wild Elegance. We are a brand for adventurers, for lovers of life, and genuine people who love those little moments between the moments in life and seek out truth over perfection. Your marriage is unique because of the relationships you have with the people you choose to celebrate with. Spending my day with you and your closest family and friends brings me such joy, and creating art out of some of the best moments of your life is something I am truly honored to be a part of for so many.

Awarded Best of Zola
Knowing how much of a financial investment a wedding photographer was going to be, I did not take my decision lightly. I reached out to several companies and had several questions when determining who would be the right fit. And I have to say, Marie was by far the most understanding and compassionate during that process. While many photographers seemed annoyed by the (many) questions I would ask before booking, Marie was patient and very thoughtful with her responses -- she even took time to arrange a phone call with me while traveling! And during that phone call, she made sure I didn't feel rushed and that she answered all questions I had fully, it truly felt like I was talking to a friend. That was when I made the decision to book with Marie. Beyond that, when booking the session for our Engagement photos, she brought several creative and adventurous ideas to the table and had the PERFECT locations to take us to. We had a blast together. I would recommend Marie to anyone looking for a photographer who is friendly, compassionate, accommodating and just a joy to be around.

I love a good love story. There’s nothing I enjoy more than photographing the kind of love that sets the soul on fire. Or capturing the excitement that comes from saying ‘yes’ to forever with your best friend. I’m empowered by the couples who are passionate about life but don’t take it too seriously. The ones who crave adventure and aren’t afraid to blaze their own trail. Who value connection and intentional conversation while making the time and space in their relationship to grow in love and as individuals.

There are not enough words to express how grateful we are that Emilee and Dan were a part of our wedding day. When searching for vendors to work with, my goal was to find people who would support a calm, grounded, flexible wedding day. With Emilee I hit the absolute jackpot. Her and Dan took the time to get to know us, to understand our values, personality and vision to collaborate on capturing a deeply personal experience. My husband and I are not fans of stiff, posed or inorganic photos on our wedding day, but instead wanted to capture who we are and our community. Emilee's approach did exactly that. She is flexible, willing to pivot at any moment and had amazing ideas from the start of our engagement shoot. Neither my husband and I are very comfortable being photographed and she immediately put us at ease. Emilee QUICKLY sent us 30 photos from our wedding as a sneak preview of our gallery and we instantly fell in love with every single one. We had so many friends reach out to us telling us how much they loved our photos and several people asked how they could reach Emilee for their own wedding day! We cannot wait to see our whole gallery. Please book Emilee you will not be disappointed!

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 did our engagement and wedding photos, and they always turned out stunning! I had to do a lot of photographer recon before choosing, as Joe and I are both pretty pale. I noticed some photographers wash out color. I chose Laura because her style didn't do that to us, and the depth of her colors really stood out to me! Joe and I have never been publicly affectionate, and Laura respected that and gave us great prompts to make us feel comfortable. Our photos turned out amazing, and I can't wait to frame some to have around the house!
