Ben and Elise’s wedding at Harpor’s Vineyard in New Virginia, Iowa was the perfect mix of elegance and heartfelt charm. The rolling vineyard views set a dreamy backdrop as Elise walked down the aisle in her gown from Schaffer’s Bridal, while Ben and his groomsmen looked sharp in Generation Tux. Thoughtful playlists provided by DJ by BCP Live Weddings allowed the couple to stay fully present, savoring the joy of the day. Their classic rings from Josephs Jewelers were exchanged beneath the vineyard arches, a moment filled with laughter, tears, and so much love. As their photographer, my goal was to create space for the day to unfold naturally — blending documentary candids with editorial touches — so every image feels authentically theirs. From the rehearsal dinner to the dance floor, their story is preserved in timeless, true to color imagery that reflects the warmth, connection, and vision they dreamed of.
