K+G Wedding 07.23.10 | Central Gardens, Clear Lake | Iowa Wedding Photographer

A bit over a week ago we got an e-mail from a wonderful couple from Minneapolis who were having a small wedding ceremony on Friday July 23rd at the gorgeous Central Gardens in Clear Lake, Iowa. They were unsure as to if they wanted photos of the event or not.

After chatting back and forth for several days with them they decided that they did in fact want their ceremony documented. They also wanted something rather new to us…video! We discussed the details informing them we were not by any means professional videographers but more than willing to shoot a few clips of the ceremony.

Ironically I had the day off work as Tanner’s brother was getting married the next day, so we headed off around noon to the Central Gardens in Clear Lake! Their two daughters are from India so they had several great Indian wedding traditions incorporated into the ceremony.

We truly enjoyed being a part of your wonderful day and wish you nothing but the best for years to come. Congratulations!

Des Moines Iowa Senior Photographer | ZTS Photo

We love to do the non-traditional shots at ever senior session with trying something new and unique with each senior. Whether it is a variety of fun locations that they help us pick out, or some different lighting setups, seniors are so much fun to work with and shoot! Their creativity and spirit never cease to amaze me. It is such a great time in their lives as their last year living at home before embarking on their college journey, and it’s great to enjoy it and capture them at that point in life.

Of course we end up with a plethora of traditional ‘yearbook’ and formal shots as well, but really we want our seniors to have a few fun photos that really let their personality and uniqueness shine through.

Just by chance we happened to catch a train passing by a location we were shooting with a senior Sunday night. Tanner jumped at the chance to do a fun long exposure with the train in the background so we scrambled to set up.

For the photo nerds out there:

15mm f/2.8 Fisheye
-100 ISO
-1/4 sec
-F/22
-2 580 EXII’s at 1/1 (triggered with pocket wizzard plus II’s)

Tanner spent about 2 hours editing out the shadows from us and the tripod in the photo. I will post a full Tessa senior pic preview hopefully sometime this week including some awesome cheerleading jumps, a fun sparkly formal dress, some top-hat photos, and some great volleyball shots!

Summer has been crazy busy for us lately! We had a wedding Friday in Clear Lake, went to a wedding Saturday as guests (how odd to NOT be in charge! ha!) and shot a wonderful senior session with Tessa from Forest City High School on Sunday night.

This weekend Tanner and I are headed off to Storm Lake for the Schuman/Hustedt wedding. If I know Jenn and Chad it should be a gorgeous day with one heck of a party to follow!
