Des Moines and Charlotte Wedding Photographer and Family Photographer
"My husband and I were so impressed by Haverlee! She made our photoshoot with our week-old son a fun experience. As parents to a newborn, we were absolutely exhausted and leaned on her to guide us. Haverlee went above and beyond to capture our little family in a natural, beautiful way. She was wonderful with our son and was patient when he needed a moment to calm down. She had wonderful suggestions for us that translated into stunning photos. Our families and friends were blown away by the photos and we will cherish them forever. I would highly recommend Haverlee for any type of photo session as she is an absolute delight to work with and is truly talented with the camera!"

It’s wedding week for these two and I cannot wait. 🥹 They are so precious and tender together.
See you Saturday, Abbi & Isaiah. It’s going to be the best day of your lives. 🥂
A preview from Saturday’s wedding. Kaitlyn & Andrew in Okoboji before they both cried their eyes out during their lakeside ceremony. It was a spectacular day.

This incredibly sweet Chicago wedding is now on the gallery page of my website. Blogging is such a labor of love. It’s really rewarding to reflect back on work when it isn’t so fresh. I asked Ally a few questions about her day and this was so special to hear:
“We were so incredibly happy with how everything turned out, and a huge part of that was working with Haverlee. She was such a calming, steady presence throughout the day and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Even though we took photos in busy downtown spots like the Wrigley Building, she captured stunning, intimate shots. We are so grateful to have those photos—they really let us relive the joy of that day!”
We won’t ever forget this day with these two. And not just because of the food at @formentoschi 😮💨🤤

When I first met Bailey, she told me she didn’t want her wedding day to revolve around the photos. She wants her and her fiancé to have a genuinely wonderful day and for me to document it. Say less. ✨
I cannot wait for their laid back wedding day without any fanfare or fuss. Those are my favorite kind.
I received the sweetest review from Holli & Sam and naturally I had to go back through the archives. If there’s one thing about me, it’s that I’m almost as sappy about your old photos as you are. 🥺 I adore this little fam. Cannot wait to add another album to their gallery!
