A bit slower, a lot more real.

Some wedding photos feel like a staged production. I’m far more interested in the real life that is actually happening.

I shoot a mix of 35mm film and digital, heavily shaped by my Iowa roots - early mornings on the front porch, running dogs, beat-up leather blundstones, antique knick knacks, and open land. I don't care for forced poses or rigid timelines. I'm here to document your real wedding, capturing Genuine memories and honest energy so your photos feel like worth passing down for generations

Hey, i'm gracelin 

An Iowa girl with a heart for travel who loves dogs, antique hunting, film aesthetics, and good energy. When I don't have a camera in hand, you'll find me outside, scouting old farmhouses, or planning my next trip.

WEDDINGS

Although I primarily shoot weddings, I do have a love for capturing life's little moments: whether that be couples' photos of college sweethearts, or your newborn's first weeks at home. Lifestyle sessions are beautiful, candid, and so fond to look back on!

She is outstanding behind the camera and will go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable during your shoot. She is always up for new ideas - her creativity, innovation, and positivity will shine through in her photos. She is very timely, transparent, and has an amazing personality! Would recommend 10/10!"
