Amaris & Bryan

A Beautifully Joyful Fall Wedding | Nevada, Iowa

October 11, 2025

Amaris & Bryan had just the most perfect fall weather for their October wedding. It was gorgeous! It was my first time exploring FarmPond Inn in Nevada, and it was such a treat! The property has a HUGE willow tree that was just perfect for our First Look moments and the ceremony space was set up with the most gorgeous & even lighting possible - making their ceremony portraits some of my favorite ever!

Amaris had the sweetest first looks with her bridespeople & her dad to kick off the day. It was so adorable to see how excited her dad was to see her all dolled up in her wedding dress! Then it was time for Bryan to see his bride and share their private vows before trekking around the pond for some beautiful couple's portraits. It was so cool to see how Amaris & Bryan incorporated their passions into their wedding day as well. Bryan's work in agriculture was on display during their ceremony, where family and loved ones joined in combining soil into a potted plant. Their love of racing was on display during the reception with their bib numbers serving as table numbers for guests. I love when couples have these creative ideas to make their day their own!

There were so many big, joyful smiles over the course of this special day, which makes my job as photographer super easy AND incredible fun. :) Congrats to the newlyweds!
