Des Moines Wedding Content Creator
Your wedding day moves quickly. Stay in Frame captures the candid, behind-the-scenes moments happening in between it all — from getting ready with your favorite people to the reactions, details, and dance-floor moments you might otherwise miss.
As your Des Moines wedding content creator, I'm there alongside your photographer and videographer, documenting your day through an editorial, social-first lens, so you can relive it all almost immediately.
THE MOMENTS YOU LIVED + THE ONES YOU MISSED
More than what made it into your camera roll.
While you're getting married, an entire wedding day is happening around you.
Your mom tearing up while you're getting ready. Your bridesmaids' reaction when they see you. Guests arriving. Your tablescape before anyone sits down. Your best friend's reaction during your vows. The energy five minutes before you walk down the aisle.
Wedding content creation is about preserving those pieces of the day in candid video — captured vertically on an iPhone/drone and delivered quickly, while everything still feels fresh.
It's not meant to replace your photographer or videographer. It's another perspective on the day you spent so much time creating.
