Hello

Jacayla & Clayton

A Rural Iowa Spring Engagement Shoot

Engaged

Their friends set them up because friends always know what’s best for you. Is that how the saying goes? Well, in this case anyway, they turned out to be spot on.

Engaged

They met at work, but really got to know each other during the pandemic. Their first date was in May 2021. “I was nervous because, even though we had been talking to each other more and hanging out together at work, I’m not a super open person. It can take a while for me to […]
