Passionate wedding photographers based out of Des Moines, Iowa. Come on in!
Last week I made an impromptu trip to Fort Worth, Texas for a much needed visit with family. After a 13 hour car ride Cousin’s Barbecue is one of our first stops. Cousin’s has been a family favorite since it opened in 1983. My grandparent’s 60th wedding anniversary was even held there. Not only does Cousin’s hold wonderful memories for us but the food is incredible. My personal favorite is the fried okra. Do yourself a favor and make sure you stop next time you’re in Fort Worth.
Des Moines is a fantastic place to live. Despite the climate I think we’ve got a great city to call our home. We decided that during the winter months we’d try our hand at a personal project that would “show off” the Des Moines we know and love. The goal was to approach local businesses we frequent and shoot the place up. Not just simple snapshots but really try our hardest to encapsulate what makes these places unique and such a good find. We’ve been on a restaurant theme lately. Azalea, Fong’s and Centro were just recently photographed and we’ve got a list of gift shops and stores yet to cover. After it is all said and done we’re creating a personal album of “Des Moines” just for us. A good keepsake to remember all the great times we’ve had at these places.
I want to thank Mike Hutchison, Gwen Page, Chris Diebel and George Formaro for allowing us in to photograph these deliciously great places. We’ve got some wonderful stuff to share soon!
Here’s a few shots from Sarah:

Faryal has made several appearances on the blog. This time I’m showing off her mad cooking skills.
This lady knows how to feed people. She’s interested in getting into a catering business and wanted me to come out and photograph some food she had prepared for a small gathering at her house. She allowed me to sample the goods after I was through photographing. IN-FREAKING-CREDIBLE! My favorite had to be the samosa’s. They are a deep fried pastry filled with potatoes and spices. Out of this world good. If you’re interested she’s willing to cook individual meals for people. Drop us a line and let us know if you’re interested and we can get you in touch with the master chef.
