Liv Frueh Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Dana, IA

Hello my name is Olivia Frueh. I am a formally educated photographer who loves to capture your memorable milestones! I have found a love for my light and airy look that provides a more natural tone to my images.

If we could rate Liv 100/5 we would!! We were so happy with the photos Liv took for our engagement shoot & on our wedding day. Neither ourselves or many of those in our wedding are very comfortable in front of the camera, but Liv's outgoing and bubbly personality, professionalism, and pure skill calmed everyone & made the photos come out STUNNING! We appreciate how Liv was able to navigate some of the stressful moments on our day and swiftly pivot when the weather/lighting wasn't coordinating. In a friendly manner, she was effectively able to round up guests, family, and the bridal party for photos to keep our timeline running smoothly. Prior to the wedding, Liv was very communicative with us and worked with us to understand timelines, vendors, family dynamics and more! She went above and beyond to answer all of our questions and make us feel comforted. All of our family and guests were very impressed with her work. I loved her style of photos they were very bright, natural, and clean. We will simply be insisting all of our friends to use her as their photographer in the future!

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing Katie was one of the easiest and best decisions we made for our wedding. Two of my family members had already worked with her, so we knew we were in good hands, but she still exceeded every expectation. Her communication was always timely, she was incredibly easy to work with, and every second shooter she partners with is just as wonderful and professional. She made such an important part of our day feel effortless. I would book her again and again without hesitation. And, just in our previews we already know we have beautiful pictures to always remember the day.

I met Edgar, the owner of Anchor Studios several years ago when we both lived in Houston, TX. We met because I had just finished my degree and was looking for a photographer - he actually took my graduation photos! When it finally came time to book our wedding photography, I knew I wanted to go with him - no questions. His communication style is open and easy. He is responsive to all questions and requests which made the planning process a breeze. The quality of his work is truly top-notch, with beautifully curated photos that captured all the special moments of our wedding day. He is incredibly accommodating and guided us through every step of the way. He didn't hesitate when I even asked him to travel out to California for the wedding. It was awesome to have someone who is like an old friend and has seen us grow over the years capture our special day. Edgar, Anchor Studios Photography, was the perfect addition to our wedding day, and we couldn't be happier with the memories they've preserved for us.

Our wedding felt like it went by in five minutes, I swear. I was worried I’d forget so much, but the photos and video bring it all back every time I look at them. They captured moments I didn’t even notice were happening. My husband laughing with his friends, my mom tearing up, the flower girl dancing like crazy. The pictures are gorgeous but what really got me was the video. The way they pieced it together with the music was just unreal. It felt like watching a movie but it was OUR movie. I couldn’t believe how natural we all looked, nothing staged or fake. Even the shots of us walking around outside look like something from a magazine. This is honestly the best gift we’ll ever have from our wedding.

I feel so lucky to have found these amazing people! Heather and her incredible team feel like family to us, even though we only met a few months ago. They really care about their clients and want them to have the best photos possible. During the wedding, Heather would always make sure I was comfortable by giving me flattering poses and pointing her portable fan at me when I was too hot from dancing at the reception, ha! She stayed in communication with me, the other vendors, and her own team flawlessly, so I didn't have to worry about a thing. Not only was everything organized and efficient, but it was also fun! Our whole wedding party had a great time making jokes and messing around with the photographers, and seeing them have fun made the whole vibe a lot better. They hyped us up in every pose and made the day nothing but positive. I would highly recommend Heather and her team to anyone who wants a photographer who cares about them! I felt like a million bucks on my wedding day, and I have to say it is mainly because of these incredible photographers. Finally, the results speak for themselves! The pictures we received literally look like they're out of a movie. Their talent is unmatched and should be talked about more. The feelings and emotions of our special day were captured in such a natural and beautiful way. I am so grateful to have these pictures for life, and I can't wait to show my kids one day. I will never be able to forget what it felt like, thanks to these incredible people with unreal talent. I also cannot believe how easy it was to book her and for such a reasonable price! Booking Heather and her team was truly the best decision we could have made. I recommend them to anyone from all walks of life. You will be welcomed and taken care of like a friend or even family!

The candid photos are my favorite because they show genuine emotions. The video made me bawl my eyes out it felt like I was right back in that moment walking down the aisle. They were punctual, easy to talk to, and worked seamlessly with everyone else at the wedding. They even got along great with our very large, loud families which is saying something. Everything was delivered on time, and the quality is unmatched. I’m so glad we went with them.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Awarded Best of Zola
Mae was an absolute pleasure to work with. I knew I liked her from the very first call. She was thorough and asked good questions to make sure she could capture what we wanted. I love the vintage-inspired look of the photos and video. She communicated when she said she would and I always received a quick response to any questions or messages I had. On the wedding day, I couldn’t imagine anyone who would make it as special as Mae did. She was more than a photographer- she helped me put on myself shoes, hyped up all the little details I stressed months over, and was just such a joy. I cannot recommend Mae enough. I loved all the photos and the video made me cry. Mae is the type of person you want to be friends with after everything is done. Trust me, book Mae!!

I cannot express how amazing Angela was. She has not only a super warm personality. But also an amazing work ethic. I got the package for two photographers and they were both phenomenal. While I was getting ready(we are running about 30 minutes late) she was out taking photos of the venue, the lay flat photos, and the other details pictures. She even held onto our rings for me because the bridal suite was a wreck and I didn’t wanna lose them. All in all my experience with her was a 12/10 experience. She was one of the people who made my wedding less stressful!

With over a decade of experience in the wedding industry, and well over 150 weddings photographed, it still surprises me how my love for this industry grows each year. This work is not about me, it's about the individuals in front of my lens. I can’t tell an honest story if I’m constantly interfering, directing, and manipulating moments. I want your photos to render cherished memories from your day with your people, not memories of your photographer. I’m there to tell the beautiful and imperfect story as it unfolds.

When we first got engaged, Haverlee Photography was a no brainer, and she lived up to everything and more. Every picture from our engagement session, rehearsal dinner, and wedding day is stunning and I have the hardest time picking my favorites. Hands down, best decision on wedding vendors was picking Haverlee. On top of delivering beautiful photos we will cherish forever, Haverlee made everything so fun and easy. My husband said our engagement session was like a date night, and Haverlee had me feel so at ease and beautiful through every step of our wedding day. She is the kindest human who gets the perfect shots of all the small moments, which truly matter to us and feel like us. Haverlee will always be our go to photographer for all the special moments for our family, and you can't go wrong with choosing her to be a part of your special day.
