Isaiah Kent-schneider

MK was fabulous. Above and beyond our expectations. She was a main reason our wedding day went smoothly. She does a lot of leg work on coming up with the days schedule and helping make sure everyone knows where they need to be. Not to mention her pictures were so pretty but also cool and fun. She makes people feel comfortable and is overall great to work with. I would strongly recommend her to anyone!

So Stunning!



Oh man, where do I even begin? MK is the absolute best photographer and I am so beyond elated that she did our engagement and wedding photos!!! She is a kick ass person who absolutely rocked the hell out of my wedding Saturday! She is so much fun and brings all the good vibes out of everyone at the wedding!! We couldn't have asked for a better photographer honestly. The engagement photos we got back were so so stunning and I cannot wait to see what she captured for our wedding photos! If you are looking for a photographer, MK is it for sure!!! Working with her was a blessing on our wedding day. We love you MK and will be coming back to you without a doubt!!

The best Iowa photographer out there!

The first time I met MK was at my friend’s wedding on the dance floor. She was insanely fun and dedicated to getting natural candids and I knew right then, when my now husband and I were to get married, she was going to be our person! Fast forward to our November wedding - and oh man did she deliver. She even brought her awesome hubby to capture EXTRA angles (major happy moment for this bride). MK adds creativity, talent and genuine beauty to every image she captures. The most common compliments from friends and family included her FUN ideas, engaging personality, efficiency and eagerness to stay on track with our timeline. We were provided with EVERY single shot we had in mind and then some. When I didn’t think she could outdo herself more, you guys, this rockstar provided us with 75+ SNEAK PEAKS the day after our wedding. That is insanely uncommon. And lastly, she provided us with our entire gallery in only a months time. I continue to recommend this girl to every friend who gets married because they will be so happy and stress-free. It’s no wonder MK won major awards with her images! She’s truly a professional.

Best Photographer I’ve ever worked with

Highly recommend MK she was amazing every step of the way throughout my entire process! I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to help make our day as special as it was! We got our photos back very quick and they’re nothing short of amazing! She continued throughout the entire day making it stress free!!

Personable, flexible , and extremely fun photographer!

MK was fantastic! She was extremely fun and personable, and most importantly she was flexible. It wasn't easy getting married during a pandemic, but MK worked with us and our schedules during this crazy time. I recommend finding a photographer whom you connect with and can trust- and Everlasting Studios was certainly that for us.
