Marque Photography by Brenda Shank

e groom to get his pictures while Brenda was with the girls. The ceremony was perfectly taken. The reception pictures try to include all of our guests. I couldn’t stop looking through the gallery to reminisce. My family has used her for senior pictures and I can bet all my siblings will want her to capture their wedding days as well. I cannot recommend her enough!!! 

with everyone and stayed through our reception to celebrate with us! Her attention to detail and overall attitude makes Brenda a fantastic photographer and a joy to have around! 🩷

eceiving wedding photos.

She’s incredibly knowledgeable and easy to trust.  The photos are absolutely perfect, and we love that she edits everything by hand rather than using AI. We couldn’t be happier.  

was very helpful with other aspects of the wedding, as well as helping the groom and crew get ready. We’re very pleased with her work and would hire her again for a second wedding if we could!

❤️❤️❤️

stunning photos we’ll cherish forever. From start to finish, she exceeded our expectations. If you’re looking for a talented and reliable wedding photographer, we highly recommend Brenda!

ator and professional but also relaxed and fun. She was responsive to our many questions as this was our first wedding. The wedding pictures were amazing, our friends and family raved about them. We highly recommend Brenda. Thanks for being part of our special day

er easy to work with and is very timely. We highly recommend Brenda for engagement and wedding photos!

ment, etc. She helped the day to run smoothly in more aspects than photography. Overall, we were very happy with the outcome of the day with Brenda and our photos!

they looked. I had asked for 2 photographers for our day and didn't miss a single thing. Both laughed with us and were personable. Highly recommend Brenda.

and family pictures we wanted - which we’ll forever be able to cherish now! Brenda’s energy, creative poses and editing skills are unmatched. Our photos turned out beautiful. We cannot recommend her enough, thanks again Brenda ❤️

t our photos it's like we are reliving the day all over again. We cannot thank Brenda and her team enough. Next time we need pictures we will definitely be reaching out.

n organizing large families on both sides not missing a single picture, she ensured that both my husband and I were heard. If you are looking for a wedding photographer in the Des Moines area you have to give her a call.

our photos and are so glad that we were able to have her!

mazing portraits! She creates such a fun atmosphere while keeping the day running smoothly. She is also wildly talented at capturing every moment so beautifully and is quick to think on her feet if something isn't working out quite right. We could not recommend her more!!

ache and cheer. Plus, she really took the time to "see" Nick and me when we're not the easiest to read. Not only that, she wouldn't settle for anything less than the best for us. At one point, I punted some choices off to my wedding planner because of work deadlines. Brenda could have said, "oh good, this will be easy," but instead she asked first, "Can you trust this person to want what's best for you?" I could, and so she took care of it, trusting me, too. Even when I was hard to reach, ignorant about the wedding process and what the day would be like, and confusing to talk to, she was patient, persistent, and kind. Then, like an absolute champ, she showed up as a single shooter (supported by her wonderful husband) at 6am for our 10am wedding! Brenda kept us on schedule and knew how to command a room when she needed to. Additionally, she got all our pictures back to us in less than a month, and they came on a super convenient online gallery. It has been such a joy to relive the day, and I'm so thankful for the way she captured not only us and formal photos, but also the smiles (and tears!), warm glances, and good vibes of that day. They're exactly how the day felt. Thank you Brenda!!

the timeline.

out. I thought those pictures were amazing. Then came the wedding. These pictures are even better and I can't even think of how I'm going to pick just a few for the wall! She keeps everything running smoothly and making sure you stay organized. I plan to use Brenda for pictures in the future!

! She did an amazing job! We just got our photos back and they are stunning! We have so many photos, they are all well done and I am so happy with her. She captured our day perfectly, was very professional and I am so happy with her. I can't wait to take one year anniversary photos with her in a year!

e I felt like she was there for me and to capture the best parts of our day. She was incredible from start to finish. When we got our photos back I couldn’t believe how perfect they were! I could not have asked for literally anything more. They were everything I wanted and so so much more! There cannot be a better photographer to capture your special day!

hentic my photos turned out, and her schedule’s flexibility made for such a stress free wedding day. Highly recommend.

comfortable. Brenda is amazing at finding the right angles and poses to show of the couple, and was willing to try out new locations for the engagement photos. The wedding photos came out absolutely gorgeous, and she did an amazing job at balancing a large amount of family photos and still fantastic candids and in the moment photos as well. Both her and her assistant helped the day run smoothly, and she was a great peace of mind the entire time. I would highly recommend Brenda’s work to any one (she actually photographed a friend’s wedding as well - we didn’t even know until we ran into her at the wedding!). Highly recommend her services to anyone

ay taking pictures! I'd highly recommend Brenda!

nting the day to be focused on us as the couple and I felt that the whole day. She doesn’t have a time limit worked into her rate which was one of the highlights about her when looking for wedding photographers along with her photo style. We were able to capture all the photos on our list plus many family photos that were wanted by our mothers which was great! She also captured several of our guests and the fun that was had. Love my final product and it was so worth the wait ❤️

th us during the months leading up to the wedding to make sure everything was still perfect for us. The wedding day with Brenda was amazing… It felt like she was a close family member and I loved that aspect! She is intelligent when it comes to ideas, poses, lighting and what is going to really make every photo special and beautiful. I HIGHLY recommend her as she is truly the best. Thank you, Brenda ❤️

pictures, while also knowing she accepts nothing but the best quality and I can trust her creative eye. I highly recommend Brenda for any of your special events!

years. She has a bubbly personality so she makes everyone feel comfortable and makes picture taking fun! We had unexpected rain that day but she was so creative with the indoor pictures. We've had so many compliments on the engagement and wedding pictures, all thanks to Brenda, a True Professional

t at the end of our special day. Her offered packages and experience don’t compete with anyone else. She was truly phenomenal to work with! If I could do it all over, I would choose Marque Photography by Brenda Shank over and over again!💞

reds of hours editing. I would hire her again 100 times over. She’s is the best !!!
