With home bases in both Rochester, Minnesota and Des Moines, Iowa, we travel all over the world, embrace an unhealthy addiction to Netflix binging, have a ridiculous love for all things Disney and dig the Lord. Whether it is we bring the love in our marriage to our team of photographers, our clients and our photography.
They are an absolute joy to work with, and the laughs did not stop the entire day. They made us feel so special from meeting for the first time to planning and especially on our wedding day. Working with them is not a one day thing and I love that they now feel like close friends that I still talk to, even a year after our wedding.

Services
Some photographers put more effort into their own image than creating images for you. We provide timeless authentic and emotive photography for people who realize that every relationship is one-of-a-kind and that each stage in time should be remembered. If this sounds like what you're looking for, contact us.
Seniors are unique, why shouldn't your senior photography experience be any different? When you book with us you get it all. A full service team walking every senior and parent through every step of the process, all the digital files and a print release. Add in an awesome photographer who has senior photography running through her veins, and a sense of ease knowing we have your back.
Only 30 Newborn babes grace our lenses each year and are reserved by due date, sometimes a few months out, so contact us for a custom quote today. All Baby Bundles include unlimited photographs of that little babe with a print release, our customer-favorite in-home session and our award-winning slideshow, albums and much more!
We like to showcase what makes your family.yours! Our lifestyle approach prioritizes the little princess outfit your little girl just won't take off or the goofy laugh baby boy does when Dad tickles him FAR more than traditional posing (don't worry, we'll snap a few of those too). We want to get it all!

Brides and Grooms.. These are the photographers you want to work with! I promise! I am a visual artist myself, and after many hours of looking at other wedding photographer's portfolios, I knew Scott and Jen were the best out there. I still to this day love every single photo from my wedding.
Not only are Scott and Jen talented, they are so kind and go to great extents to make everything perfect and stress free for you. They are a dream team!

Scott and the entire Midwest LifeShots team was amazing to work with. My wife and I have nothing but great things to say about them! From the amazing, down to earth, professional team they are, to their flexibility through the Covid madness, the quality of their photos, and their responsiveness to all of the crazy questions you come up with as bride and groom, I would recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer. They made our wedding days so special, and we can't wait for them to capture so many more life events in our future. Thank you Midwest LifeShots Team for being the amazing people

Scott and Jen are nothing less than amazing. They took the time to get to know us and really captured who we are as a couple for our engagement snd wedding photos. They are creative, hilarious and made us laugh the whole time we were taking photos. Totally worth the money as you they brought the expertise and professionalism to the whole experience. 1 million out of 10 I would recommend!!

Amazing. Brilliant. Easy going. Flexible. Talented. Thorough. All words that best describe Scott, Jen and our experience with Midwest LifeShots. Jen and Scott are THE ULTIMATE #dreamteam!
Their energy and passion is absolutely contagious! Which made for some of the BEST candid photos with ear-to-ear smiles!
It’s only right that I also RAVE about how collaborative Scott and Jen were with our other videographer (with whom they met him day of) and our wedding planner – making for an even more successful special day!
We look forward to working with Scott, Jen and the incredibly talented Midwest

We absolutely LOVED working with Midwest LifeShots! From the first time we met with Meredith, we knew that our wedding day would go smoothly because of this team. :) Our wedding gallery was beautiful, even more amazing than we ever dreamed! Plus, we got the gallery back in 3 DAYS! 3 DAYS! It was awesome! We looked through all of our photos and relived our day while sitting on the beach during our honeymoon. The icing on the cake, they sent us soup since I was sick right before the wedding. :) Much love for this team!!

Midwest LifeShots is simply the way to go. Scott, Jen, and the Team do everything to help make your images perfect and your day flow smoothly. We have now worked with MLSP on three different shoots and each time they have helped each of us feel comfortable and we had a ton of fun along the way. Thanks for everything! Can't wait to work with you in the future.

I don't know if there exists a photography team more awesome! You can tell they are experienced and love what they do. Easiest people ever to 'work' with! We couldn't be more pleased with our wedding photographs, and they added so many special touches throughout the whole process! They feel more like friends than wedding vendors!
