PRO TIP for all you newlyweds and soon to be newlyweds: Enjoy your weekends and your slow mornings together. Be present. Have meaningful conversations. Sip a cup of coffee and face each other. Enjoy waking up to nothing but each other. Take it slow. As newlyweds, my husband and I spent all of our downtime working on our house and by the time we finished our projects we were having babies and moving to a new house with new projects. We both regret not spending more time just being with each other before kids. Be more like these two cuties and just enjoy life Double tap if you need more slow mornings and intentionality in your life

Hey, guys! There are a lot of new faces around here - actually a little over 1k which is crazy to me! So I wanted to introduce myself and use a brand spanking new engagement photo! ⠀ ⠀ I’m Laura Finley, soon to be Demmer, and this is my fiancé Kyle and our pup #WatsonTheCavapoo. We live in a small rural town of about 1,000 people just west of Dubuque, IA. We both have a love for dairy cattle, our families and our dog, obviously ⠀ ⠀ I started this business a little over two years ago, it’s by far the thing I’m most proud of. You may ask, why Piper View Designs? Well, my grandfathers farm name was Piper View Holsteins, he was the sole person to push me into the dairy industry and gave me the passion that ultimately shaped my life; my degree, my friends, my fiancé, my career. So I thought it only fitting to name my business after him. ⠀ ⠀ I love to be behind the camera capturing couples who have that natural, calming kind of love or big beautiful bovines. Love & cattle; sounds like a good life to me ♥️⠀ ⠀ I’m working towards shooting more engagements and weddings, so if you’re in a blissful season of love like I am, let’s chat! I strive to capture all the feels of your session or day; the love, the laughter, the tears, the nuzzles, the pure joy and deliver it in one pretty package. ⠀ ⠀ If you’re here to enjoy my cattle photos or just to cheer me on thank you! I appreciate all of you and hope we can chat soon! Photo by @solasandkinphoto

Obsessing over how fluffy these flowers are!

We’re gearing up for three exciting weddings this week, stay tuned for all the BTS (if I remember ‍♀️)

A wedding gown that deserves the spotlight all to itself! #hayleypaige ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Ladies, I don't know how you do it! When I got married 14 years ago I don't remember their being the plethora of gowns/designers that there are today. I'd be so undecided, I LOVE too many styles. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ How did you decide on a gown? And who are your favorite designers? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Dress Boutique: @rhylanlangbridal Dress Designer: @misshayleypaige Venue: The Barn

Today feels like the Mondayest Monday of all. What do you do to break up the mondayness? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Smokin’ love

I live for #nomoreboringenvelopes nowadays I have a new favorite way to decorate envelopes that goes far beyond liners and printed addresses. I recently had a bride that couldn’t fit liners in the budget, she was pretty upset about it all, and honestly, I was, too. I want every bride to have their dream wedding, regardless of budget. I started to brainstorm and thought, what if we made a 7” custom stamp to match your suite, and just stamped the envelopes at random? I had never done it before, and bless my bride for taking the risk, because she was just as excited as I was. The stamp came in and it was the moment of truth. Will this actually work? Turns out, the answer is hell yes. And now this is my favorite new service to offer in leu of liners, for more than half the cost.
