About
You want the best photos and video experience we are the group that can deliver. I have been a professional photographer for over 30 years and photograph and video everything from weddings to corporate events. I studied photography at Hawkeye Tech in Iowa and know everything there is about lighting, composition and technology. I have grown my company to over 4 photographers and we are a great team. I am extremely customer-oriented and detail oriented. My main goal is to make you happy by giving you the best photos/video possible and best experience ever. When the photographer and client work well together it makes for a overall great experience and that is what we do at Dear Hart.

Our photographer, Darin, did such a great job. He showed up on time, made everything feel easy and comfortable, and the pictures turned out so beautiful. We got them back quickly too, which was amazing. Our guests even loved his personality. We’re so happy with everything he did!

Darin did an amazing job taking my daughters pharmacy graduation photos. He was very patient and caring in making sure he got the perfect shots. We got hundreds of photos for a price that no one else can compete with. We will use him again in the future and recommend him to all of our friends.

We hired Darin for our wedding photography, and we couldn’t be happier with our decision! From start to finish, he was incredibly easy to work with. He has such a great sense of humor, which made us feel relaxed and comfortable throughout the entire day. His positive energy was infectious, and he knew exactly how to capture the special moments without feeling intrusive. The photos turned out amazing! He really has an eye for detail and made sure to get all the important shots while still making everything feel natural. Highly recommend Darin to anyone looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also fun and easy going!

Details: Bridal portrait • Traditional / classic (looking directly at the camera) • Candid (captured in the moment) • I'm flexible • Digital or online download • Flash drive • My home, venue, etc.
