Anniversary Celebrations in Grimes: photography & video
A 25th, 40th or 50th anniversary is often the first time in years that a couple's whole family is in the same room, sometimes with three or four generations together. MacroSnaps photographers and videographers cover anniversary parties and vow renewals with that in mind: the couple themselves, the speeches from children and grandchildren, and the family portraits that may not happen again for a long time.
Grimes is a community in Iowa, home to roughly 11,000 people. We cover anniversary celebration events in banquet halls, hotels, places of worship, restaurants and private homes throughout Grimes and nearby Johnston and Urbandale.
We keep the coverage calm and unhurried, which suits couples who would rather not be directed for long. A short portrait session with the couple, organized group photos with each branch of the family, and candid photos throughout the event are usually enough. If you're renewing vows, we'll cover the ceremony itself, the exchange of rings and the first dance as a married couple again.
For a typical anniversary celebration, clients in Grimes book about 3 hours of photography ($450) and 3 hours of videography ($700). Photography is $250 for the first hour and $100 for each additional hour; videography is $300 for the first hour and $200 for each additional hour, with a 2-hour minimum. The first-hour price includes travel, so Grimes costs the same as anywhere else we work, and there are no quotes to wait for.

Planning tips
Planning your coverage in Grimes
Prepare a group-photo list
Large families have many combinations. Write them down in order and name a family member to help gather people, and group photos take minutes rather than an hour.
Book 2 to 4 hours
A dinner party with toasts is usually well covered in 2 to 3 hours. Add an hour for a vow renewal ceremony or a longer evening with dancing.
Keep it comfortable for the couple
Plan the couple's portraits early, when they're fresh, and in a spot where they can sit if they prefer. Good window light makes a noticeable difference.
Record the speeches on video
Toasts from children and grandchildren are worth recording with sound. A videographer can also capture interviews with guests sharing memories of the couple.
