Reldon’s Lens

Reldon's Lens is a wedding photography business in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. It describes itself as queer-friendly and offers an inclusive, safe space for couples who want event photography for their wedding day.

Community and values

The business is LGBTQ+-owned, and its founder started it to support the community. A portion of each booking goes to the Iowa Trans Mutual Aid Fund, so your wedding also gives back to trans people in the state. That detail tells you a good deal about the priorities behind the camera.

The event package

• An initial consultation to confirm the fit
• An optional engagement session
• Personalized timeline creation
• Full-day coverage of your wedding
• A complete edited digital gallery within six weeks
• Custom packages for couples who need more flexibility

Using the consultation

Treat the first meeting as a two-way interview. Ask about experience photographing weddings of different kinds, and tell the photographer anything that affects your comfort, such as names, pronouns or relatives who may need careful handling. A personalized timeline helps because it puts your priorities on paper before the day.

If you add an engagement session, use it to practice. Wear something comfortable and choose a place that feels like yours. The six-week delivery window is a useful benchmark, so ask what happens during busy season.
