Caitlyn’s mom emailed me after hearing about my photography work from another friend in the Des Moines area. She asked if I did senior photos, which I love, so of course we met for coffee at Smokey Row to chat. I learned that Caitlyn is a talented dancer, enjoys the outdoors, pastels, her new puppy Luna, and art. In fact, she designed the website and logo of Panka Restaurant, and hopes to study graphic design in college! SO cool. Caitlyn definitely exceeds any outstanding talents I had going in to senior year. She’ll be finishing up school at Waukee High before going on to university, and I’m excited to see what amazing creative pieces she bings in to the world, moving forward!

We started off Caitlyn’s senior photos in a lovely park area, with lots of room to play. :)

Caitlyn, you’re a rockstar!! Look at her model!

And finally, a few dramatic dance + smoke bomb photos to end the night!

Caitlyn, I’m so thankful we got to meet! Thanks for letting me work with you and adventure all over town. I can’t wait to see where you go in life, and I’ll be cheering you on the full way!
