Rachel and Nick have been friends of mine for 10 years now!! WOW. That’s wild to realize that a decade ago, we were all freshmen in college, exploring the University of Northern Iowa and adulthood together. It’s an honor to have friends who trust you not JUST to photograph their wedding, but also their lives! My first maternity session was when they were pregnant with Ila, and living in Fort Dodge…5 years ago now. Time sure flies! Now they’re expecting a sweet rainbow baby girl, due anytime in the next month or so. I am so excited to meet her and see the blessing she is to this dear family!!

Enjoy some of my favorite photos from this indoor studio maternity session in Des Moines!
