This spring wedding at Keller Brick Barn was a day for the books! Click to see more of Kayla and Michael’s wedding day.
Elizabeth knew that she would be getting braces this spring, so we scheduled her for my senior photo package that allows her to do photos in not one but TWO seasons! We took photos in March, and I never got around to blogging them… but I’m so excited to meet up with her again and take more photos this fall.
Trent and Jessica will be getting married in just under 2 months, so it was high time to get some engagement photos taken for them! I’ve known Jess for a while, and so when she emailed me that she knew the two of them would be getting engaged shortly and she wanted me to photograph them, well, how could I say no!?
Even with some rain, we had fun running from the east side of campus to the west and all ‘round the campanile. Between a mix of serious and fun photos, Doz rocked them all and it was a fast hour together. Carly stepped in for a few of them together… they’re so perfect for one another, it was easy to see that! Enjoy Doz’s graduation photos at ISU in Ames!
Brooke and Tyler made time in their busy spring schedules to fit in some engagement photos with me— I’m soooo excited to get to spend the entire day with them and their crew when they marry in just a few short weeks!! We’re going to have the best time celebrating up in Ankeny at The District Venue!!
This wedding day was absolutely lovely, from start to finish! Logan and Hailey bring out the best in each other, and their marriage started on a beautiful spring day in Norwalk, Iowa… click through to see more!
Some ideas of things to do this summer in Des Moines, Iowa!!
This day was full of sweet moments & joyful celebration after being postponed from May 2020. David and Olivia have walked through a lot of life adjustments in the past year, but I’m sure they’d say one of the best was getting married! I’m so glad we were still able to celebrate with family & friends in the luscious DSM Botanical Gardens!
Amelia is a photographer serving the Central Iowa region. She primarily photographs people in a documentary style, but also serves as a headshot photographer for all your business needs!
Zoe’s senior photos took place on a humid Iowa evening, but you wouldn’t even know how hot it was outside by her calm smiles! She graduates this year from Valley High School in West Des Moines, and will be on to new adventures this fall at university. Enjoy a few favorites from my time with this sweet dancer!
Diana booked a session with me to celebrate her relationship with her grandmother, and in memory of her grandfather, who they lost too soon last year.
Just my best friend modeling in the Arizona desert… nothing better!
What could be better than celebrating graduating from Vet Med school (with honors!!) at Iowa State, than by a grad photo session!? I can’t think of anything. Monique and I snapped some great photos for her to show off to family and friends… see more in the blog post!
Ada and James invited me out to Boston, to take engagement photos before they marry in Iowa this summer. Ada & I’ve known each other for years, both going to Iowa State University and then living in the Ames area after college working our first “real” jobs! James & Ada met then, and now are preparing for married life. I’m so excited for them!
My time in Palm Springs!
There’s literally nothing more perfect than maternity photos in the spring! Hope blooms afresh in the flowers, nesting birds, and baby bellies alike. Enjoy this precious session with Simon and Carolina!
Words can’t describe how special this session was to me! We took these on the outskirts of Palm Springs, and the California light had me drooling. These two are pretty cute, too! ;)
Meet sweet babe Macie. She’s the cutest little one… and I loved capturing her first days at home with mom, dad and proud big sister!
Join me and take a peek into one of the most fun engagement sessions you’ve EVER seen! Abbie + Ben met me downtown Des Moines for some urban and rooftop photos. It was the perfect evening + I wish I could relive it over and over again!!
I can’t begin to tell you how much this wedding day means to me. It was a story completely unique to itself, and an honor to capture through the ups and downs. From Sierra’s first look with her dad, to the “second kiss” she and Dalton shared just after being pronounced husband + wife, to the emotional toasts given by her sister and his brother… this day will forever remain close to my heart. Enjoy this boho barn wedding at Irishman Acres in Bondurant! <3
