My time as a high school teacher taught me how to instantly connect with teens and make them feel comfortable in front of the camera. I love photographing high school seniors all over the Greater Des Moines Metro and Midwest (yes, I’m willing to travel). 

Hi, I'm Carrie

Everyone could see that Cindy & Greg belonged together, not just because they had the same majors in college, but they just matched each other. They had some kind of chemistry that made others see it really easily, but I won’t ever forget the conversations Cindy and I had about Greg while they played that game of “Will he or won’t he ask me out?” “Does she like me enough to say yes to a date?”. Thankfully, it wasn’t long before they jumped from mere dates to “I do” and God has richly blessed their family: building it from two to three. And the little squirt that made them Three is now a whopping ONE.

Enough of numbers, it’s as if Abigail is waving to say, “Come on over!”

Within the first 10 minutes of our time together, Abigail had given me enough smiles that I could’ve been done right then. But when your subject is so cabbage-patch-doll cute, why stop there?

 Curls!

 LOVE this one:

This was about as “serious” as she got the entire time:

While we brought Cindy & Greg in for family photos, you have to have some silliness with a one-year-old too….

 Cindy + Greg + Abigail — It’s been a pleasure and a privilege to photograph your family from engagement to wedding and now your adorable Babe. She truly is a blessing and a ray of sunshine in every interaction she has with those around her. It is so fun to play with her, a little

person

, with quite the personality, and my camera. Heck, if you ever need a babysitter, it’d be fun to sit and play with her-no camera necessary. 🙂

Blessings and love to you three,

Carrie
