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

My “babies” are all growing up! Zach is one of the first classes of 6th graders that I taught at Norwalk in the band department and now, he’s graduating! *sniffle* Some crazy facts that I didn’t know about him before his session include: taking a trip to New York, being in Spanish class at Norwalk HS, but also taking Chinese from Rosetta. When asked a question in Spanish class, he actually answered it correctly, but in Chinese. #whoops! I don’t know many (if any) people who can do that!

Without any further adieu, we headed to Raccoon River area for the start of his senior photos:

Despite a fundraising 5K going on in our midst, we were able to eek out a few at the docks without getting neon green shirts in the background! Oh, the things we juggle/navigate….

Off to Valley Junction area for a variety of backdrops…

Zach: You were a rockstar, man! (Both on trombone and in front of the camera. 😉 ) Thank you so much for trusting me with this part of your senior year and I hope it didn’t disappoint. Mis mejores deseos en su último año!!

Blessings, (or 祝福) 

Mrs. Krupke
