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

It blows my mind that these two lovebirds were among some of my first weddings in my photography career! Now, 40 weddings later and they have two handsome little dudes that I have the honor of watching grow and move. And boy, when I say “move”, I really mean it! Isaac is super-fly fast and loves to run. Bless John’s heart-he didn’t know he’d get such a work out chasing Isaac down to help us capture some sweet moments. #dadclientsforthewin

We did a few family photos, broke it down to individuals of each boy, a few of just Carrie & John, then brought it back together for a few last family shots before Isaac was all done! 

Carrie + John: Thank you so much for coming back again and again! It truly is the best compliment I can receive that a client (friend) returns to be “shot” on a regular basis. John, thank you for all the laps you ran for the good of the session!! Carrie, thank you for all your outfit coordinating, logistical scheduling and knitting Ronan’s adorable sweater! 

I’m in awe, 

Carrie
