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

Every year, I ask how old Lily and Nora are and every year, my jaw drops. How are these girls EIGHT?!?! What?!?! I will always remember the day Jill came to church and described the birth mom who had chosen her and Glen to be adoptive parents to twins! These girls have grown up in front of my camera and are just as dramatic in their facial expressions as ever. They are made for the stage (and I mean that as a compliment!), easily offer laughter, and brighten the lives of those around them. At the beginning of our session, we chased the sun through the trees to get that gorgeous fall glow: 

These girls’ poses crack me up! 

Glen & Jill: Thank you so much for being flexible with my schedule, the sun on your session’s morning, and moving around other folks who were trying to get in our shots! You know we love you very much and I wish we could see more of you all more often! 
Wishing you a happy and healthy holiday season! 
Carrie
