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

You know you’ve “arrived” when senior guys are contacting you themselves for their senior photos. They’re that interested in having them taken and I take it as quite a compliment that they’re contacting me to do so! Ben is one such senior and I loved using our stadium in yet another different way. My brain cannot recollect photographing a soccer player senior at NHS stadium in recent memory (or blame it on what I’m calling “Corona Brain”) or maybe ever? So cheers to figuring out how to photograph soccer:

We then headed downtown and then to Gray’s Lake:

The sunlight was absolutely perfect on this evening-we have been so blessed with fantastic weather in July!

Ben: Thank you so much for having me! I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know you & your sister more during our time together. I hope you have a fantastic senior year as you debate & contemplate your future choices wherever they may land in the tech world. Who knows? I might call you up for some research & development help with my business in the future!

All the best,

Carrie
