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

I’ve had the distinct pleasure of teaching Sky both in middle school (band) & high school (photography) and I have thoroughly enjoyed watching her grow as a young adult. She is incredibly sharp in tough classes, has clear goals and achieves them all, while being an anchor for her friends-a calm, encouraging presence for both them & me! So, when she emailed me to do her senior photos, I was elated!

After highlighting her career in dance & on NHS’s Dance Team, we headed downtown where all she wanted was “stairs & architecture”. That, my dear, I can do!

Her mom & I joked throughout this session that, “Is that the sass you see at home?” “Does she give you that sassy look in the classroom?!” All in good fun Ms. Sky, all in good fun and I welcome your sass in my class any time!

We dubbed this her “Power outfit”:

Sky-It’s been a joy to watch you grow be it on show choir’s stage, the football turf dancing or in photography as you conquered tough tasks. Thank you so much for your support of my classroom/program AND my business. I am so thankful I got to teach you twice!

All the best & be well!
Carrie
