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

Yes, yes, I know that this is primarily a High School Senior blog and website. But when a former wedding client has Rainbow Babies (yes, plural, they had twins!), and you invite your newborn swaddler professional friend to join you, I have to share these images!

Jen & Jacob got married in 2018, and I am so thankful for them and for my good industry friend, Sarah of Blue Ivy Photo who has extensive newborn training and when you’re photographing twins, you really need two photogs on hand. I’m going to get out of the way and just show you the magic we created! Sarah’s images are the first gallery scroll where I was assisting and she was clicking. The second gallery is the reverse. 🙂

The first portion of the session flew by in 3 hours and 1 feeding. The second portion zipped even faster in 1 hour and the boys were ready for their 1:30pm feeding at 1:00 because we had worked with them so much. They did SO SO well!! I was in awe of Sarah’s patience and baby-whispering abilities!

Jen + Jacob: I am in awe of how calm you both are and how clear of mind you both were when I know you’re incredibly sleep deprived. I’m so proud of you both and excited to watch these miracles grow up with you as parents! Well done you two!

Blessings (& sleep!),

Carrie
