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

The matriarch of this family is a pretty special lady to our family. Dawn has taught our two oldest through their Kindergarten year and unfortunately, she won’t get to teach Lottie because Lochlyn was her last class before retiring! When her older daughter, Hannah, contacted me to gift Dawn with a photo shoot for her birthday, I jumped up excitedly with a resounding “yes”!

We had a location in mind, but Dawn and Steve found some spots in the Easter Lake area that worked out beautifully and the whole family descended to make it happen:

After getting the whole family taken care of, we started doing smaller groupings as long as Baby Ava would tolerate it!

Hannah had a lot of fun at Hobby Lobby and brought all that we needed to highlight the season and Ms. Ava! 🙂

Hannah & Dawn,

We are so thankful for your family and are so glad Lottie and Ava get to be together in their nursery room every day! What fun to get to continue our connection with the flexibility that retirement affords.
What a blessing you are,

Carrie
