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 this quiet challenge throughout this summer season of photo sessions to incorporate the graduation year subtly into photos when I see an opportunity. Be that Emma’s lap counter for her swimming events, Morgan’s Varsity letter, or Carter’s & Lydia’s golf balls. So, when Braelyn asked for “sports only” images and we had access to the Norwalk Physical Education & Competition Center, I asked AD Tobey if he could turn on the shot clocks for us and set them to a specific time. Thankfully, he was happy to oblige! Check out the fun we had in the NPECC to recognize Braelyn’s basketball career at Norwalk High School!

I’ve brought along a Norwalk cap to photo sessions this summer as well to have those types of images at the ready come May and graduation season, so we had a little bit of creativity with that as a prop too.

Braelyn plans to attend college and contribute to their soccer team, so we headed out to the stadium to recognize that part of her athletic life as well:

Amber & Braelyn – Thank you so much for entrusting this part of your senior photos to me and my camera! I had a great time getting to know you and learn about your hopes for the future. Enjoy the remainder of your summer – senior year will come fast and furious!

All the best,

Carrie
