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

When she won this session from a raffle drawing, I was so excited to get to know her family a bit more! I was doubly excited to learn they were expecting Baby #4 and would be using the session as a family/maternity session. As with any pregnancy, Nichole wasn’t sure if she wanted to be photographed in the last trimester when you feel huge no matter what people tell you. But oh, my, goodness! Nichole-you make #4 look REALLY GOOD!!!! You are absolutely beautiful!!

These sitting down ones where they’re snuggling may be my faves:

Oh Haven, you’re darling! You have quite the brood of handsome brothers too!

A reward for their awesome photo session skillz: 😉 m&m’s!!!

Adam + Nichole: Thank you so much for following through on the raffle win! I’m so thankful you got to grace the front of my camera. I had a blast and I pray smooth sailing for the rest of your pregnancy, delivery and recovery!

Blessings, 

Carrie
