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

This family has grown before my eyes (and my camera’s eye). Photographing them when they were just a family of four, adding a son-in-law, adding a grandson, and now, Johnny O is going to be a big brother!

but first, we have to include who all was present at this session. I’ve done several sessions with Becky’s side of the family but hadn’t photographed Zac’s parents since Becky & Zac married. So, we brought them in for a few:

Usually, Zac doesn’t sport a mustache, but I have to give props to him (and Becky) for tolerating the facial fuzz for a month while our church marches towards their goal of raising $25,000 to help families if they choose to pursue adoption. If adoption is something near to you, I can highly recommend you to their website: www.mustachesthatmatter.com 

Again, I digress….

Zac plays his fair share of disc golf and our session happened to take place on a course, so we had to do the obligatory “baby in the basket” portrait for Johnny O for both his own and for their family’s big news (the photo that opened this post). 

Congratulations Becky & Zac! Excited to meet Johnny’s counterpart and future partner in crime. 🙂 You can view the remainder of our session together HERE. 

Blessings in a healthy pregnancy, a smooth and safe arrival,

Carrie
