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

She is taking right after her brother. I thought as we got Jaxon & Amelia’s session with their gorgeous Mama started. I first met this family when Jaxon was two and now, his two year old little sister only wants to be on the run-just as Jaxon had wanted in that session of his four years ago. 

So, parents that I currently photograph, and potential clients take note: some sessions, we mostly get candids because that’s when a Little One is happiest!!

It was a blustery morning, so we worked quickly to get a few standard family photos first:

The fall colors were out in abundance and the gentle sunshine was perfect for this little family.

Running and puddle jumping. what more could a two year old ask for? 🙂 

Melissa, Jaxon + Amelia: A pleasure as always you three! I hope you have a wonderful holiday season and plenty of time outdoors to RUN. 😉 See you soon.

Blessings, 

Carrie
