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

Oh what a sweet family this is! Katie & Kyle’s oldest, Nora, is such a great conversationalist-I was so impressed not only with her vocabulary and full sentences, but how well she stayed with me in conversation as we got to know each other. And their youngest, Addie, is a doll, and while it took her a little longer to warm up to my camera, I love seeing her smiling back at me as I edited these images. Enjoy!

Nora-you are the sweetest! And Addie, your eyes!! 

A few walking, “flying” and trying to warm up in the sunshine on this blustery morning: 

Nora is such a good follower of directions, especially when it comes to helping Addie. Totally reminded me of growing up with my older sister. The last one is my absolute fav from their session: 

Kyle + Katie: Thank you so much for having me and for rescheduling due to weather constraints! I’m so glad we were able to get this to work out! Your girls are wonderful and I’m excited to watch them grow in front of my camera! 

Blessings, 

Carrie
