Iowa State University
Iowa State University quiets down for a month over winter break, and we took advantage of that to capture some moments of Elizabeth & Zachary on the campus where they met, fell in love, got engaged and are planning their next steps. Please enjoy these lovely winter engagement photos!!
Alyson wanted to capture some photos with her horse to celebrate graduation from ISU! I always jump on the chance to get to celebrate with ISU grads, and this was a perfect session - I think you’ll love it!
Being a graduate from ISU and having lived in Ames for 5 years, it’s always a joy to get to celebrate a variety of life milestones back on campus. Kayla and Pablo met in Ames, and married at their church across the street from the MU on a beautiful Friday in May. I can’t wait for you to see this sweet wedding day!
We had a deliciously beautiful evening wandering our alma mater of ISU. Summertime is ISU at its most calm, and in some regards, its most enjoyable season! Enjoy Liz and Chris’ engagement session. :)
I’m so thrilled to get to know these two - they’re also ISU Alumni (go Cyclones!) and we had so much fun hanging out on a warm October evening this year. Abby and Thomas will be getting married on campus, in Ames, next year and I’m just so excited to get to capture their love then, too!
Even with some rain, we had fun running from the east side of campus to the west and all ‘round the campanile. Between a mix of serious and fun photos, Doz rocked them all and it was a fast hour together. Carly stepped in for a few of them together… they’re so perfect for one another, it was easy to see that! Enjoy Doz’s graduation photos at ISU in Ames!
What could be better than celebrating graduating from Vet Med school (with honors!!) at Iowa State, than by a grad photo session!? I can’t think of anything. Monique and I snapped some great photos for her to show off to family and friends… see more in the blog post!

Graduation photos on Drake University’s campus!? Yes please! Photos with Griff the Bulldog!? HECK YES! Click to see Kelly’s sweet grad pictures and senior photo session here in the heart of Des Moines!
Pandemic or not, time marches on. Including schooling and graduation! Cory is a 2020 graduate of Iowa State University, and he wanted to commemorate this milestone with some professional senior photos. It was a joy to meet this young man, and capture photos for him to remember this season of life. Congrats to the Class of 2020!
Savannah and Harrison met through Iowa State University in Ames, Iowa. Both of them are students there, and involved in the military and ministry. They both value leadership, faith, and fun! I’d known Savannah for a few years (as acquaintances) and although I hadn’t met Harrison until the day we took their engagement photos, we got along great. Both of us are NEEDTOBREATHE fans, so really, what else is there to know!? #immediatefriends
Sara & Matt met at Iowa State University their freshman year of college. They dated while in school, dated long distance, and finally have settled in St. Louis, where they live, work, and got engaged!!! They’re planning a wedding for October 2019 and after spending an evening with them, I can tell you it will be wonderful!
Lizzy and I met through a church small group about 3 years ago. I didn’t know her very well for a while, except that she was an agronomy student at Iowa State University, had a bubbly personality, and loved to travel through school! The next year, we ended up being roommates (which means I got to know her a lot more!) and found out that she bakes when she’s stressed, enjoys watching One Tree Hill, and was falling in love with a guy named Nate. I’ve been able to watch their relationship progress and grow from (almost) the start. It’s been full of trials and excitement, and I’m so excited to see these two finally get married in December!
Casey and Alycia won my summer giveaway last year— which meant that we got to hang out one evening in late October, and take some beautiful fall pictures! I met Alycia through a mutual friend back when she was in undergrad school at UNI, and when I was at Hawkeye for photography. They were looking for an engagement photographer, and I just happened to be available. ;)
It's been two years since these two got married, and they will be leaving Ames and moving to St. Louis this month for Brennan's job. To commemorate their time in Ames, they asked me to photograph some anniversary photos! And we had the perfect evening to shoot...
I love senior photos as a college senior because it’s SO MUCH MORE of an accomplishment to graduate from university than high school. (Don’t get me wrong, that’s great thing, too!) 4 years of intense studying, late nights working on projects in the campus library or engineering halls, learning how to be an adult and use Cy-Ride or wash laundry or cook meals… college is SUCH a life experience! I wish more university seniors took the time to commemorate with some professional photos!
These two were a dream to photograph! I've been waiting since what seems like forever to take these photos, and the evening did not disappoint. ;) Liz was one of my first friends at ISU, and we immediately connected due to our similar taste in books & art. We quickly confided in each other about girl talk (aka, which boys we were crushin' on) and she admitted that she'd liked Scott since their freshman year "Joshua Team." It took the rest of that year, a summer together in Indonesia for a mission trip, and a fall semester before Scott called Liz up, took her to Ledges, and officially asked her out! (I still have vivid memories of sitting in the hall of her dorm, getting all the details and giggling like 5 year olds. So much fun.) Now, a year & a half later, they're engaged…and getting married in exactly two weeks! I can't wait!
