Ryan’s mom hired me to take photos of her son, wanting to capture this season in his life. And it was such a perfect evening! Ryan brought his best self & smile, and we enjoyed wandering Des Moines alleyways and rooftops, ending with some portraits of him with his car & Han Solo’s ‘sabacc’ dice! You know I love a good Star Wars reference, so this is a senior session I’ll long remember!
I’m a fan of summertime, golden hour, and wildflowers- and so is Kaitlyn! We had a blast exploring West Des Moines for her senior photos this last month.
Lauren brought such fun vibes to her modern East Village senior photo session! I can’t believe this hadn’t made it’s way onto the blog yet…oops. Enjoy some late summer senior photos from 2021!
Claire wanted fall senior photos, and Iowa definitely delivered! Between Valley Junction’s cute downtown, and the stunning colors of autumn at Dale Maffit Lake Reservoir, we had a stunning session to capture her seinor year memories.
It was a hot day in August, but the clouds rolled in to give us some relief from the humidity. Zoe can be more quiet than some, but we still great giggles together while exploring Valley Junction and West Des Moines for her senior photo experience!!
Downtown Des Moines is always a fun place to take senior photos, even if you live in Waukee or Ankeny. There’s just so much more to explore, and we took some of Abi’s pictures around some of my favorite corners in the heart of DSM. Click through to see more photos!
Lupe and I had a blast running around downtown before the sun set back in early September, and I’m so glad we had a gorgeous evening to capture some great photos for her to remember senior year by!
Maffit Lake is absolutely gorgeous, and was the perfect location for Elle’s late summertime senior photos with her horse. She rides competitively, and will probably continue to show in college, so it was perfect to include Franklin in her photos!
This senior session was just so wonderful, and it’s crazy now that only a month ago things were still so brown!! I’m thankful spring (and summer TBH) finally arrived in Iowa, and cannot WAIT for senior sessions at the Art Center this summer when things are green & blooming!!
Elizabeth booked 2 sessions with me for senior photos last summer- one before braces and one during (because SUMMER!!). I’m so glad we had a session in the summer, because the lighting was MAGIC and her ideas were amazing! We started off at the High School pool — she dives on the team!— and ended in a dream field of wildflowers. SO obsessed with these senior portraits!!
Sophia’s love for music, fun colors, and bright personality meshed together perfectly in this summertime senior session! This gal won’t be a high schooler in Des Moines much longer, and I can’t wait to see what she does after graduation!
Some exciting and important news in the post about senior photos for the class of 2023 ~ make sure to read all the way to the bottom!! Also, enjoy Zoey’s summertime senior photos. My fingers are currently ice cubes and I miss hot weather. ;)
Skylar is a senior at a high school here in the des moines area and she emailed me about taking her senior pics. We had a wonderful night, and she totally brought the vibes to her senior photo session!
Zoe’s senior photos took place on a humid Iowa evening, but you wouldn’t even know how hot it was outside by her calm smiles! She graduates this year from Valley High School in West Des Moines, and will be on to new adventures this fall at university. Enjoy a few favorites from my time with this sweet dancer!
Cierra jumped in front of my camera with the ease of a gal familiar with modeling. She did so well, and we had fun (despite the humidity!) taking photos around the Des Moines Art Center and downtown. This session had a good mix of nature + city vibes, and I can’t wait to see which ones her mom hangs up on the wall!
Check out Sophia’s sweet downtown senior photo session from last summer! We started out in the heart of downtown Des Moines, and ended up in Ankeny in a field of wildflowers— the best kind of evening. :) Follow along to see more!
This sweet gal traveled to Des Moines just to have me take her senior portraits! It was an honor— and SO MUCH FUN! I think we went over our time (the sun definitely set on us!) but it was worth the end photos we got. Amber is a blast to hang out with, and her East Village senior pictures are some of the highlights of my career!!
I uploaded a few new photos, along with some previous work, because I’m having such a blast with the class of 2021! Summer is my favorite season to take senior photos —maybe this will show you why! The light is soft, we get late sunsets and lots of pretty wildflowers. Plus, it might be hot… but at least it isn’t cold! After all, Iowa seems to spend half the year in winter. ;) Enjoy some stunning senior portraits and email me if you’re in need of your own senior pictures here in Des Moines, Ankeny, Ames, or even Cedar Falls or Dubuque!
