Gaining the trust of my clients is probably the most important part of the process for me. It’s really the only way to create photos that feel effortless. This wedding day with Edie & Gavin was a bit of a roller coaster, with unexpected illness, pop up thunderstorms, and a couple of other wild cards, but you’d really never know any of that from these photos. They worked through all of it with grace and trusted my lead. The overwhelming feeling at day’s end was unbridled joy. Their reception will be one I won’t ever forget. So much love, pride, and happiness in the room, and I felt so lucky to be the outsider getting to witness it all.

Long distance love. A whirlwind engagement. A wedding dress from 1910, found in her grandmother’s trunk. A stunning old church. This entire day felt like stepping back in time. I loved being a part of it. Congrats, K & K. You two are special.🥂

Baby number three brings chaos and joy to new levels in equal parts. 😌 Such an honor to document this milestone for this beautiful family. Newborn shoots with older siblings are my absolute favorite.

Sessions with these three are always a bright spot in my schedule. Their daughter is spunky and smart and they’re such tender parents. I do lots of chatting with Marin between photos and she always chooses to hold my hand when we’re walking around. 😌 I always take time to chit chat with kiddos before I do any directing, and sessions always involve plenty of movement and exploring. Usually feels more like a play date than a photo shoot. 🤍

Jadyn & Peyton’s West Des Moines wedding was so much fun. I wish you could have seen the way the bridesmaids belted out Enchanted by Taylor Swift after she got in her dress. And the tears flowing down her sister’s cheeks through so much of the day. And the little boy who handed her a dandelion at the park because he thought she looked beautiful. And I wish you could have seen how proud and delighted their families were, and heard the incredible speeches about these two. Instead I’ll leave you with little glimpses of the overwhelming joy contained in one day.

The most darling family welcomes baby number three. This relaxed family session in Des Moines ended with strawberry ice cream and swings at the playground. Baby number three is the cherry on top. 🥺

Your photos will be as emotional as you are.

If you know me in real life, you’ll know I’m not into faking feelings. Therefore I won’t make you fake anything for the camera. I’ll provide all the guidance you need for beautiful portraits. But the feelings? Those are all you. And I’ll be there to capture them all. 🤍

A re-edit for my web site I fell in love with all over again. Sweetest couple. Sweetest day in southern Iowa.

A Denver, Colorado family session with our besties. It’s been an honor and a privilege to photograph them over the years. They are some of our nearest and dearest. Effortless love in every direction. It’s so easy to capture their connection because they know how to have fun together. Eric & Katie are warm, generous, and invest in the people they love in meaningful ways. They’re raising three beautiful little humans and my boys are lucky enough to be loved by them too.

When their middle daughter, Kinsley, was younger, she told her older sister, Elliette, she was going to marry my son, Channing. Elliette said, “you can’t marry him! He’s our cousin!” No one corrected her. 😌 She doesn’t think that anymore but I still hope they get married one day.

Chloe & Charles after a rainstorm in Iowa.
A slow burn from meeting in middle school to dating in high school, and now the absolute sweetest couple engaged to be married. These two were so chill and sweet and such a joy to photograph. Can’t wait to document the next big milestone in their love story. ✨

This Des Moines wedding didn’t go perfectly according to plan. There were several snafus that will one day be funny stories. But my goodness, it was wonderful. So many happy tears. I’m so lucky to have been in the room for this one. They are wildly precious people surrounded by so much love and care.

Congrats, Mr. & Mrs. Dineen. You have a wonderful life ahead of you. 🥂
