Always such a pleasure working with Chrysalis Counseling Center, LLC in West Des Moines 🤍

This was my second time photographing headshots for their incredible team, and they continue to be some of the warmest, most welcoming professionals to work with. You can truly feel the care and intentionality they bring — not just to their clients, but to everyone who walks through their doors.

If you or someone you love is looking for compassionate, supportive counseling, I highly encourage you to check out their page and learn more about the amazing work they’re doing in our community.
So grateful for continued partnerships like this ✨

From tiny dancing shoes to proud firefighter dads and moms twirling their kids around the floor, it was such a special evening filled with smiles, the best dance moves, and cherished memories. These are the moments that remind us that behind every call, every uniform, and long shift, there’s a family at home cheering them on and waiting for them to walk back through the door.

📸 Hey Des Moines Firefighters, the photo gallery is ready! The gallery link will be shared via email very soon — keep an eye on your inbox!

Thank you again to our Local 4 families for showing up, dressing up, and filling the room with so much love and support. It’s an honor to share the human side of the amazing firefighters who serve Des Moines every day.

There’s something so beautiful about the quiet start to a wedding day. The hum of excitement, the last few makeup touches, and those deep breaths before stepping into the dress. These little in-between moments tell just as much of the story as the big ones. 💍

Between the chaos and celebration, we find a moment that’s just theirs. The kind that feels like forever.

Amid all the celebration, it’s these quiet in-between moments that stay with you.
A forehead kiss. A hand squeeze. Just being together.

A gentle hand that’s held a lifetime of stories,
and a tiny one just beginning to write hers. 💕
