Congratulations Graduate!

Senior year only happens once. That's exactly why my senior experience is one that is unmatched throughout the Des Moines metro. I bring every one of my seniors' personalities to life by creating a portrait experience unique to you.

I serve the Des Moines, IA area and focus on a fresh, modern style that emphasizes capturing who you are as a person at this important milestone in your lives.

I'm dedicated to giving you a one-of-a-kind senior portrait experience that is unmatched in the entire metro area. That’s exactly why no detail is too small. From prepping you with perfect outfits and locations that fit them perfectly to archive quality photo products like albums that you’ll want to show off, the senior experience is more than just taking photos.

The Perfect Edit

I believe in images that aren't over edited.

All of your senior pictures are hand retouched to enhance the color, contrast. While I work to make sure you look your very best, your images won't look overly Photoshopped and will still look like the best version of you.

02.
Location & Wardrobe

You're unique, and your senior session should be too.

Every senior session is unique to you. I believe that your photos should reflect you and your personality through your outfits and location. Each session begins with working to style the perfect wardrobe for your session. I then work to find locations that match your vision so that your outfits look like they were designed to be photographed in that very location and your pictures come out better than you could have envisioned!

Whether it's prepping you in advance for your session so that you come in feeling confident and stress-free for your shoot or bringing your best friend along to your photoshoot so that you can get photos and form those memories together, it all comes down to making sure this becomes one of the best parts of your senior year when you look back at this time in your life.
