Some places become part of your family’s story.
When this family reached out about a session, they knew exactly where they wanted it to be. With Clyde’s Fine Diner closing its doors at the end of the month, they wanted photos in a place that’s been woven into years of everyday moments, traditions, and memories.
That’s one of my favorite things about photography - preserving the places that matter just as much as the people in them.

If Clyde’s has been part of your story too, consider this your reminder to stop in for one more meal before they close. ❤️

✨ Mini Session Season ✨

There’s something about photographing people in the middle of their real life - not posed, not perfect, just present. This season I’m offering two mini session opportunities in some of my favorite places:

🌹 Summer Mini Sessions at Clare and Miles Mills Rose Garden behind the Des Moines Arts Center on August 8, 2026
🍂 Fall Mini Sessions at Jester Park in Granger on October 17, 2026

Each 30-minute session is designed to slow things down just enough to notice what matters - connection, movement, laughter, and the in-between moments that often mean the most. If you’ve been wanting updated photos that feel like you, I’d love to see you this season.

🌿 Book your session here:

Taking a moment away from business to celebrate a personal milestone: 16 years of marriage. Grateful for the love, support, and teamwork that make everything else possible. ❤️ this photo was from our Vow Renewal about 10 years ago. We will be together 20 years next year. Time flies!

There is something entirely magical about a wedding day wrapped in quiet intimacy. ✨At Storyteller Collective Photo Co, photography is rooted in natural and candid moments - and nothing allows those genuine connections to shine quite like an intimate wedding.

When you strip away the big timelines and the heavy crowds, you are left with just the two of you, the people who love you most, and raw, unfiltered joy.

I have a select few remaining dates open for the 2026 wedding season, and I want to fill them with stories just like this. If you are planning a smaller, intimate wedding, a backyard celebration, or an intentional elopement here in the Midwest (or beyond!), I would love nothing more than to document it for you. 🌿Let’s skip the stiff posing and focus on what matters most.

Love in its truest, most natural form knows no boundaries. 🤍🌈 At Storyteller Collective Photo Co, photography is rooted in natural and candid moments for those who want effortless connection. I believe with my whole heart that all love is love - and every single love story is safe, welcomed, and celebrated here. There is nothing more beautiful than documenting couples who are completely, unapologetically themselves.

To all the incredible couples celebrating: love without limits today and every single day. Happy Pride Month!

it’s live ✨

my new website for Storyteller Collective is officially up.

This space has been a long time coming - a home for the kind of work I love most: honest, nostalgic photography that feels like a memory you didn’t know you needed yet.

less about perfect posing.
more about real moments, movement, and emotion as it actually felt.

Storyteller Collective Photo Co has always been about capturing people as they are - soft, loud, in love, in-between.

if you’ve been here before, thank you for growing with me. If you’re new here, welcome in 🤍

You can explore the new site + inquire for 2026 and 2027 dates through the link in bio.

✨ RECOVERY SALE UPDATE ✨

I’ve updated the previous Recovery Sale post with a direct booking link to make scheduling easier for everyone. 🙌

For a limited time, full sessions are available for $300 plus tax (regularly $500). Sessions are being pre-booked now for future dates during the summer and fall seasons while I recover from surgery and gradually return to my schedule.

Once your session is booked, I’ll personally be in touch to coordinate and schedule your actual session date.

Thank you all so much for the continued support, patience, and love during this time - it truly means more than you know. ❤️
