I'm updating my proofs policy in 2026.

I really strive to get your images out to you as quickly as possible because I understand how excited you are to view and share them with friends and family!

Starting in 2026, proof galleries not selected within 30 days will incur a $25 late fee. Late galleries will be worked into the current editing stack as time allows.

It's been a long week at school, but I got to end it hanging out with some of my favorite people and their dogs!

I don't really recall how I became friends with the Sundermanns 12 years ago, but I'm very thankful I did. Cole is now working in the shop for the drama productions, I see Ben up in the band wing, and I still make time to drop by Carl's office when I don't feel like working. It's crazy to see how much the boys have grown since the last time we took photos, five years ago.

Thanks for tolerating 30 minutes of my pet voices tonight 😅

An adorable family that was full of smiles and a few wiggles! We were so thankful that the weather was almost perfect for a family session on Sunday, since Madison and her amazing family drove from out of state to come shoot.

It was so much fun to capture those perfect moments of love and silliness this weekend.

Happy senior night to the class of 2026. Whether you're playing the game, marching in the band, or dancing with the color guard, you all deserve a massive round of applause!

A chill evening with a chill senior this week. Val was so great to work with as we wandered Valley Junction and then shot at a place that was important to them, all while discussing photography and their future endeavors.

Looking forward to a couple more sessions down the line!

A quiet evening in Valley Junction with Quinn for the first of her sessions. Loved shooting a little later in the evening to capture some of the glow of Valley Junction.

It's been a busy time of year for photos, and I'm so thankful to each senior and their families for letting me work with them. A handful of sessions to still capture and looking forward to each and every one.

I always encourage seniors to bring their passions to their sessions; it just makes things more fun and magical.

When Owen's family reached out to me about shooting with his marimba outside, I was all for it! Let me tell you, when I got out of my car and could hear the sounds of the marimba floating through the air, the magic was already present!

Mitchell lucked out with probably one of the most lovely evenings for shooting yesterday. We had a great time wandering a stretch of downtown and getting snazzy with his sessions. Capturing a few similar images to his older brother, Elliot, enjoying live music, and maybe a little people watching with all the hubbub of a Saturday evening in Des Moines.

A magical evening under the (projected stars and fireworks) for Ryan and Shaun. But it was magical nonetheless.

Literally surrounded by all of their adoring friends, it was a casual night for their reception at the Science Center. Capturing love in a new and fun atmosphere was a delight, and I look forward to spending more time on their photos in the coming weeks.

Another talented senior with many musical passions.

Owen's session on Monday was part moody and part silly. We've got something fun planned for next week, fingers crossed that the weather plays nicely.
