The Manz Family Pictures…Johnston, Des Moines, Grimes, Granger, Polk City, Urbandale, Clive, West Des Moines Photographer

Here is the Manz family who I have been photographing for two years now and every session we get more and more creative how we are going to get the girls to smile…most of the time some sort of wonderful sugary delight (aka candy) works but now that the youngest is two we had to be even more creative. First princess fruit snacks, then delicious giant lollipops, how about some fancy beads, and finally what got us the biggest smiles ever was a vintage children’s book…who would of guessed…but we will take it! Thank you Manz family for always being up for my crazy ideas…enjoy your sneak peek!

Ashley’s High School Senior Photo Shoot Session…Johnston, Ankeny, Des Moines Iowa Photographer

This gorgeous girl was a dream to photograph! I was back in my hometown doing photo shoot sessions for the week. It was great to get to go back to my alumni’s football field and capture her with one of her loves..soccer. We spent some time doing urban style downtown Harlan and then off to her family farm capturing her in some very cool spots like an old barn, a rock road, and an old run down truck. There will be more to come from this gorgeous girl when she visits me in Johnston for a studio session. Thank you Ashley for some amazing images and good luck with your senior year!

Bruck Family Spring Photo Shoot Session….Johnston, Ankeny, Des Moines Photographer

What a fabulous location this session was at! This gorgeous family just happens to be my brother in law and sister and law and their family and we meet in Panora, Iowa for a Father’s Day picnic so we thought what better time to squeeze in a family  session.  I of course will not be able to take my normal clients here since it is so far from my home but it was fun to check the historical town out with my family. I love to show off my niece and my nephew and can not get over how cute they are. Thanks Bruck family and enjoy!

The Koppin Family….Johnston, Ankeny, Des Moines, Iowa Photographer

Really no other word to describe this family beside…CUTE! I have know Shannon the mom since she was in high school and worked with me and now here she is with three little kiddos of her own. I loved the colors and style she decided on for the session and with the location it couldn’t of been any better. Thank you Koppin family for such a  fantastic session and I hope you enjoy your sneak peek.
