    HALEY MATERNITY • DES MOINES IOWA FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER

    Haley’s solo artsy creative maternity session at the art center in Des Moines Iowa 😍 Maternity photos should be about YOU and show off your vibe. Haley is colorful and fun and obviously one of my most beautiful favorite people, so a late fall maternity adventure during sunset was perfect (can’t wait for our snowy velvet session!)

    One of the first questions I get when clients inquire with me for a maternity session is “How big do I have to be before I book?” and I usually follow by asking – well, how big do you WANT to be? Maternity sessions are typically booked late in the second trimester, but can also be booked as late as you feel like going! I want to make sure you feel good about yourself in these photos, so knowing that you’re in a physical state of *somewhat* comfort will be important!

    Next – WHAT TO WEAR?! Trust me, I love fashion – I have good ideas for fashion and can generally offer advise on what will photograph or look good with the location, but when it comes to what you wear – I think it’s most important that it represents YOU and makes you feel good about yourself. If you wanna wear a bright yellow skirt with a “MAMA” shirt in leopard – HECK YES. If you want to wear a flowy velvet dress, YES! If you want to wear jeans and a sweatshirt – YAS GIRL GET IT!! I am here to make you feel like a pregnant goddess and have some fun.

    I love meeting new mommas and helping them document this special time in their lives. Enjoy this beautiful momma’s maternity highlights and if you’re looking for someone to take YOUR maternity photos, let’s connect!

  • Clover’s Joy Session • Iowa Pet Photographer

    Clover’s Joy Session • Iowa Pet Photographer

    My first passion in life has always been animals, and then science, and then later in life it became photography. To be able to *somewhat* put them together by photographing animals is truly a dream come true. I mean, it’s never under the best circumstances when it’s something that’s associated with goodbye’s and end-of-life times, but to be able to provide such a memory is something I’m very humbled to be a part of. I never look forward to these, but I enjoy the sweetness and pace of photographing an elderly animal. The tender moments where families can reflect on the funny memories of their pet and to be able to capture that love – it’s breathtakingly beautiful.

    So everyone, meet Clover. Clover is a sweet fifteen-year-old black lab gal loved by two tiny humans and a mom & dad. Her momma shared with me some words about her while we were prepping for the session. I’ll go ahead and share it here. Enjoy <3

    Clover used to be a crazy obnoxious lab but has certainly mellowed in her old age. I can’t begin to tell you all the things she has chewed up in her lifetime (countless shoes, wedding photos, library books, our tax refund check). Now she really just lays around and will follow us from room to room to make sure she is where we are. My husband has a special bond with her because he is the one who picked her out at the shelter as a puppy and trained her, so we like to say Clover really has only listened to him.
