It’s unusual for me to attend weddings these days when I am not the photographer. A couple weekends ago that happened. A guest! Wonderful! We made our way to Iowa City for a backyard wedding on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. We got to the house and walked around to the backyard and I was so [...]

I always say “I don’t do weddings” and then I meet a couple I adore, and I can’t help but want to be a part of their special day. Don’t tell anyone but it’s really fun to shoot weddings. Shhh, that’s between you and me. Seriously though, there is so much laughter and smiling. You [...]
It was a great photography weekend. I packed up my stuff and made my way to Des Moines for a Saturday photo shoot with a totally fantastic family, and I am not say just saying that because they fed me Jimmy Johns. No, really! We had so much fun setting up shop in their sun [...]

Still a little unfinished but you can see where this is going. It’s my own little corner of the world here in Grinnell. I was officially open on Sunday. Had a yoga class at 10am and then an interview with a couple about shooting their wedding. Both went well. The big open house for the [...]
I’ll admit that I resisted the senior portrait work for a long time. I have somewhat been forced into it lately since a lot of my friends have seniors and wanted me to take their pictures. Don’t tell anyone, but I have really enjoyed this work. Maybe it’s the people I have worked with, and [...]

Spent an hour with a fellow yoga instructor. We went to do headshots but couldn’t help but take a few yoga pics in this cool area around Grinnell. This was one of my favorites. Beautiful model, beautiful pose!
