Meet the Photographer
Oh hey! I'm Bre.
I'm a wife, mama, & stepmom who loves exploring new places, eating delicious pizza, and doing pretty much anything that puts me by a lake. I also love stories - especially the ones with lots of pretty pictures!
I want to tell a part of your story. Whatever season of life you're in, I just know there's a story waiting to be told. Maybe you're a couple celebrating yet another year together or a mother expecting her very first child. Maybe you have young children who seem to change by the day, or older teens who are days away from leaving home. Or, maybe you're preparing for what will be the biggest day of your life. Being included in creating these lasting memories with you brings me so much joy. Let's connect, create, and celebrate your season of life together.

FAQ
Where are you based and do you travel?
I live and work in West Des Moines, Iowa and am available for travel. Let's explore together!
How many pictures will we receive?
For my full portrait sessions, I don't limit the amount of images I deliver - you'll get all the good ones! During typical portrait sessions, I deliver roughly 50 images per hour. Each image is edited to my artistic styling.
When will we get our photos?
Your will receive an online gallery link with all your photos within four weeks of your session. You can download all the photos from the gallery or just choose your favorites! Galleries will remain available up to six months after your session.
What should we wear for our session?
Once you book, you'll receive my Portrait Session Style Guide, which has lots of information and styling tips for your family. In general, neutrals, pastels, and muted colors photograph best. Stay away from distracting patterns or colors that are too bright. Sometimes it's easiest to pick one "statement piece" and then pull colors from that outfit to dress and layer everyone else. Best advice? Keep it simple, muted, and clean to allow for timeless images that puts the focus where it's supposed to be - on you and your family!
