I don't own a studio, but I do offer the Greater Des Moines Botanical Garden as a wonderful indoor option for those wanting controlled temps and to avoid harsh weather conditions. It's an additional $15 and I'll need to call to check availability and reserve your date 2 weeks in advance. Or we can book your session at other studios around Des Moines!

The retainer fee is non-refundable for the date you book with me. If it is less than 72 hours before the session and you need to move the date, we can cancel your current contract and you are more than welcome to rebook on the desired date with a new retainer paid. I do this because I most likely turned down other work/sessions for this date to book yours.

No. I believe in embracing your bodies exactly as they are. I'll generally edit out minor scrapes or bruises if requested or noticable, however, my goal is to capture your real and authentic selves at whatever phase of life you're in.

If it rains, sleets or whatever else midwest weather throws at us that is unsafe or unsuitable for a session, I will absolutely work with you to reschedule. I allow one reschedule!
