This session with Mary is what my senior picture dreams are made of! No, seriously, I scouted our last location (Lake Red Rock) five years ago and have been dreaming of shooting there ever since. Let’s just say, it didn’t fall short.

We started the session at my Valley Junction studio for some photos with Mary’s cat (hi, Clark!) before heading to Waterworks Park in Des Moines and finally down to Lake Red Rock. Still praising the Lord for the perfect weather, perfect light, and perfect wildflowers we had!

Enjoy a few of my favorites from this Des Moines senior session!
