Ashley - senior pictures are in session!

I was in Des Moines over the weekend and had the privilege of meeting and photographing Ashley. It's been 8 years since my residence in Des Moines and I enjoyed getting to know the new and improved downtown and river front. Fortunately we made it to the river after the flooding receded so we weren't swept away! It was a beautiful evening and we had a wonderful, slightly windy experience. Thanks, Ashley, for shooting on such quick notice. You're such a beautiful and fun you woman. And thanks, Tony, for the great suggestions. We might have to consider a business deal. ;-)







Tired tootsies.

I've always loved this Asian thingamajig. I'm so excited I got to catch it in the background!


Don't you just love the bare feet and the beautiful dress?

The new (to me) bridge.

And the cute couple!

Aren't these red doors amazing? This church downtown must have half a dozen of them. I've always admired them. I love red!

And since we didn't have a red rose for a prop, we decided to try the red door instead. I'm going to try my hand at some colorization when I return from a quick trip to Tennessee - black & white subject against a red door! Sounds exciting doesn't it?

This was friend Tony's idea. Thanks again, Anthony!




And the best for last...

Good luck, Ashley! I hope your Senior year is THE BEST!
