Welcome to
Picturing Us Photography.
I've been behind a camera for more than a decade — most of it traveling, all of it obsessing over light, story, and the moments most people miss. Now I'm doing it for couples and families in Des Moines.
I treat every shoot like it's mine: creativity, precision, and a vibe that puts you at ease in front of the camera. The goal is photos you'll come back to in 30 years and still feel something.

What clients say.
"Coming soon — your testimonial here."

"Coming soon — your testimonial here."
Photography you actually own.
Most photographers in Iowa still charge for prints, watermark your previews, or ration files like they're rare. I don't. The whole gallery — every full-resolution photo, no marks, yours to print, share, or post forever — is included in every package.
Add a Des Moines local who speaks Spanish and has shot in 80+ countries, and you've got someone who'll feel at home at a quinceañera in Pella, an elopement in Iceland, or your parents' farm in Adel. Same photographer. Same care.
Tell me about your day.
Just your name, email, and a couple sentences. I'll get back within 24 hours — usually faster. Phone & date are optional and can come later.
