Sarah and Erik

Sarah and Erik were my fourth and final engagement session from last Sunday. These two were a lot of fun and really easy going. It made getting the shots a breeze. We started at Water Works Park...wow, it was the busiest I've ever seen it. There were two weddings taking photos near the fountain as well as 50+ high school kid's taking photos for homecoming. Yikes, the parking was nuts especially since there is only parking for 10 cars normally. We waited it out for a while but decided to move on until they all eventually left. We were able to get a few shots around the fountain, but the best shots came from what we did while waiting. We headed over to the maintenance barn at Water Works. We also hit the Sculpture Park as well as some alleys in the area. Check out our aliens attack photo below...see what I mean by fun. A few of our favorites are below.

Sarah and Jacob

Sarah and Jacob were my third engagement session on Sunday. We stuck to downtown locations, did a little walking, and had a great time. As you can see they are Iowa and Iowa State fans. Many of you know the location of these two air conditioning units near Central Iowa Mechanical. They make a fun spot to capture some Iowa and Iowa State love and hate. We had some fun with them and had a great time overall. We followed up the downtown shots by heading over to Water Works Park to finish up the shoot. Great time, great photos.

Kelly and Dan

Last Sunday Kelly and Dan were my second engagement shoot of the day. After racing back from Ames's morning engagement session I met up with Kelly and Dan at Union Park in Des Moines. We were really hoping we would be able to get some shots on the Carousel there or at least on the Rocket Slide. Sadly neither happened. The Carousel was closed and the Rocket Slide was being worked on. None the less, we made the best of it. We also made stops near the Botanical Center, the Science Center, and the old train depot. I had a great time with Kelly and Dan and we are really looking forward to the wedding.
