Some family pictures I took back in August. 💙💚💙

It’s been a while, but I photographed a wedding over the weekend! What a beautiful bride! 😍😍😍

Recent newborn session. 😍😍😍

I've been quiet on this page for a bit, but we're making a few changes over here (namely a new member to my team) and we're working hard at what we love.

We had such a fun time photographing Halle & Steffen before their prom on Saturday!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

Happy Holidays, from Thirteen Roses Photography. Think of us for all your holiday photo needs! Message me if you would like information about regular sessions or mini holiday sessions.

This year, Santa means business. This kid seriously cracks me up! Is it really possible that he's already almost two years old??

Trick or Treating is serious business. Happy (early) Halloween, everyone!

Sneak preview of an engagement session I did today. Congratulations to this amazing and adorable couple!

Trying this out for the first time! I will have mini sessions available for the two weekends listed - a red wagon and pumpkins will be provided, and you can dress your children in their Halloween costumes to have a nice memory for years to come. Message me if you are interested!

Newborn session with none other than my handsome new nephew! Only one of many that I absolutely loved.

I'm not a fan of bugs, but I decided to take advantage of the fact that he was on the other side of the glass!

When your nephew is just way too cute.

Decided I would post this on my actual photography page as well. I entered four photos into the Iowa State Fair Photography Salon again, and I didn't win any awards, but it still feels pretty cool to have a photo on display at one of the top state fairs in the country! 50% of the photographers who entered are on display, with 31% having one photo on display. Last year I didn't even have any photos chosen for display, so this definitely feels like a win to me. 😊 Hopefully my photography will only continue to improve, and now that I know next year's theme, it's time to start preparing again! 😜

Getting ready to have a baby! It's always nice to have the support of your significant other.

Sneak preview from a family/baby session I did earlier this week!

Sneak peek from a maternity session I did yesterday! So glad she let me take some individual pictures of her.

I really need to get into the habit of posting regular updates and sneak previews, as they happen, and not just posting to my personal page. So here's a sneak preview from a baby shower that I photographed yesterday!

This was my second wedding to ever photograph and the first time using my Nikon D750!

6 Photographers Capture the Same Person But Their Results Vary Widely Because of a Twist (VIDEO)

I found this video to be an essential lesson in portrait photography and something that we have been discussing in depth throughout this semester. Perspective is key. Take a look!

shutterbug.com As the revealing video below shows, portraits can be shaped by the photographer’s point of view rather than just by the subject being documented. Created by The Lab in conjunction with Canon Australia, the clip features six photographers, one portrait subject and an unexpected twist. The twist consi…

Just had to share these images from my portrait class!
