Hi there.

She spent time working on her personal fine art work for many years and in 2003 started her first wedding and portrait photography business in St. Louis, MO. Jill moved to Des Moines, IA in 2005 and has continued her wedding and portrait business along with her fine art photography. Jill currently has work displayed in and around the Des Moines area as well as work in personal collections around the world. Jill uses both medium format film cameras and digital formats to create her images. This is how the artist describes her work: “My work is a reflection of everyday life and places. I chose the medium of photography as a tool to capture the essence of the person or place. I create images to depict the subject as they are remembered in the mind. Not posed or unnatural, but as a window into the intimate world of the subject.” Jill Brown is a member of Professional Photographers of America.

Basteen Family Session | Des Moines Portrait Photographer

Date:  September 8, 2009
Location:  Waterworks Park, Des Moines, Iowa

Amanda is a fellow photographer here in Des Moines.  Last February she contacted me to see if I would be interested in doing a portrait session for her and her family.  uh... YEAH!

We finally got our calendars together and took family portraits at Waterworks Park.  If you've never been there, you really should.  It has tons of great spots for family portraits!

Thanks Amanda!  It was so nice to finally meet you and your family!

I really enjoyed viewing your photographs, Jill, especially the one with the little girl sitting on the lawn looking all grown up. Totally charming.
