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 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.

Shields - McDole Family Session | Des Moines Family Photographer

Date:  November 14, 2009
Location:  Jester Park

I met Layna and Ray, along with their "almost-two" daughter, on a drizzly and cloudy day at Jester Park.  The rain managed to stay away the entire time we were photographing -good for the family and good for my camera! 

Miss "Almost-Two" was a typical little girl for her age.  Full of determination to do it the way SHE wanted to and fine by me!  :)  Although she was determined to not have her photo taken that day, I managed to sneak a few.  ;)

All and all it was a great day and a great session.

( ...AND... did I mention that Layna is 6 months pregnant!  Woohoo!  Congrats Layna and Ray!)

Thank you Layna and Ray for sharing part of your Saturday with me!
