I'm so happy you're here!
Hi, I’m Deo!
Pronounced Day-o! 🎶🎶🎶
(Yes, like the Banana Boat Song, and if you sing it, I might just dance just like in Beetlejuice.)
I’m a portrait photographer based right here in Iowa. My approach is simple and honest, with a creative touch that brings out real emotion and personality. Whether it’s a quiet moment, a good laugh, or something in between, I aim to capture the kind of images that feel genuine and timeless.
I’ll admit, I’m a little on the shy side, which is probably why you don’t see me marketing myself much. But I care deeply about the work I do and the people I work with. Every story matters to me, and I pour that into every session.
And if you’ve got a fun or creative idea in mind? I’m always up for it.
How do I book a photo session with you?
Here are your options to get started:
- Send me a message through text 641-640-7802
- Send me a message through the CONTACT page here on my website
- Send me a message on any of my social media (facebook and instagram)
I'll walk you through the next steps.
How long does it take to receive the final photos?
Turnaround time is usually no more than two weeks. If there’s ever a delay due to a busy season, I’ll communicate clearly and make sure you’re in the loop.
Can I order prints or albums through you?
At this time, I don’t offer prints or albums directly. Instead, I focus on providing digital services, like high-resolution downloads and personalized galleries.
The good news is that there are easy-to-use online ordering platforms like Mpix and Shutterfly that make it super simple for you to choose and order exactly what you want, whenever you want. Many clients appreciate this flexibility, as it lets you explore a wide range of printing options through trusted labs or vendors of your choice.
