ABOUT TRACY MARIE PHOTOGRAPHY
My passion for life inspires my photography, let me share my enthusiasm as you embark on this exciting time of your life.
Born and raised in the Midwest...
I am an Iowa native and resides in the Ankeny area. My passion started when film was a thing, and gradually grew with a hand-held point and shoot. I have a Degree in Photography; and I am always expanding my knowledge.
My work captures the simplicity and playfulness that are the cornerstones of her own life. I love to travel, meet new people, spend time with her grandchildren, and children; I have been influenced by many other photographers, locally, and not.
“I think my photography is a way to for me to embrace the joyful, spontaneous elements of daily life. With all going on today, I think we all need to slow down and grasp that which is honest, real, and personally satisfying.”
A few things to remember, every photographer is different and has different talents to offer. That's what makes us unique. I look forward to meeting you!
You’d go to the ends of the earth for your loved ones.
You deserve a photographer who would do the same.

What People Are Saying
Tracy is down to earth, easy going, flexible and willing to do whatever it takes to make her clients comfortable and happy. My daughter Brylie had her senior pictures taken this fall and they turned out to be everything she wanted and more! Simple, yet beautiful photos taken in downtown Des Moines and an area park to include our family's Golden Retriever. I will never use any other photographer, she is it!!

“Tracy is a natural light photographer and she took our family portraits and took on her first wedding with us! Working with three teenagers can be trying in your Patience and Tracy was nothing but fun, professional, and very attentive to my family! Later on that year, we hired Tracy to do our wedding photography. Again, Tracy was professional, and even calmed down a stressed bride! Our pictures turned out beautifully, even in the dark room of our wedding venue. Tracy took the time to understand our needs and budget”

Tracy you did an amazing job capturing our love for each other. You took a risk with photographing your first wedding and I will say, it was a risk worth taking! You were so professional and even offered your support in times of stress throughout the process! We couldn’t have asked for a better person to share in our special day, than you! P.s. our pictures already came back and they turned out amazing! Such wonderful memories to cherish. You couldn’t have said it any better- it was a magical day for our family.

Tracy did a great job for us. She was very flexible and friendly and listened to what Gia wanted and also gave us good recommendations for her high school graduation pictures. Was a great experience and that includes having to reschedule due to rain, twice! She made sure we were satisfied at all times and the pictures look great.
