Hi there! I am so excited to meet you!

My name is Brooke and I am a portrait and wedding photographer in Davenport, Iowa.

I'm an almost 30 year old Aquarius and I am all about having fun in life and making the most out of every moment. I love the magic that comes with being extremely present and grateful for the little things!

I began my journey with photography 12 years ago after the loss of my son, Maddox. He lived for 4 bittersweet months before his congenital heart condition caused him to pass away. After I lost him, I suddenly realized that all I had left of him were photos. I started taking as many photos as I could of my own family. When I came to the conclusion that I loved photography, I invested in online photography and posing education, professional camera equipment and set out on a mission to capture beautiful memories for families.

My style of photography is vibrant, romantic and story-telling. I love to give posing guidance and use gentle prompts that lead to natural interaction and emotion. I enjoy being silly with my clients and my personality is guaranteed to get you and your family comfortable, truly smiling and laughing! I am SO passionate about what I do and being someone who has always felt awkward having their photo taken, I really go the extra mile in making sure that my clients look amazing and LOVE every photo that they receive from me.

In Loving Memory of Maddox David Rodriguez

Brooke did my engagement session this summer (she will be photographing my wedding next year as well) and did absolutely amazing! She was so easy to work with and knew exactly how to help us with posing while also making us feel real and in the moment. She had a quick turn around time with getting our photos edited and returned to us despite how busy she was! I highly recommend working with Brooke and letting her capture all your special moments.
