Newton, IA Motherhood

You've come to the right place.

With me as your Iowa maternity and family photographer specializing in authentically documenting seasons of motherhood exactly how they are right now, just like these, you won't have to imagine a world where your kids are grown and don't have anything but one or two dusty, posed photos to look back on. 

If you're a mom in the Des Moines or Newton, Iowa area who loves the idea of a lifetime of old home videos, pictures with that little maternity bump, chasing your kids around the lake at sunset, film-inspired vibes, and maybe even some creative fashion- I think we might just become best friends. Click here to send me an inquiry so we can dream about a summer day with melting popsicles or a fall sunset with cozy sweaters together!!

Helping young, expecting Iowa moms take their motherhood back one photo at a time (in FRONT of the camera instead of behind it), is a gift I hope I can share for the rest of my life. You deserve to be a part of the documented memories too, not just to be the one documenting them.

Anna | Mom of one 

Thank you, Olivia, for these amazing photos! If you are on the lookout for a photographer, I 100% recommend Sodak Photography! She is absolutely amazing to work with and makes you feel so comfortable + confident in front of the camera!"

Absolutely obsessed with how these turned out!

Courtney |
Mom of two 

"She goes above + beyond to make sure you and your family are cozy and confident!! She makes you forget what you were even stressed about to begin with! The love and energy she brings to your session is unmatched. I absolutely hate having my picture taken and when I got my maternity pictures taken she took that all away!" 

I am in awe of our photographer

Olivia killed it again.

We are so thankful to have her for pictures but even more thankful for her love and friendship. If you're looking for someone who cares, takes her time, and is invested in her clients- Sodak Photography is definitely the go to."

LET'S MEET!!!

as a Newton, Iowa maternity and family photographer, I've built my business from the ground up entirely based on the fact that I'm a sucker for nostalgia. I'd give anything for just one more photo of my grandma laughing or seeing her in her prime as an incredible mom of four. Let's give our kids the photos we wish we had. Photos that document their childhood while also documenting YOUR motherhood. 

It is SO important to LOVE the style of your photographer's work.

My photo style is vintage &  goofy with a side of editorial

My approach

Follow me

Nice to meet you!
