Amy Doerring Photography bio picture
  • Welcome to my blog, a look into my he'art' and soul. Online you can find me here, in real life, I own a portrait studio in Newton, Iowa. My tag line is 'still photography ~ moving images.' I hope that something you see here will move you beyond the still.

    The picture on the left, I am in the middle with my two sisters. The middle child, yes that describes me, lol.

  • Scheduling Notes:

    We are currently booking for families and children in September and October. Seniors are currently booking for the Summer of 2012, those who will graduate in May 2013.

    Newborns are exactly that, new! We photograph them in the first days of life so schedule well before you are due and we'll make sure that we get that sweet sleepy new look.

    Please schedule by calling the studio at 641-792-6631. To better define your needs, we find voice communication best when scheduling

Nick + Karin

I met Karin on nearly my first date with Bret.  She was 2 or 3 and the cutest thing ever, seriously : )  When I started learning photography, Karin was my model many times!   This time, she was a fiance and brought Nick along!   Nick has the best Boston accent and I will never tire hearing him say her name.  Congratulations Nick and Karin, we can’t wait for the wedding!

Cadence ~ She is 4!

She is full of personality and expression, as always!!  We photographed at her grandpa’s farm in with the cows again….I love being there, playing where her momma played!  I have some old pictures at the end because it is fun to see what 4 years really means!

Chelsea ~ 2013 Senior Portraits ~ Pella, Iowa

The light was magical the day of Chelsea’s session, I need to pray for this light every single day!!  Chelsea’s mom, niece and sister came along for her shoot day.  I have to admit, I kinda like a crowd : )  Her nieice is adorable and the center of their lives.  She certainly found a way to get in the pictures!!!
In Chelsea’s words…
My guilty pleasure: jamming out to music in my car
Something I am known for:my smile
I’m addicted to chips and queso!
Post Graduation plans: nursing…maybe a doctor eventually
Best movie I’ve ever seen: The Notebook and Pitch Perfect

Heather ~ 2013 SE Polk Senior

Remember those terribly hot days last summer?  This was one of them.  That isn’t what I remember though…I remember her eyelashes, her sweet little smile, her “yes I’ll do that” and when the light met her eyes and my camera giggled!!!  Heather planned ahead and practiced what her hand would say.  I loved that!!!

Here is a bit about Heather in her words!

My guilty pleasure: one direction! I love them!!!

Something that is beautiful: summer weather.

Something I am known for: my freakishly long eyelashes lol!

Something I must have: my curling iron!!

Dinner with three people: snooki, Taylor swift, and Ashton kutcher

What is playing right now: Mumford and sons!

I’m addicted to: painting my nails

Post graduation plans: going to get my cosmetology and nail technician licenses

Best movie I’ve ever seen: Burlesque!

Rachel and Brooke

I have been photographing Rachel since she was a baby and Brooke even earlier in her sweet life.  The cool thing, they have never lived in Iowa.  When I heard they would be moving from Omaha to Atlanta, I thought my days with them were over, nope.   I’ve still gotten to enjoy them on while they were ‘home’ for Grandma’s house for all these years.  They make me so happy!!!  The two black and whites at the end are old and make me smile.
