ART CENTER

The Art Center is a hidden local gem where art, architecture, and nature meet in the most beautiful way, especially in the fall. As the leaves begin to turn, the surrounding trees burst into warm shades of gold, amber, and crimson, adding a stunning seasonal touch to every photo. The Art Center’s blend of modern architecture, peaceful sculpture gardens, and winding paths creates a serene, elevated backdrop that feels both creative and intimate.

BOOK YOUR SESSION WITH WHITNEY
 

WHITNEY WARNE

Whitney specializes in creating stunning headshots and family photos for every single person who steps in front of the camera, as well as inspiring and training the next generation of Ivory House photographers.

Whitney brings years of photographic experience and training to the DSM's community. Her passion for photography started at Johnston High School, transferred itself into a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Photography at University of Iowa, and then again to a Masters in Photography from RIT. While her education was vital, Whitney credits her passion for small business to the amazing photographer/owners who mentored and employed her throughout the years. It's this spirit of generosity Whitney seeks to pass on as she builds Ivory House's team of talented photographers.
