What’s Up Des Moines?

Meet Earl & Doreen Harper of Harper Studios, Inc.

We recently met with local business owners of Harper Studios, Inc. – Earl and Doreen Harper. Earl and Doreen originally opened their studio in Georgetown in November of 1996. They recently relocated to Des Moines just two years ago, where they’ve been long time residents. Harper Studios, Inc reached an incredible milestone just this past November, celebrating 25 years. Most of their shooting for their clients is for both commercial and outdoor. One of the many ways they invest their talent and time back into the community is by capturing portraits of our local key leaders on their “I am DesMo” Facebook page. They keep busy with their horses and chickens and participating in the Des Moines Creek Park Run on Saturday mornings. Earl is currently in the process of starting up a full-service travel booking company of his own, “Hatch Adventure Travel,” driven by his passion for travel and fishing. We are lucky to have wonderful people like the Harpers be a part of our Des Moines community!
