Hi, I’m Allison. I like to take photos.
I’m a thirty-something millennial/elder emo kid/full time third wheel. I’m a Leo AND a Gryffindor - double lion. My love language is sarcasm. I laugh A LOT, often at myself. I chase sunsets and full moons as frequently as possible. 35mm film will alway be my first love. I was born in Ohio but I was made for the beach, and honestly, exploring this whole big wide world. Between weddings, I’m mostly traveling, catching live shows at Greenfield Lake (best venue ever and you’ll never convince me otherwise), and hanging with my very sassy Samoyed - Luna. If you don’t know that dog breed I promise you should google it. And yes, I did name her after Luna Lovegood.
“When people look at my pictures I want them to feel the way they do when they want to read a line of a poem twice.”
Documenting love in all of its badass & glittery glory.
There was a time we picked up a camera to remember what it felt like, not to convince everyone it was flawless. I want to preserve moments in time authentically, imperfectly, and artistically. I want your wedding photographs to bring you back to this moment, what it REALLY felt like, for years to come. I come from a background in film photography, which I went to college for and got my fine art degree in. I love film quality, the truthfulness behind it, and photographs that you can FEEL. I want our work together to feel effortless and the best place for you to be yourselves, so that your photos really look and feel like YOU. No two wedding days are the same. Let’s make some art together.
