About
Photography is more than top of the line equipment and a knowledge of how to operate it, although I have both of those. And it's more than posing and herding cats, although I can do both of those. A real portrait and event photographer must know how to read people and understand them. I love people and storytelling, and I can quickly read the people I'm photographing. This helps me to bring out their real personality and tell their stories with authenticity. This is also something you can't learn in school, but it's the most important thing in photography besides "the eye."
I like the experience of meeting new people. Also, by nature of the job I really have to think on my feet to get the best shots and make sure the camera actually captures the subject, and this is a challenge I enjoy.

Allison is the best! We hired her to take photos at my sister's 70s-themed bachelorette party. Allison did a fantastic job. She is really laid-back and put everyone at ease and inspired them to loosen up, be silly and have fun. She is very good at going with the flow and feeling the vibe of the group and offering up ideas and suggestions at just the right moment. Sometimes I forgot she was there in a professional capacity; she just fit in really well with the guests. She made it a fun, lighthearted experience, which was just what we wanted. And, she captured some fabulous photographs, did a great job editing them and have us lots of options.

It was amazing working with Allison for my senior photos. She's easy to be yourself around which makes for great pictures. She knows good spots for good shots which helped a lot. Her prices are reasonable and it was very fun and unique being photographed by her.

Allison works hard and is tons of fun! We have used her for both wedding and baby photos, she is incredibly talented and has so many creative ideas. Not to mention she doesn't drain your bank account, her prices are very reasonable. I feel like she will bend over backwards to make your pictures what you want!

Allison is an amazing photographer, and I highly recommend her for any special occasion. We first worked with her for our engagement pictures, which she was willing to do out in the middle of the ocean on a sailboat! Our engagement pictures turned out incredible, so we also had her do our wedding photos. Allison has the awesome ability to capture the natural joy of not only us getting married, but also the enjoyment of all of our friends and family throughout the day. Our wedding pictures turned out better than we could have imagined! She provided us with a variety of pictures from the traditional shots to creative and beautiful artistic shots. We are so happy that we hired Allison to be our photographer on such a special and important day!!

Allison was so amazing to work with, she photographic my wedding day, I was a pretty laid back bride and didn't have too many ideas to bring to the table as far as specific pictures i wanted. She was so awesome with her creativity and at getting the wedding party and family to interact and feel comfortable for the pictures. I was absolutely blown away by her talent and more than satisfied with the one of a kind pictures she captured of our special day!
