My name is Allison and I really started my photography journey as a hobbyist in 2018. When I turned 15 my mom lent me a nicer camera that she had but never used. First glance I was overwhelmed and just pressed buttons and hoped for the best. Fast forward a few years and I took a photography class in high school and I fell in love and learned to truly appreciate all that a camera, the photos, and the photographer have to offer.
As your photographer, I strive to capture what matters to you most. Whether it be proposal/engagements, maternity, couples, families, or just some pictures to support your self love journey. I love it ALL! I aspire to tell your story the way YOU want it told. Every step of my photography process is personalized to who you are and I will work closely with you and guide you through the entire process.
Hi there!
Meet Allison
Do you feel like it may be a little awkward taking pictures and posing in front of someone you don't really know?
Yeah me too. I promise you're not alone.
So here is a little bit about me!
I believe the key to capturing authentic, meaningful moments lies in making you feel truly at ease. When you’re comfortable, the real magic happens, and the most natural, heartfelt images come to life.
When I’m not behind the camera, I work as a home care nurse supervisor, supporting medically complex patients of all ages—from infants to adults. My patients face ICU-level challenges, yet they thrive at home with the help of dedicated home care nurses. My nursing background has taught me to approach each person with compassion, patience, and sincerity, which translates seamlessly into my photography.
Whether I’m capturing a smile, a shared laugh, or a quiet moment, my goal is to preserve what makes each moment truly meaningful!

THE STORY BEHIND THE SYMBOL
My logo is filled with personal meaning, inspired by elements that hold deep significance in my life...
The lily of the valley flowers symbolize humility and purity. A flower that grew in abundance around my childhood home, and after designing my logo, I discovered they were also my grandmother's favorite flowers—which I believed to be a sign, as she passed before I was born. The border of the logo mimics Polaroid film, reflecting my love for photography. Together, these elements create a symbol that embodies beauty, purity, humility, family, and memories—exactly what I strive to capture for my clients every day.
