ABOUT ALLISON

Photography and being behind the lens of a camera has been a central part of who I am for as long as I can remember. For more than 15 years I’ve captured everything from the details of flowers to special moments with family. What started as a personal passion laid the groundwork for my career as a documentary style photographer. Over the years I’ve run a blog that featured my own photography. That led me to freelance product photography for a range of brands. More recently, I’ve had the privilege of working behind the scenes for a world-class wedding photographer. What began as a hobby has seamlessly evolved through my education and professional experiences. For me, photography is more than just my career – it’s the epitome of a natural path.

ABOUT THE APPROACH

Being in front of a camera can be a lot of pressure. but if looking back on photos brings happiness, shouldn’t the experience of capturing those photos also be joyful?

My approach is to make you feel comfortable and excited from the very beginning. I do this by removing the unknowns and pressure. I will:

Take the guess work out of booking your photography session

Help you plan and prepare for your session so that you know it is tailored to you

Help you get comfortable in front of the camera and guide you through any posing

Make sure you know what to expect after your session

ABOUT THE STYLE

Romanticising life and making memories as beautiful as possible is what photography is about. My approach is rooted in capturing your genuine connections. This Turns your special moments into art that will tell your story and live on forever.

I do this through documentary style photography with a touch of editorial finesse. Documentary photography focuses on capturing real, candid moments. Editorial photography is posed, but not traditional. Blending these two styles will give you a gallery that authentically tells your story in an artful way.

Your photos should be beautiful and stylish, but they should also stand the test of time. My editing style is natural, true-to-life, and timeless while still being refined and artful. This will allow your photos to be as beautiful 20 years from now as they are today.
