Hi, I’m Alison Galloway—lead photographer and owner of Alison Shane Photography, based in Carson City, NV! I’ve been behind the camera for nearly 10 years, capturing love, laughter, and real-life moments that last a lifetime. I’m based in Carson City, NV, serving Reno, Lake Tahoe, and beyond. I'm a mom of four, coffee-fueled, Disney-loving, and a Ravenclaw. I started this journey with my late mother-in-law, who inspired me to pursue photography. Today, I shoot in her memory—creating joyful, heartfelt images for every story I tell.
My approach to photography is rooted in genuine connection and storytelling. I believe the most powerful images come from real, unscripted moments—not stiff poses or forced smiles. I create a relaxed atmosphere where you feel comfortable being your true selves. From quiet glances to belly laughs and tearful “I do’s,” I’m there to capture the honest, in-between moments. My style is joyful, natural, and heartfelt—focused on memories that truly last a lifetime.

Working with Alison was one of the best decisions we made while we were planning our wedding. She was friendly, easy to work with, and most importantly she took excellent photos! S...
he did our engagement session and wedding and always went above and beyond. She spend extra time with us during our engagement shoot because she was so excited about the pictures she was taking. She was always very responsive and organized during our planning process. I think something that sets her apart is that she is so nice and fun to be around and that really makes a big difference since you spend a lot of time with your wedding photographer. Her prices are amazing for the quality of her work! if you hire Alison you won't be disappointed!

Honestly, stop your search now and just hire Allison. She's as sweet as she is talented! She's not only good at what she does but she actually CARES about you. She made us feel lik...
e her only clients, even though we most definitely weren't, because she made us feel like a priority. She responds to my questions VERY quickly and doesn't mind my difficult requests. The photographer was the most important part of my wedding for me (yes, even more than the dress but no, not more than the spouse) and Allison absolutely NAILED. IT. You won't regret hiring her, I can promise you that. Her prices are the best around for the quality and care that you get.
