Allie was absolutely incredible to work with! She did our engagement photos on short notice, and was wonderful for the wedding! As an out of state bride, I was so much more relaxed...
knowing I could count on her! She is also incredibly fast! We not only got all of photos done with plenty of time to relax before our wedding, but we also received all of our photos the Thursday after our Saturday wedding which is quite literally unheard of. She is the so nice and I really felt like she was looking out for me on my wedding day. She got all the shots we wanted and more. A truly talented photographer!
We also got the photo booth add on which I highly recommend! It was the perfect favor for our guests and we got to keep a copy of all the photos too!

and made the days feel so comfortable and fun! She helped the fay move smoothly and basically acted like our second wedding planner- when I wanted the dance floor lights lower she went and figured it out immediately! When my idea for a group picture got ruined by rain she pivoted quick and helped me with a new plan! She also had an incredibly fast turnaround time with the pictures coming out so incredible! We would absolutely recommend her and her team to any brides!

sition! Allie made the photos fun and relaxed, and we didn't feel rushed or overwhelmed. We are so excited with how our photos turned out, and we received the fully-edited album of nearly 600 photos only five days after our wedding. Allie made this process so fun and easy from start to finish, and the quality of her photos is top-notch. She truly captured the happiness that we felt during our wedding weekend!

Allie did the photography for our engagement shoot and wedding! Words cannot explain and describe how happy and overjoyed my husband and I were. Allie and Stephanie (videographer) ...
were so easy to work with. My husband can be camera shy and doesn’t like taking pictures. Allie made us both so comfortable and got my husband to smile and laugh. She was even able to get our dogs to sit and look at the camera! We also chose the photobooth for our wedding and it was a totally hit with our guests! We loved getting a photo album to look back at everyone's pictures and notes.
Allie is quick to respond and answers any and every question you might have. She walked us through everything and what to expect. I sent her my inspiration board and she made sure to get as many as possible that I saved. The turnaround time for receiving our photos were so quick! We received our engagement photos the next day and our wedding photos within 5 days. The poses felt so natural and she picked out the perfect spots to capture such beautiful moments.
I will continue to use Allie for all of my future life moments! I completely recommend using her for your wedding; you will not be disappointed!

Allie was such a joy to work with. Part of her wedding package included an engagement shoot, which she let us choose the date and location for. She was prompt for all appointments,...
quick to respond to emails or questions, and has a wonderfully bubbly personality that made her a joy to be around. She utilized a second shooter, who worked with her on our wedding day to make sure nothing got missed. She also was very quick on the turnaround for edited photos (we had them back in just a couple of weeks), and allows for all photos to be printed or otherwise used in whatever manner you wish (some photographers make you pay extra for printing rights). I 100% recommend!

y open with every question I asked, and I asked a lot! I loved the style of her pictures when I booked her, but when our engagement pictures came out great, I knew our wedding pictures were going to be perfect. And they are! I didn’t dream we’d look so good in our pictures and I’m thrilled with how they turned out. I would love to work with Allie again in the future. Thank you so much!

our wedding! We received so many compliments on our pictures. I did a lot of research on photographers before choosing Allie, and her prices were lower than other photographers with similar quality (including a second shooter). I highly recommend Allie for your wedding/engagement photography!

made us feel so comfortable! On our wedding day she went above and beyond to get the perfect shots! Allie and her assistant never made us feel rushed and were more than willing to capture shots that we requested! Another great thing about booking Allie is that you have all the access to your photos from her website! I can't thank her and her assistant enough for capturing our day so beautifully!

thern Indiana) and she helped us pick out locations. Both locations were beautiful, and the pictures turned out better than we could've imagined! And she got the photos back to us very fast! I normally don't like having my picture taken, but she made us feel comfortable. She is great about helping you pose if you need it and made sure we had a great time. Posing for photos can get monotonous fast, but Allie kept it fun for us! We also loved all the pictures from the photo booth at our reception!
