Alyssa Michele Photo

BEST PHOTOGRAPHER EVER! Alyssa was super engaged regarding our wedding from the moment I filled out the form on her site. She met with us early on to understand what we wanted on our wedding day. One of the most important requirements for us was to have one bilingual photographer since we have both English and Spanish speaking family members. She spent time looking for someone to fill this spot and made sure that our request was met. We also wanted photos of everyone having fun at the wedding – not just posed photos of the bride and groom. She did an excellent job with this! The photos were such a good combination of posed bride & groom/family photos and more documentary style of friends and family having a great time. She was so engaged with our families and her personality really made it even more fun for the photos. It felt like she had known us for years! She also helped us pose in our photos, which is something I was nervous about as I am no Tyra Banks! She knows what looks good and she knows how to show/tell you what to do in a super time efficient manner. I can never thank her enough for giving us the photos that truly make me relive the best day our lives every time I look at them. I have shared them with so many of our friends and family and each time, they have the same response of how great it is to be able to have that day commemorated in such a special way. And I agree! If you choose Alyssa to be your photographer, she will be responsive & helpful, arrive ready to take photos, FUN!, and all around just the best photographer that you could ask for!!

I highly, HIGHLY recommend Alyssa to be your photographer. We hired her to do our elopement shoot in Yosemite National Park and couldn’t be happier. She is extremely knowledgeable of the park and offered a variety of locations to take photos. Not only did all of her pictures turn out amazing but she also provided us with an amazing day and memory that we will keep forever. When I think back to our elopement, I think about how much fun we had and how special it was. And it is all thanks to Alyssa! Alyssa is also very professional and easy to communicate with. She is very responsive and helps iron out any details that you might need help with. Working with Alyssa was stress-free and enjoyable!

Alyssa was such a blessing on our Elopement day. Who you trust to capture your wedding is a big decision. From the very beginning Alyssa took the time to get to know us and what was important to us. She gave great advice as we planned our elopement timeline, she was very responsive, and we never felt like we couldn’t reach out with questions. She also quickly provided an alternative site for our first look the day-of when our original plan wasn’t going to work. Hero! Alyssa has so much love for people and the outdoors and it shows in how she captures it - beautifully done. She made us feel at ease and gave direction when it was needed - so important and results in better photos. She genuinely cared about us having photos we will cherish for many years. Alyssa is a wonderful person and gifted professional. We love our gallery and would re-book in a heartbeat!

My husband and I eloped to Sequioa National Park in October 2023. We knew when we were planning our wedding that we wanted to have awesome wedding pictures that captured the natural beauty of the park and Alyssa delivered (I mean, check out the first picture – need I say more)! She was so easy to work with! After I booked, she set us up with an online account on her website where I could review our contract and make payments (and message her). We had two Zoom meetings. The first call she got to know us as a couple and what our goals for the wedding were. The second was closer to our wedding date and it was to review the detailed questionnaire she had sent us about our wedding day schedule. The questionnaire was so great because it put in a framework of what locations we’d like to shoot at given the amount of time we had booked. I really appreciated the organization. The day of our wedding could not have been better! She took her time to get the best shots and made sure we got the poses/locations we wanted before our session ended. A few days later she posted our photos to our online gallery. I can’t say enough good things about Alyssa! Our friends and family loved our pictures and my husband and I will cherish them forever!
