Elizabeth Allen Photography is a wedding photographer located in Pekin, IL. After 6 years, over 40 weddings, and going through the process of being a bride myself, stress-free wedding days have become my ultimate goal.
You deserve a wedding photographer who is going to capture more than stiff poses and awkward smiles. When you look back at your wedding gallery over the years, I want you to remember how every moment of your big day felt. I love documenting those in-between moments and extra details that might go unnoticed.
It's also my mission to ensure that your wedding photos represent who you are as a couple. Through a combination of intimate posing and fun prompts that will produce candid moments, your wedding gallery will be filled with photos that showcase your comfort with each other.
I operate using a style that blends artistic, modern, classic, and documentary approaches, resulting in a diverse collection of imagery to look back on. I also offer a range of services designed with your needs and budget in mind. My most comprehensive package includes timeline planning assistance, 8 hours of coverage on the day, and more than 400 images delivered in an online gallery with print release. An engagement session is also included, ensuring every moment of your love story is beautifully captured.
Most importantly, if you're looking for a photographer who will be more than just a vendor but also a friend, your search is over!

Elizabeth Allen Photography
Specializing in modern, romantic photos, my photography is about so much more than just taking a photo. It's about capturing moments and feelings that can be relived for years to come. I'll be the one to see the things you don't, from the joy on your faces to the in-between moments. The day will go by quickly, and my photos will allow you to reminisce on the entire experience. Located in Pekin, Illinois, I'm a wife and mother who understands how important it is to choose the right photographer. Fun fact: I'm still making edits to my own wedding photos 7 years later because of details that were missed. Because of this, I'm determined to make sure that there isn't a missed hair, smeared makeup, or wardrobe malfunction that is missed when I'm behind the camera.

Once we found Liz, and we did our engagement shoot we were immediately satisfied customers! However, after our wedding we were completely BLOWN AWAY!!! She is amazing to work with, and makes everyone she’s around feel so comfortable! Our wedding, and wedding parties were pretty large, and she managed everything incredibly. She doesn’t miss the details! She’s still capturing our growing family to this day. We LOVE Liz!

Liz was the perfect person to photograph both our engagement and wedding! She captured our relationship and personalities perfectly in our engagement session, focusing on little details and memories that made our relationship special. As we approached our wedding, Liz worked with us to craft our timeline, plan our photos, and ease any anxieties of the day related to capturing our family, bridal party, and candid moments. The day was a hot one and Liz and her team were such troopers! They encouraged us, cheered us on, fixed us up, and were there throughout the whole day - not missing a single beat through the scorching heat. What a wonderful team to support us! Afterwards, we had previews and then our whole gallery in such a timely manner. I really cannot recommend Elizabeth Allen Photography enough! Truly top notch and we had the best experience with her!!
