Kismet Visuals & Co

We are so happy we chose Allison to photograph our wedding day. She captured every single emotion and detail from that day so beautifully. As many others have said, her photos are so timeless and we will cherish these photos she gave us for a lifetime. She made us feel so comfortable with her laid back personality but she knows how to get things done so efficiently and keep things moving on time! She was so helpful leading up to the wedding giving us tips to help us make our timeline perfect. We were also so impressed with how quickly the turnaround was! We got them back about two weeks after our wedding and that included a holiday weekend. Look no further- she's the best :)

Allison was wonderful from the beginning. I had been following her under her previous brand name and knew if I ever got married she had to be my photographer. When that time finally came, she shared some dates that she was available so I could coordinate when booking my venue. Our engagement pictures were great and really captured how much fun my husband and I have together at some of our Columbus favorites. Once COVID hit, Allison was helpful with rescheduling two additional times and was supportive even though she was also struggling with the difficulties many businesses were facing. We had a small legal ceremony Allison was not able to attend but she captured our first anniversary wedding celebration. For me, pictures are the most important vendor of the day and I’m so happy Allison was able to capture our happiness and love. The hardest part was picking the favorites to be printed, then the next hardest is the holiday card photo! Thank you so much for everything Allison!

Allison was so wonderful to work with- she let us have our day while getting the shots we wanted. She also was kind enough to drive an extra 10 minutes so I could take photographs with my grandmother who could not attend. Having professional shots with her on my big day means the world to me, and it shows the sort of person Allison is that she was willing to take the time. She also returned photos quickly, which we so appreciated.

Allison is an amazing photographer who is very responsive, organized, friendly and a pleasure to work with!! When I reached out to Allison after getting engaged she was very responsive and from what I had seen of her work I knew I wanted her for our engagement and wedding photos. Allison did an amazing job with our engagement photos and finding scenery in the areas we wanted as well as assisting us along the way and making us feel more comfortable. We were blown away with our engagement photos and so was everyone else! We had to work our way through postponing our large celebration for our wedding and Allison was so understanding and worked with us on figuring everything out. We ended up having Allison photograph our wedding in 2020 with only a handful of people and she did such an amazing job! Then in July 2021 we got the pleasure of having Allison photograph our wedding again for our vow renewal and celebration with all of our friends and family! She was so well organized and helped us figure out how long at locations and anything we needed. Everyone enjoyed working with her and we were so glad she was apart of our day and celebration! She blew us away yet again! We love our photos and everyone else loves them as well! It’s impossible to choose your favorites! She captured everything so beautifully and we cannot thank her enough. She did an amazing job and blew us away! We would recommend Allison to everyone for their weddings/ engagements/ anything! She does such an amazing job and we hope to work with her again in the future!

Allison is such a talented photographer. Her passion, eye for beauty and attention to detail make for the most gorgeous photos. Her images are timeless and speak for themselves. She is a joy to work with and will make you feel beautiful. I promise you she is worth every penny and more. Thank you so much for capturing our wedding Allison!

Allison is amazing! So easy to work with and worth every penny!! We loved all of our engagement photos and the sneak peeks of our wedding photos have been SO GOOD, I'm dying to get the rest of them back! My husband and I aren't big picture takers, but she helped us feel so comfortable through the whole process. If you need a wedding photographer in Columbus, hire Allison! We already can't wait to have her capture other big moments in our lives!

I highly recommend Kismet Visuals! Allison and her second shooter Alina did a fantastic job photographing our wedding on October 31, 2020. They spent 8 hours with us, at 3 different locations and captured each moment of our big day perfectly. Our church had some very strict guidelines due to COVID-19 as to where they could be during the ceremony and they handled it so well. All the photos turned out amazing, the quality, lighting, and style were exactly what we wanted. I love that Allison took so many detail shots during the day, not all photographers take the time to do this. I am especially obsessed with the portraits she took of my husband and me around the church and our reception venue. Allison is super professional, prompt, and a great communicator. She was an amazing leader on our wedding day arranging shoots with our family members and the wedding party. The day wouldn’t have been as smooth and stress-free as it was without her! She had our edited photos back to us within two weeks of our wedding, we were literally sitting on the beach during our honeymoon viewing our wedding photos. Now that we are officially a Kismet Couple, we cannot wait to have Allison take all of our family photos in the future. Thank you Kismet Visuals!

Allison was amazing from start to finish— Like most couples, the engagement photo session was our first time getting professional photos taken, we were nervous... 2 minutes with Allison and the nerves were gone and all we had was FUN! It was easy and fun, just like it should be :) Oh, and the photos... AMAZING. I still get compliments on them. Leading up to the wedding her communication was not only clear & always quick to reply— but boy was she easy to work with through rescheduling our wedding date because of COVID. And THEN booking a new venue. She was calm and so amenable. There was a 10 minute phone conversation of her reassuring me it would be a great wedding and that she would be there come rain or shine. How amazing is that? The wedding day was perfect , she was fun, professional and took so many wonderful pictures. Oh, and she knows how to put drunk groomsmen in their place! The photos are absolutely amazing, even if she weren’t the nicest people to work with, I’d still book her again just for her amazing work. Do yourself a favor and book her for your big day! You won’t regret it ! Sincerely, a very thankful bride :)

Allison was FANTASTIC! My husband and I had to navigate the ups and downs of three venues / plans changing for our COVID wedding, and Allison stood by us through it all. When the day finally came, she was the absolute best. She was funny, easy to work with, never rushed us or made things feel forced. She has shared three "sneak peaks" so far and each one is better than the last. Cannot recommend her enough. There is a reason she was voted Columbus's best!

Allison is so great to work with. She is very professional and responsive. I have a ton of amazing photos from my wedding day. Would highly recommend and plan to use her in the future for ongoing photo needs.

Allison is terrific! We cannot say enough great things about Allison and her work. Our engagement and wedding photos are perfect! In the beginning, we were least excited about having our photos taken throughout the wedding process. Instead, Allison made it fun and not awkward. We are so pleased with how all of our photos turned out! Allison and her second shooter captured it all and we will be forever grateful. Can't wait to get our printed photos and album! We will definitely be repeat customers in the future. p.s. we definitely recommend her selfie photo booth!!

Allison was amazing! She captured every detail of our wedding day perfectly. It was a rainy day so I was nervous about the pictures, but she was so thoughtful and came prepared with cute clear umbrellas and was able to pull off the most gorgeous photos! It can be awkward to have your picture taken, but Allison had an amazing way of making us feel comfortable. On top of being great at her job, she is beyond sweet and fun to work with! I cannot recommend Kismet Visuals enough! Thank you Allison for capturing these memories that we will cherish forever!

Allison is superb! As a wedding planner, it was so fun and exciting to finally get to work alongside her. Her work is great which is evident by looking at her site or social media, and her work ethic throughout is also fantastic. She made planning timeline super easy for both us and the client, and the day was captured perfectly. Thanks, Allison - we adore ya!

Allison is AMAZING! She was so easy to communicate with before the wedding and was very timely. She was so organized on our wedding day and had such great ideas for pictures. She didn’t mind jumping in a field to get some amazing pictures. We were running late due to hair and makeup and Allison kept me calm. She posted a sneak peak and we are obsessed. We can’t wait to see more pictures and would recommend Kismet Visuals to anyone. Thank you Allison for being an amazing part of our wedding day!

Allison is an amazing and very talented photographer. She is extremely organized, easy to work with and has a natural eye for detail! Her photos are absolutely stunning, beautiful and timeless with gorgeous lighting! She captured all the beauty of our wedding SO perfectly; the emotions, romance and our playful love! She is kind, friendly and professional in all that she does. Going through our wedding photos they tell a story of the best day of our lives; we relive the day. We love our photos and will treasure them forever. Her turnaround time is super quick. We were very impressed when we received all edited photos exactly two weeks from our wedding day (over 1000 photos)! She was accommodating and flexible throughout the entire process. We live out of state and had the wedding in Ohio; from start to finish, communicating with Allison was stress-free. Prior to the wedding we had only met with her once (as we had our engagement photos out of state) and felt completely comfortable with her and confident! She is very reputable and respected in the industry – and her positive energy shines. She kept everyone on track the day of with a detailed timeline to follow. We got married at The Oak Grove at Jorgensen Farms and she is very familiar with the venue. We had photos taken at sunset and she knew the picture-perfect spots that would capture the best lighting on us. TRULY MAGICAL FAIRYTALE PHOTOS! We highly recommend Allison, she met all of our expectations! We can’t wait to have her take more photos for us in the future!

Allison did such an amazing job! She captured everything we wanted and more. We got so many compliments on how our pictures turned out and she was incredibly easy to work with. She kept us moving on a perfect schedule where we could enjoy our evening with friends and family but pull us away at the right time to get the best shots! Highly recommend!

We had been referred to Kismet by close friends. Allison took our engagement pics and while we were super awkward at first (because we hate having our pictures taken) you wouldn’t see that in the photos. She helped us feel more natural and after a while we forgot she was there (in a good way). Our engagement photos were better than anticipated but our wedding photos... wow!!! Allison and Julia really captured the magic of the evening. We felt like they were friends hanging out and celebrating with us. Our families and friends felt comfortable and again, didn’t notice them (in a good way!). We just attended a wedding prior to our own where the photographer had everyone pause halfway down the aisle in order to pose for the pictures. In fact, the entire wedding was posed and re-posed. It felt fake and completely took away from the actual wedding. It was a photo shoot. Another wedding the photographer was so all over the place we nicknamed him “paparazzi.” He was up in the couples face during the ceremony! That was not the case with Kismet. Not only were their ideas creative but the talent of getting those amazing shots. I don’t know how they did it. I don’t know how they were able to capture not just photos but so many moments that night. You really can see the magic through their photos. It’s amazing.

Allison is amazing! Not only has she photographed our friends weddings but she hid in the bushes to capture Gene proposing to me! Allison is sure to capture each moment and every detail perfectly!

Allison is a true professional. Having worked as her assistant for a year, I got to see all of the behind the scenes that just proved why she's as good as she is. From the preparation leading up to the day, to the charging and prepping of camera equipment and batteries, she shows up ready for action! She maintains her composure when timelines run long, she makes beautiful location and posing suggestions, and she creates a memorable experience for the couple. Afterwards, she ensures your images are backed up from the back up and she is timely in returning galleries. She has also done family photos for my family, so I've been on both sides of her camera, and appreciate each side equally. Thank you Allison!

Kismet captured every emotion and moment felt on our wedding day. Even when it rained, the photographer took the most amazing pictures. With a large wedding party we were sometimes are hard to direct. I am very grateful for Kismet and their photographers. I can now look back at the most amazing day with the most amazing pictures!

Allison is such a sweetheart and did an amazing job on both our engagement and wedding photos. We were very nervous about feeling awkward during our engagement shoot, but Allison really put us at ease with her calming and fun personality. We had such a great time with her on the wedding day and the photos turned out absolutely beautiful. All of the poses she suggests are very natural and turned out great in the photos. She also has a very speedy turn around time and always quick to respond to emails. We definitely plan on contacting her in the future as we build our family.

We had Allison for our photographer at our wedding and she and her assistant Renee were absolutely amazing! They knew exactly how to make us feel comfortable. I knew just from looking at Allison's previous work that she was going to make our photos beautiful. It was so extremely windy for our wedding and looking at my pictures you can't even tell! I really don't know how they managed to capture the amazing shots they got, but we were more than thrilled with how everything turned out! She was also so quick on getting our pictures to us, and gave us so many pictures! We would definitely use Allison for any future photography we need and would highly recommend her to everyone!!

She was fantastic! She perfectly captured our tiny living room ceremony. We will enjoy the story she created through her photos forever. She is also warm and will make you feel totally comfortable on what can be a stressful day. I can't recommend her enough.

Allison is awesome. It was storming terribly before/during the ceremony, but she kept up calm and still took amazing photos. She understood our personalities and worked so well with us. She made the day run smoothly and ensured we got the photos that we wanted. Definitely recommend!!

Allison was not only our wedding photography, but a great friend too. She was amazing in every way. Helped so much during the planning, was so flexible when I changed my mind (constantly!) She did a wonderful job at the rehearsal dinner…. even better job at the wedding. She took charge and got all the shots we wanted in what was somewhat of a chaotic day! We highly recommend Studio127!
