I dialed her number and held my breath. The introvert in me squirmed a little as I prepared my paper and pen, ready to take notes. Before I knew it, two.. maybe three hours had gone by and I had hardly written a thing. From the first few minutes of the phone call, I knew immediately that Meghan was an extraordinary person and even if I didn’t get to be her wedding photographer, I wanted to be her friend.

I am so excited to share McKenzie and Nathan’s wedding with you today! I’ve written about them a couple of times on the blog already, (see those here and here ) but in case you’re not familiar with this incredible couple – buckle up! I adore these two! And I’m not alone, their wedding day was filled with tons of love from their friends and family. It was such a sweet day and celebrating with them was the best!

Josh and Morgan both attended Ball State University – so it made perfect sense for them to have their wedding at the L.A. Pittenger Student Center on campus! And wow what a day it was!

Back in June Zach and I traveled to Chicago to meet up with Amanda and Paul for their engagement session! We actually started our day just outside of Chicago in a city called Naperville. The Naperville riverwalk is simply stunning!

Carlos and Taylor are an amazing couple! They met back in boarding school and became friends long before they started dating. But once they did – there was no looking back. From long distance to traveling thousands of miles to be together these two have a solid relationship that is rooted in friendship and centered around faith. It’s a beautiful thing!

One of the first unofficial orders of business for an engaged couple is to have engagement photos taken. While this isn’t required by any means, there is a lot of value in having this kind of session done!

I’m Alison. Photographer behind Alison Mae.
Recent work, travels, and things worth noting. Collected from life and work along the way.
When you photograph somewhere regularly, you start to learn its rhythms. Which paths are quieter. Where the light lingers. When a garden is at its peak. Which architectural lines look best in the morning versus the evening. We share all of that with our clients so they don’t have to think about it.
READ THE POST February has been quiet. And honestly, I’ve loved that.
It’s our slow season work-wise, which means the days feel a little less rushed and the small things have more room to show up. These are the ones that have been filling my cup lately.
READ THE POST They say photographs stop time. What they don’t tell you is that sometimes, a wedding photographer does too.
READ THE POST Children are such a meaningful part of wedding days. They bring curiosity, honesty, and a kind of unfiltered presence that adults tend to lose along the way. I love documenting those moments fully and thoughtfully.
READ THE POST Grace and Jeremy’s wedding day began at the Omni Severin Hotel on a sunny November afternoon in downtown Indianapolis. The Monumental Marathon had closed the streets, including the shuttle route to the church. So they walked instead. As New Yorkers, it felt completely normal. Suits, dress, city streets and all.
READ THE POST We’re Alison and Zach, a husband and wife Indianapolis wedding photography team drawn to estate and garden weddings and refined, light-filled venues who care deeply about how a wedding day feels. Alison brings calm guidance and a steady eye, while Zach is always close by, catching the moments that might otherwise slip past. Together, we show up ready to support you through the big emotions and the quiet ones, creating photographs that feel honest, natural, and beautifully real.
