I am so thankful that you are considering us as your wedding photography team! In our world, every wedding tells it's own story. We love learning about the two of you and hearing about what is most important to you. What your personal style is, how you knew she was the one, what he does to make you smile and what you are passionate about.
For us, this is where the magic is.
Knowing who you are and what you love most about one another and this beautiful world of ours helps us truly connect with you both personally and through our lens. It allows us to be intentional with every photo we take and tell your wedding story in a way that is true to you because it is created in celebration of you.
We'll work together before your wedding day to ensure that we know your wedding day vision like it was our own! Tucked inside your photo timeline will be plenty of backup plans as well as backup gear tucked in my camera bag.
From our decisions while styling your wedding details to the way we pose you for portraits, every move we make is done with great care for honoring your unique personalities, vision and love story.
On your wedding day, we'll bring a calming presence and a fun energy that will help you relax and feel comfortable so you look your best in your photos. We'll guide you through the process so you don't have to stress about what's happening next!
Hello there! We are Alison and Zachary, the creative minds and beating hearts behind Alison Mae Photography. Our journey is a love story of its own, and we are thrilled to share our passion for photography and storytelling with you.
As a team, we complement each other's strengths, creating a harmonious synergy that translates into the stunning imagery we produce. Alison brings her artistic vision and an eye for detail, while Zachary contributes technical precision and a knack for capturing the most fleeting emotions. Together, we form a powerhouse dedicated to making your wedding photography experience truly exceptional. (With a few laughs along the way.)
Alison is the voice behind all client communication and the lead photographer. Zachary is the second shooter of the team and spends his time away from weddings as a software developer. Our lives our spent browsing antique markets, dreaming up new travel plans which almost always lead us to Europe and spoiling our beloved pets, Willow, Nova and Clementine.
"After our initial phone call with Alison, I knew I had found our photographer! Alison took time to learn about us, and the vision we had for our wedding day. What I didn’t realize was all the things she would be doing in addition to taking the photos. Alison was the most valuable part of our wedding process."
Past Couple
I am endlessly inspired by the old world and the soft, romantic and thought provoking paintings of the impressionists and the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood.
This inspiration can be found through out the photographs I take and is woven into the value I place on truly connecting with you and finding ways to capture your unique spirit and love story in your wedding images in a refined, elegant way.
To capture outer beauty, we must look within.

Alison
I’m Alison - an old soul with a passion for timeless beauty. Worn out books, fine art paintings, soft pastel colors and European architecture inspire my work behind the lens.
When I’m not celebrating with joyful couples, you’ll find me traveling the world with my husband and second shooter, Zachary. Our favorite travels have included watching the sun set over Florence, Italy at Piazzale Michelangelo, dashing through the rain while clutching shopping bags along the streets of NYC and jumping in waterfalls in Hawaii. I love listening to Elton John and Taylor Swift while I clean the house. I instantly love every dog I see. (Especially my huskies, Willow and Nova) I have a bad habit of buying too many candles. I break for birds and wear my heart on my sleeve. I think there is beauty in letting our walls down and truly connecting with one another because life is short but so very rich.
I feel that I have the best job in the world. After all, wedding photography allows me to combine two things that I love most: genuine connection and timeless elegance. What could be better?
