I love being a wedding photographer and I really feel that I have found what I am meant to do. Each of my clients have a special place in my heart and that helps me provide an excellent service to you! But don’t take it from me, see what some of my past clients have to say!


Meghan + Jeff

“From my first conversation with Alison, I knew that she had to be our wedding photographer! I quickly knew I loved her, and then I saw her photography. Stunning, real, beautiful. Those are just a few of the words that come to mind. Throughout the wedding planning process, Alison was there for any question we had. On our wedding day, Alison and her team were truly amazing. They spent the entire day with us. From hair and makeup 35 minutes away early in the morning, to the sparkler send off at the venue, and everything in between. Through her artistic nature and loving personality, Alison captures the raw emotion and happiness of a wedding day; what more could you ask for? We are so excited to see all of our pictures, as the sneak peeks she sent us have us on the edges of our seats! Alison is truly an artist, and I am so lucky to now be able to call her my friend as well as our wedding photographer! Your wedding photographer is perhaps the most important vendor you will hire, and I could not recommend Alison and her team at Alison Mae Photography enough!”  – Meghan G.


Stephanie + Adam

“Wow. There are truly not enough words in the world to describe how amazing Ali was through this entire wedding process! If I could give her all the stars in the sky, I would!! Her professionalism and enthusiasm were unmatched and she was not only our photographer, but our supporter as well. Besides her incredible work behind the camera, Ali was excellent at wrangling in our family and our crazy wedding party for all the pictures I wanted on my special day. Her team of second shooter, Megan, and her husband/assistant, Zach, were all incredible at making our day extra special and gave us so many wonderful laughs along the way! I cannot recommend Ali enough for capturing our love story and telling it so beautifully through her lens!” – Stephanie R.


Amanda + Paul

“Alison was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer and I will recommend her to anyone and everyone I meet. Throughout the planning process she made me feel like I was her only client and I’m glad that by the time our wedding came we were also friends. She is truly talented and has a knack for putting her subjects at ease. In fact, she and her husband/assistant Zach blended in so well at the reception that my mother in law asked if Alison was a cousin we’d asked to be our photographer! She was amazing, and I can’t recommend her highly enough.” – Amanda E.
