“The pictures gave me chills and took me right back to the exact moment of each of them. You captured every last moment, detail, and person that we could have possibly asked for. Your work is incredible, your energy is like no other and I couldn't have possibly picked a better person to capture our day.”
How we go about documenting your legacy is completely your call. Do every session or just have me there on the big day. I’m not going to tell you what to do or anything… but as your legacy photographer, why not grab onto every chance to memorialize your loud and secret moments of love? I’m just sayingggg...
Engagement Session
Maybe I fly to you, maybe you meet me out west to capture the lovey-dovey-daze of “nothing beats forever with you”. You’ll get a feel for what it’s like being photographed by me. This is a low stakes, all fun situation.
Spoilers: time of your life, big fat giggle fest, awkwardness be damned, totally feeling yourself.
Boudoir Session
Meet me at my favorite hotel in Reno to get pampered within an inch of your life. Hair, makeup, snacks, whatever you want—it’s all included. We can get as spicy as you want with these photos, I’ll guide you through poses that celebrate how divinely perfect your body is.
Spoilers: girls doing girly shit, nerves kicked to the curb, dropping dead seeing how good the photos look.
Rehearsal Session
I’ll come join you and your guests for two hours to document all the “holy fuck”pre-wedding buzz! Eloping or not having a rehearsal? This session can be utilized for whatever the hell you want. Sunset hike, welcome bonfire, skinny dipping, literally whatevs.
Spoilers: perfectly cozy, heart-melting gratitude, intimate connections
Wedding Day

Spoilers: high off love, achy-smiley-cheeks, feeling at home, kisses on kisses on kisses, BLISS
Legacy Session
Sometime in the next five years you’ll go “Hey Ali, wanna hang out?” Say less, immediate yes. We’ll celebrate what your life looks like then. Whether you’re expecting, have a family, celebrating your
anniversary, or just still crushin’ hard on each other.
Spoilers: a lil’ nostalgic, invigorating, fulfilling, a good-ass time.
Guilty as charged baby.
You can’t wait to meet, DITTO FRIEND. Let’s get coffee in the Reno area or get a facetime call in the books. Tell me your life story, what's on your mind, and everything related to the wedding you’re planning.
Submit your contract and
deposit and we’re locked the fuck in.I’ll send you a guide to get you started and a list of vendors. Ask me anything, text me your worries, send me pics of your dogs—I’m here for it all.
Once we determine what sessions you want to do I’ll send over questionnaires to get the fine details of when, where, and your vision. We’ll have a kick ass time no matter what we shoot together!
We get serious about the
timeline. Let’s throw dusty traditions in the trash, incorporate the cool shit you want, and build in LOTS lots of time for you two to slow down and love on each other.
Your wedding day will be full of unforgettable moments and passing acts of love that light you up—my soul purpose is to make sure you’re able to enjoy those moments while I’m capturing them.
Your burning questions
Where are you located?
I live in Reno, Nevada but I am servin' up hot ass pics to all of Lake Tahoe + Northern California. I also LOVE to travel for my couples.
If we don’t want everything that’s included in the wedding package is it cheaper?
It's a take it or leave it situation – the price does not change. I only take on 7 couples per year so that I can give every single one of them my all and make their wedding photography experience super badass.
How many images are included?
I don't guarantee a set number, because it deeply depends on the events of the day. However, I typically deliver a minimum of 50 edited images for every hour of coverage.
What if we cancel/reschedule our date?
Listen, I operate as a human first no matter what. I want to do everything I can to shoot your wedding, and I don't care what it takes. I just ask for full communication when it comes to the rescheduling process so I can make sure I'm available for the new date/location. If you have to cancel your wedding altogether, I would hang onto the $500 retainer and refund you whatever you paid outside of that amount.
Do you help in the planning process?
I am good – and I mean painfully good, at internet research and scouting. I will be there, just a text or anemail or a FaceTime away for the entire planning process. I want to be the one you call to vent to when you need it, but also be a reliable resource throughout the planning! I've got hella advice.
Do you photograph proposals, families, seniors, etc.?
Since I offer so many shoots in my wedding package and I am a full time mom, there isn't a ton of space in my calendar for additional projects. For past couples, I will do everything I can to continue capturing all of your special moments. Reach out anyway and if I can't make it work, I'll be sure to refer you to the best of the best instead.
How do travel expenses work?
Travel is the only thing that is not included in my wedding package. I'd love to go anywhere with you: West Coast (outside of Tahoe region): $800 / For the Midwest, East Coast, & beyond: $1,300 / International travel: Let's chat about it! I REALLY want to create with you abroad!
How does payment work?
I have a handy dandy online system where I make invoices and contracts and payments can be made online. I require a $500 deposit and I set up multiple payments throughout our time planning together. The full amount must be paid 2 weeks before the wedding.
What’s your turnaround time?
You’ll get your rehearsal dinner + wedding sneaks in 1 week and the full gallery in 9 weeks. Engagement, boudoir, and legacy sessions take 5 weeks.
Will you photoshop us?
I will edit out blemishes, distractions in the background, and small things, but I don't do retouching in Photoshop. I capture the real shit, not the fake shit. I want you to look like yourself in the photos I deliver.
Do you still recommend hiring a day-of coordinator or wedding planner?
While I do help quite a bit outside of my photography scope, the planning assistance I offer is nowhere near as detailed as the work of a planner or day-of coordinator. Planners help balance ALL of your vendors. In most instances, I definitely recommend one, but if you're unsure, let's chat about it!
