My mission is to create magic by capturing moments in time! I aim to deliver photos that you can look back on and think "wow we look good AF but also so dang happy".

Hi, I'm Alyssa, your go-to Socal/HI photog

Grown in VA, I'm pursuing my passion for capturing true connections through wedding photography. My love for beaches and adventure brought me to Hawaii and SoCal, where I've found a home base!

On my free time, you can often find me cozying up with my kindle in hand, taking pictures with friends, or working out. I love to explore while thinking of my next meal and ever since moving to CA, its one of my new favorite weekend hobbies. Those experiences eventually fade and I feel like photos will bring back those memories! Its one of the main reasons I've stuck with photography and WHY I've niched down to couples: Time with loved ones especially go so fast!

"All I wanted was somebody to capture some of the special moments, and what I got was some body not only to snap those shots, but who also added so much fun, and joy to the moments themselves."
