Past Kismet Couples

There’s something you should know about me…I adore people, I value friendships and I love my job. When you choose me (well, hopefully you choose me) to be your wedding photographer, you are gaining a friend as well. It makes my heart so happy to capture the rest of your story, not just your wedding day memories.

I started photography as a hobby, I never intended it to grow into a full time job. I began photographing children and babies because I adore kids. The truth is that I accidentally fell into wedding photography. You see, when I was a newbie in this field, I attended a very well known photography conference in Vegas. I remember attending a session about finding your audience and your niche. The advice from the presenter was to find one niche of photography and stick with it because it would be hard to be successful if you didn’t specialize in one type of photography. I left that classroom filled with confused thoughts. I didn’t know how I could pick just one thing to stick with and not get bored? I felt shooting one type of photography and only connecting with one type of client wasn’t for me.

Well, here I am. 11 years later and I can say that what I heard that day in the classroom was BS. At least for me, it wasn’t the right advice. My heart knew that once I made a connection with my clients that I’d want to see them again and again. This is more than just a job for me. It is about friendship and connections. Many of my #kismetcouples come back for maternity and newborn sessions and I am SO thrilled they do. I couldn’t imagine not being able to tell their full stories. There is so much more to a story than just your wedding day. Make sure you absolutely have those moments captured.

So thank you, to ALL of my clients, not just my wedding clients. So many of you are repeat clients and watching your families grow is part of me. It’s my passion, it fills my heart and I’m so grateful and humble you keep choosing me to capture your big and little moments. Thank you! You’ve allowed me to quit my 9-5 job and do what I love every single day.

xoxo,
Allison
