wedding investment guide

Hi! I am so glad you are here, friend!

Just in case we haven’t been introduced, I’m Aliyah, the human behind the camera. I’ve been doing wedding photography for almost 3 years now with nearly 40 weddings under my belt. To learn more about me, check out my about me page where I share a little more about my process & philosophy behind my art.

My number one goal as a photographer, and as a human, has been to carry peace into every atmosphere I enter. I want to bring peace to your planning process. I want to bring peace to your wedding day. I believe the simple, natural moments are the ones to treasure.

Want to look at a complete wedding gallery to see just how relaxed & seamless things can be? I promise, your level of calm on the wedding day makes a big difference in the photos.

frequently asked questions

how important is a second shooter?

No matter how hard I try, I can’t possibly be in two places at once. A second shooter provides added security for your wedding photos to be captured. Overall, the day can go much more smoothly and becomes more efficient when there is not just one, but two professional photographers present.

While a second shooter is not a necessity, it is super helpful to have one present and offers you a larger opportunity for more candid, sweet memories!

what is included in an engagement session?

Engagement sessions are tons of fun! It gives us a chance to meet each other before the wedding, which leads to everyone being far more comfortable on the day of the wedding. My engagement sessions are usually about an hour in length, and you’ll come out of it with 50+ digital images with print & download permissions. When booked separately, engagement sessions are $200, but when booked as an add-on to a wedding package, they are $100. They are also included in some of the wedding packages because I just love working with couples for portraits so much!

We choose a location that fits with your vibe as a couple (i.e. woodsy, urban, sunset wildflowers...) and you both can enjoy being together while I capture the magic of your love. Forget stiff, awkward poses; engagement sessions are full of life! Don’t believe me? Check out this real-life session of John & Cassidy!
