The best way to have an amazing wedding experience is to make sure everyone is on the same page. So before anything is made official I always make sure to have a conversation with you.
I love hearing how you met, what your dreams are for your wedding, and what you are most excited about on your wedding day!
I also want to get to know you (and let you get to know me!) because I’m the vendor who is with you most of the day. (Which means we better like each other just a bit 😉)
This whole process let’s us know if we’ll be the right fit for eachother.

I’m here to help you know what to wear for your engagement session, throw out some vendor referrals, and help you make sure your timeline is photography friendly!
Even if you have a wedding planner I’m here to make sure the photography side is taken care of.
Being in this industry means I’ve learned a lot about weddings (and been to a lot of weddings) so I’m happy to share everything I know.
If you are eloping then I want to give any advice on locations, time of day, and timeline suggestions!

Engagement sessions are included in all of my full day wedding collections because I believe they are so so so important! It’s your chance to get in-front of the camera with no pressure.
Engagement sessions can done anytime before the wedding. Whether that’s right after the proposal or right before the wedding is up to you!
I help you plan the session based on the “look” you are after. That could be a preppy city session, a causal country look, or a cozy home session. The possibilities are endless!

Before your wedding we’ll start talking wedding day timeline, family formal groups, and any other wedding details you want me to know.
Details can be discussed at any point in the planning process, just reach out and let me know!

Your big day is finally here! All you have to do is get married, we do all the work!

Your photos will be delivered three weeks after your wedding via an online gallery.
If the collection you’ve chosen comes with an album that will be delivered as well. If you have not chosen to create an album, we can send information on how to get that process started.

An elopement usually has a very limited guest list. While an elopement can take place at a courthouse, you can elope anywhere!
This collection covers small intimate elopements in the city. Elopements are priced by the hour starting at $450 an hour.
You can add and create an elopement experience that fits your exact needs! Additional al a carte options can be found below.

Adventurous Elopements

The Engagement Shoot
All of my full day wedding collections include a complimentary engagement session. Why? Because I’ve found it helps couples so much on the wedding day!
With an engagement session you get to practice being in-front of the camera in a relaxed setting and get tons of beautiful couples pictures!
On the wedding day we usually only have 30 minutes for portraits. With engagement sessions you get even more portraits of you two looking cute!

Heirloom Wedding Albums
Albums can be a tangible way to show off your photos!
I offer many different album options including linen, leather, parent albums, and much more. Collection one comes with an 8×8 Album, but an album can be enhanced or added to any collection.
“I’m only sad our time together is done!”
Kind words from past AJP Brides
“Alyssa and her team were my favorite vendor I had at my wedding! She was so easy to work with, made my camera shy husband feel very comfortable, was totally on board with my desire to include my cats in my day. It was cold and POURING rain on my wedding day and she still managed to make my wedding pictures look like it was beautiful and sunny!”
“We had a blast with Alyssa! Would recommend to anyone (even if they didn’t ask!)”
Kind words from past AJP Brides
“Alyssa is great! We had so much fun during our engagement session and she did such a great job directing us on what to do and editing the pictures! We absolutely love our photos! She even helped us choose our location since we we coming from out of state and she chose such beautiful locations!”
“She helped us brainstorm ideas on where to do our photos and gave us a list of ideas”
Kind words from past AJP Brides
“We were able to just show up that day and she coached us on poses; she delivered our photos on-time (they were beautiful and we got dozens of them); and she even sent a sweet bridal care package to me after all was said and done! If you want a photographer who really cares about your special day and is just a genuinely great person to work with, choose Alyssa. :)”
FAQ
How many photos are typically delivered and can we print photos ourselves?
I typically deliver between 500-900 photos for weddings starting at 6 hours (the general rule is the more hours I am there and shooting the more photos you get).
And yes! You have a print release that allows you to print wherever you’d like. However I do offer high quality printing options right from your gallery if you would like to use that.
