Hello, I'm Alissa.
I’m a mom and photographer with a big, sappy heart for capturing the beauty in the everyday.

As a lifestyle family photographer and mom of four, I know how fast it all goes. My work is rooted in presence, connection, and honest storytelling — the kind that helps you remember what it felt like to be right there in the moment.

Whether in your home, outdoors, or along the sandy shores of Lake Michigan, I photograph families in a way that feels honest and easy, creating natural, candid family photos you’ll come back to again and again.

Let's be inbox besties

I send little notes to your inbox that feel like a warm chat with your best mom friend. You’ll get memory-keeping tips, real mom talk... oh, and maybe not-so-subtle reminders to get in the dang photos.


Not quite ready to book? That’s okay. This is a nice way to stay connected until the timing’s right.
