hello,

I’m Allie! I’ve been a Chicago documentary wedding and lifestyle photographer since 2017! I capture the real moments with a fun and relaxed approach. I have the coolest job in the world and I’ve gotten to meet so many amazing people!

weddings

Weddings are indescribably fulfilling as a photographer. When I photograph a wedding, I am always after telling the full story of the day so you can look back on your photos and not only remember what happened, but also how you felt. As a wedding photographer, it is very important to me that I am a presence of support and positivity and also ensure the photo process is fun and relaxed so you have the best experience on your wedding day! 

lifestyle

I love capturing families and milestone events! You can view my whole portfolio of lifestyle sessions here.

reviews

  • "My wife and I worked with Allie for our wedding. We found her on Instagram and could not be happier with our experience. As an LGBTQ couple, we were nervous about finding wedding vendors who could help give us the wedding we imagined, but Allie did all of that and more. She is a friend, an artist, and a true joy to work with."

  • "I was lucky enough discover Allie working alongside her in the event industry, and I knew since the moment I saw her work she would be my wedding photographer. Photography-wise Allie's dark, moody, and cinematographic quality to the images she creates are surreal and magical. Personality-wise, Allie herself is the sweetest person in the world and an absolute joy to share our journey with. Can't recommend her highly enough!"

    Kim S

  • "Planning a wedding during COVID-19 brings on its own unique challenges, and Allie has helped us feel relaxed and reassured every step of the way. She was fun, relatable, engaging, inclusive, and chill. She reminded us of the beautiful parts of a celebration, and we are so lucky to have had Allie as a part of our joy."
