a note from my heart
i have always been a romantasizer, a daydreamer, and a feeler. i am someone who is very in touch with their emotions. i experience the world through feeling which fuels my soul. a lot of my art is inspired by my passion for preservation, nostalgia, the natural landscape, and couples in love.
outside of my job, you’d probably find me thrifting, laying in bed day dreaming, doing something crafty with my hands, spending time with my partner and our two cats, car camping in my grandma’s 2002 subaru, collecting national park vintage postcards, watching anything directed by wes anderson or hayo miyasaki, modeling for styled shoots, listening to indie music, or eating burritos. i also love anything and everything to do with film photography.

“from start to finish, our experience working with alison was an absolute delight. from the moment we met, it was clear that she not was only passionate about her craft but also genuinely excited to explore the beauty of glacier national park with us. her easygoing demeanor put us at ease which created an atmosphere of collaboration and creativity. her familiarity with the park allowed us to explore hidden gems, resulting in photographs that felt like undiscovered treasures."
