I'm a calm, steady presence with a thoughtful eye and just enough fun to keep things light. I bring intention to every part of the day while making sure nothing ever feels stiff or overproduced. I blend in seamlessly with your wedding party, become your grandma’s new best friend, and quietly buffer any awkward tension before you even notice it. The goal is simple: for you to feel comfortable, present, and genuinely enjoy your wedding day while I capture it all with care, ease, and a good read of the room.
I'm Alley! (Shocker, I know) Say hello to your newest third wheel.
Meet your michigan wedding photographer
Simply, I’m here for the photos —
and even more for the people behind them.
WHY I do this
I adore photography. There’s something joyful about freezing a moment in time — noticing how the light shows up, how an angle can shift a feeling, and turning something already beautiful into something even more so. That spark is what first pulled me in. But what’s kept me here is the people. Getting to meet couples, laugh with their families, and be welcomed into a room full of stories on such a meaningful day is pure joy. Showing up, connecting, and serving the people behind the moments is what makes this work feel so special to me.

Finishing a home project
Most wedding photographers come from backgrounds rooted in posed, controlled sessions like families or seniors. My path was different. I spent nearly a decade photographing sports — fast-moving, unpredictable, and entirely unscripted. That experience trained me to anticipate moments as they unfold, not after they happen. I think it gives me an edge on a wedding day, where the most meaningful moments are candid, fleeting, and impossible to recreate.
