Here are some of my favorite images from my recent senior session with Carly Van Hook. She was such a joy to work with! And she brought along the best assistants ever to help out! ;) Congratulations Carly! I wish you nothing but the best for your future!
I don’t know why it has taken me so long to blog this wedding. I’m finally forcing myself to share it! December 1st ended up being the perfect day for a wedding in Laguna Beach! (Only in California) ;) I remember falling in love with every single image on the back of my camera during this wedding. Courtney & Travis looked absolutely stunning!! I’m so glad I got the opportunity to be a part of this special day along side Jessica Warhol. Congratulation Mr. & Mrs. Gmeiner!
Wonderful photos!
Wow! Wonderful job! These images are stunning!
Beautiful!
Just a beautiful job! Dying over that dress <3.
Today is the day!!! Baby Brooklyn is about to enter into the world!!
She is going to have the best parents & big brother! I can’t wait to capture their faces once they see their little girl for the first time.
Please keep Christina & the arrival of baby Brooklyn in your prayers for the next few hours.
Off to the hospital I go! :)
HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!
I hope everyone is having a great day full of love! I spent all afternoon reading the entries for my contest & have put so much thought into my decision. It honestly was the hardest decision of my life! I thought taking control this year would make things easier but I was soooo wrong! I wish I could let all 3 couples win because I was so torn! Everyone’s love stories were so touching and captured my heart completely. I really hope I get the opportunity to work with every couple in the future! With that being said, one story in particular made me a little teary eyed. (Note: I’m not one to cry easily) I was so touched by their love story and their relationship seems so genuine! I know they will be the perfect couple to work with!
To everyone who entered my contest: I am so thankful to all the couples entered in hopes to work with me! I feel so blessed that my work has reached the unreachable through hosting this contest. I know all the couples felt so loved from all the support they received! Remember, every couple who entered automatically receives a $100 discount off my Engagement session! If you wish to book your session please message me at alyssamariephoto@gmail.com!
To the 2 runner-up couples: Your stories were so beautiful & I can’t thank you enough for taking the time to share them with me. I loved every second while reading them! I can tell every couple is so in love & meant to be together! The amount of love each couple received to get to the final round was overwhelming! (Literally… my page was blown up with support!) Like I mentioned previously, “I wish I could let all 3 couples win” but sadly that would defeat the point of the contest. I can’t help but to give in a little and offer each of you a $200 discount my engagement session! I would really love to work with you both after connecting so well with your stories & hope to hear from you soon!
