Hi friend! I’m Lisa, a photographer based in Fayetteville, NC, serving Fort Bragg and the surrounding areas. I love capturing the real, joy-filled moments. I am here for the giggles, the snuggles, and all the in-between magic you never want to forget. My goal is to keep your wedding packages lighthearted, and stress-free while still offering affordable, high quality images. You just show up, love on your people, say "I do" and I’ll take care of the rest. I seriously can't wait to work with you!

Lisa was absolutely amazing to work with for our wedding! From start to finish, she was so kind, helpful, and genuinely excited to be there with us. She was always ready to jump in when we needed her, whether it was helping with posing, fixing little details, or having tissues ready in her fanny pack when the happy tears started! She made us feel so comfortable and kept everything feeling fun and relaxed throughout the day. She also had such a great balance of directing us when we needed it while still giving us space to just enjoy our day and have our own moments. We never felt rushed or overly posed, and she captured so many moments that we didn’t even realize were happening. We are beyond happy with our experience and our photos and would 100% recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a photographer who truly goes above and beyond!

He is responsive to all questions and requests which made the planning process a breeze.

He has an easy going demeanor that made us comfortable when taking pictures and he’s always thinking about the next shot which made the photo sessions quick but thorough.

Hey, hey my name is Ali. NY-based, but working nation-wide, I'm a wedding photographer who captures experiences, genuine love, authentic characters, and immortalizes precious memories. I focus on visualizing how it felt to live your wedding day, while also crafting editorializations simply for the sake of intentional, living art. I am adamant that everyone, of all genders and orientations, any ethnicity, culture, or faith, all shapes, ages, and abilities, are welcome and I’d be delighted to work with you.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the most amazing time working with Ali! We had kind of a long engagement and we initially started working with Ali over a year and a half before our wedding to get our engagement photos done. Not only were the photos beautiful, but Ali made us feel super comfortable and at ease throughout our session. Leading up to our wedding day, Ali was amazing at coordinating the day of timeline with our coordinator and making sure that all the elements that were important to us were included so that we had enough time to capture the moments. One of my favorite things about working with Ali is her calm presence. Every time I was stressed about something in the planning process about the timeline I would talk to Ali and she would immediately make me feel at ease. She was constantly reminding me that the most important thing on my wedding day was to be present with our friends and family (and as a type A bride this was a much-needed reminder!) Ali also came to take photos at our rehearsal dinner and welcome party which was great because she got to know our families and our family dynamics before our big day which was a huge help! On the wedding day Ali and the second shooter Scottie were rockstars! They went above and beyond at every opportunity from helping the boys tie a bow tie, climbing out on my fire escape to get a crazy photo that I had in mind, moving locations at last minute, dealing with rain, helping bustle my dress, and of course capturing all the beauty of our perfect day. I will not hesitate to work with Ali and her team again! She’s amazing, a true professional, and I hope we have the chance to have her capture our big milestones in the years to come.

I’ve been a Raleigh, NC local since 2014—by way of Chicago, by way of military brat, so, all over. With a background in theater, I know how to read a room, anticipate moments, and blend seamlessly into your day while offering gentle direction.. An avid traveler and lifelong student of the world, I’m fascinated by other cultures, languages, and traditions—curiosity that naturally fuels my love for storytelling through photography. Behind the scenes, my Type A nature keeps every detail organized and flowing smoothly. Outwardly? Calm, upbeat, and ready to pivot. I’d love to document your story—and I can’t wait to hear from you.
