Katie Allred Photography (formerly Persuasion Photography)

Fairytale and fantasy-inspired weddings and elopements for romantic, whimsical nerds. I cater to adventurous couples who value creative collaboration, personality, quality over quantity in their guest list, and a healthy dose of immersive escapism (eg, if you’ve ever traveled to Italy to re-enact Padme and anakin’s wedding- or attended a Bridgerton ball… you’re my kind of people). I passionately believe micro-weddings and elopements deserve the same celebration and appreciation as the traditional, big wedding. Intimacy, intentionality, annd peace are the true luxury!

Preparation through experience! 20+ years in the wedding industry (much of it in the luxury/ editorial sphere) has whittled my systems like a sharp pencil. There’s very little I haven’t seen or for which I haven’t prepared. My career ballet background provides a keen understanding of how to guide movement and awareness in clients so I can coach you effectively. You’ll never have to wonder what to do with your hands and face! As a recovering shy girl, empath, and introvert, I can read a room, and mood. “Pretty pictures” are a no-brainer… but how you’re valued and made to feel throughout our experience make an even deeper impact.
