photography
I've been incredibly blessed to find my people. The Brides and Grooms who call themselves #apcouples. The ones who send me pictures of their new puppy because they know I'll send back 47 crying gifs about how cute it is. The ones who are fluent in The Office and Parks & Rec quotes (and who would literally give up pretzel day and never play Cones of Dunshire again to not have to choose between the two.) And the ones who are so unbelievably in love with each other that they make themselves want to throw up.

Columbus, OH Wedding Photographer
My great-grandfather was an artist, both of my great-grandmothers were seamstresses. My grandfather was a wedding photographer, my grandmother was a seamstress, my father is an artist and musician, and my mother is a seamstress and fashion designer. So yeah, I pretty much had no choice but to inherit creative genes.
"Would I rather be feared or loved? Easy. Both. I want people to be afraid of how much they love me."

About Alayna
kevin, groom
"We had Alayna shoot both our engagement photos as well as our wedding. She was incredibly professional both times, and had shot lists and questionnaires ready to ensure we were happy with the results. Editing is also very well done without making the pictures look unnatural. Would highly recommend to anybody looking for a photographer!"
I dearly love every one of my couples, and I feel so grateful when they love me back!
Leslie, bride

Ashley, bride
"Alayna was amazing to work with and it truly shows in all of our photos (which she got to us 4 days after the wedding!) I felt so comfortable with her the entire day and I believe our pictures are better because of it! She caught so many beautiful candid moments and we are so lucky to be able to look at our photos and relive our perfect wedding day for years to come."

"Thank you so much Alayna! I can not tell you how amazing you’ve been, throughout the whole day you were perfect. Everyone in the bridal party expressed to me and Adrien how comfortable you made them feel and how joyous and happy you were. You were one of the many highlights of the day, I couldn’t imagine working with anyone else. You have been an absolute dream to work with, everyone at the wedding fell in love with you."
