Lake Bryan at sunset is stunning on an average day, but when I did Elia and Noah’s engagement session, the weather couldn’t have been more perfect. It was warm and breezy, just like Elia and Noah are. Both students at Texas A&M, Elie and Noah met during CRU, through their campus ministry. During our session, they were full of giggles and laughs, and I could tell how comfortable and content they were to be in each other’s company.

“she was so pleasant to be around and had such a positive and calming presence on that hectic day..”

Alyssa was my wedding photographer and I can’t say enough good things about her! We got our photos back a few weeks ago and I haven’t stopped looking at them since. She instantly picked up on our vibe and captured everything perfectly. Also, she was so pleasant to be around and had such a positive and calming presence on that hectic day. One of the first things my husband and I talked about after the wedding was how much we enjoyed having her there that day. I would book her again in a heartbeat!

“Our pictures bring me to tears to this day and that’s all because of her amazing work. Not only is she an amazing photographer, she is an amazing person..”

I cannot express enough how amazing Alyssa was. She shot our engagement session and wedding. She very quickly became someone who I felt like I had known for years. She makes the photo shoot so comfortable, even playing music of your choice to help relax you and ease the nerves. For our wedding, she showed up early and went above and beyond to capture the most perfect shots of our day. Our pictures bring me to tears to this day and that’s all because of her amazing work. Not only is she an amazing photographer, she is an amazing person. We can’t wait to have her shoot more of our life events. She is forever our go to girl for pictures.
