“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.
