Welcome
I’m Alyssa and I
believe this is the
beginning of
something good!
I believe that wedding photography is done best when couples have a relationship with their photographer and fully trust them. This is how I have guaranteed and delivered incredible photography experiences to my couples the past 10+ years! When I arrive on a wedding day, I need to feel like an old friend and not like a stranger. This affects every aspect of how your photos will turn out!

We polled hundereds of brides
AND THIS WAS THEIR GREATEST FEAR:
“What if I don’t love my
photos? I only have one
chance at this!”
LET’S BE FRIENDS:
This is what you need to know...
I’m a photographer but I’m also a wife, momma, a sister, and someone who truly believes God has given me this job because it allows my creative gift and passion to have purpose!
Fun Facts:
-
MARRIAGE
I believe marriage and deep relationships are some of life’s greatest gifts! I know that my- role in my AP couples’ lives isn’t only to deliver a beautiful final gallery but to be a supporter and encourager for their new marriage!
-
LITTLE PEOPLE
I believe that every human being has gifts and passions for purposeful reasons. I am so thankful that Jude and Nora are growing up watching their momma use my abilities in a creatively fulfilling business filled with meaningful purpose!
-
ENCOURAGING OTHERS
I am truly blessed to say that I am living my dream and I truly want that for everyone, which is why I love encouraging other small businesses and teaching + helping in any way I can.
THE EXPERIENCE
What is included in my
wedding experience and why:
I have structured my wedding experience very intentionally. Everything I offer and recommend is a strategic part of an overall experience that leads to what AP couples ultimately desire: genuine, timeless and joyful images. The most intentional aspects of the AP Wedding Experience include:
6 HOUR MINIMUM
I have found that for a traditional wedding day, we need a minimum of 6 hours to capture the full story of your day with a stress-free timeline.
SECOND PHOTOGRAPHER
A second Photographer is a nonnegotiable part of the wedding experience! There is a lot going on during a wedding day, so two photographers is absolutely necessary to capture all of the candid moments that happen throughout the day.
ONLINE GALLERY
All of the edited images will be delivered through your very own online gallery. You’ll be able to download all the images + order prints through the gallery if you’d like.
My Promise to You
YOU KNOW YOU WANT GREAT IMAGES....
But what you may not realize is that you need a great experience with your photographer more than anything! That is exactly what I promise to give you. Over and over and over again, AP couples rave about their experience almost more than their images! Why? Because in order to get those natural, genuine portraits that truly capture who you are, you have to feel comfortable with the per- son taking them. The way you feel while you are having your por- traits taken heavily influences how you feel when you see yourself in the final images. I have worked with over 100 AP couples over the last 10 years and I can honestly say it is 100% possible to love how you look in your images if you feel comfortable while hav- ing them taken! Creating comfortable, joyful and genuine client experiences is what I specialize in and I am excited to share more about what the AP Experience includes!
Samantha
“Hiring Alyssa was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. I had seen her work through one of the women I worked with, I knew (before I was even engaged) that when it was time for my now husband and I to finally tie the knot, that Alyssa was the person we NEEDED there.”
Alexa & Micheal
“I would recommend Alyssa Parker over and over again. I can’t possibly put into words how great Alyssa was and how amazing our pictures came out!”

FAQs
-
I love being both interactive and discrete throughout the wedding day. There will be parts of the wedding day when I will need to be in control to accomplish everything that needs to be done and to keep everyone on schedule. There will also be moments when you shouldn’t even know that I’m there. (The ceremony, during dances and toasts, etc.) I direct my couples how to pose and interact so they are natural and genuine.
-
I am more than willing to travel for engagement sessions! I love it when my couples ask me to photograph them in a location that means something special to them! I book engagement sessions at least two months in advance and include 30 miles of travel.
-
I average 100-150 final images per hour that we’re capturing moments throughout the day. This estimate is normally on the lower side since we tend to be over-shooters. I love delivering my client’s files quickly and easily via an online gallery. You will have the ability to print, share and download your images as much as you want. I believe in freely sharing my work because that is what I would want if I were in your shoes!
-
Always! I have multiple back cameras, lenses, batteries, lights, and every photo I take is actually being backed up as I take them and then backed up again when I get home! I take keeping your memories safe seriously!
Let’s chat!
I would love to set up a Zoom call to see if we’re a good fit! After all, your photographer will be there with you for it all!
HOW IT WORKS
CONTRACT AND RETAINER
If it’s a match, the next step is to sign the contract and pay a $1000 retainer to secure your date.
Planning
This is where the fun happens! Upon booking with me, I will then send you a 70+ page guide (+ a few extra surprises) to help you plan the most perfect, stress-free wedding day!
THE BIG DAY
I always arrive early to scope out the venue, find the best locations for photos, and of course, meet your friends and give you a quick hug! Then it’s time to get my camera out so I can tell the story of your best day ever through my lens. I LOVE MY JOB.
THANK YOU
I’m so glad you contacted me! Enjoy this new season of engagement! Plan and prepare but always remember that when it’s all said and done, all the food, the florals and the details will fade away. Once the last song is played and you exit your reception, you’ll begin your new chapter as husband and wife and you’ll have your photos to remember the day it all began. Congratulations on your engagement and I look forward to hearing from you!
