the EXPERIENCE & INVESTMENT

the EXPERIENCE

Your wedding day is so much more than a timeline of events—it’s a collection of moments meant to be felt. The joyful, breathtaking ones and the quiet, in-between moments that often end up meaning the most. My approach is simple and intentional. I’ll be right there capturing it all while making the experience feel effortless, natural, and genuinely fun. From helping you thoughtfully plan your timeline to guiding you in a way that feels comfortable and true to who you are, I’m here to support you every step of the way. This isn’t just about beautiful photos. It’s about preserving the emotion, connection, and magic of your day through timeless, elegant imagery you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

“Ali is so amazing to work with and captured our wedding day perfectly! We adore her and her work!” -Kylie & Luke

  • "We chose Ali to shoot our engagement & micro-wedding and it was the best decision! She’s truly a light! She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, was fun & professional. From helping the guys with their boutonnières, to helping me with my veil, her recommendations, etc. she went above and beyond in every way! We cannot recommend her enough. We will be continuing to use her for maternity photos, family photos, and everything else in between. We just got our sneak peeks back and are so excited to see the rest. Just when I thought it couldn’t get any better, it did! We can’t stop looking at our photos. Family members keep saying how nice, genuine, and talented she is! I’m so glad we found her - she’s the best, seriously!"

    —Holli & Jake

  • "Ali is AMAZING!! We are so happy we chose her to capture our engagement and wedding! She helped so much with putting together a timeline for the wedding day and handled getting all the photos done efficiently, especially with families. Our day would have been nowhere near as smooth without her. Our photos turned out beautiful and everything was perfect. Could not recommend her enough!"

    —Kaija & Mason

  • "Ali was wonderful to work with! From the first phone call, to the wedding day she truly was genuine, friendly, and organized! Not to mention her amazing talent and creativeness. She made us feel so comfortable and went above and beyond to capture our special moments. We loved working with her and could not love our photos from the wedding more!"

    —Megan & Jack

  • "Ali A was the BEST choice we made for our wedding. Everything was lovely day of, but receiving the photos from Ali was incredible! The little moments became STUNNING magazine level photos. Not to mention, the photography experience during the wedding was great! Ali's experience helped us set up a good schedule, and even when we strayed from it, Ali was great about fitting in the little moments for stunning photos. She also had great prompts for timeless and elegant poses. And she made us feel like the luckiest couple alive! Ali, you were amazing. Thank you for traveling to Maine to capture our wedding!!"

    —Annelise & Daniel

 FAQ’s

  • For all of my wedding packages, I offer an optional add-on for a second photographer at $75 per hour. This also includes some behind-the-scenes footage captured throughout your wedding day, delivered to you the next day in a shared album. Having a second photographer is incredibly valuable—not only does it allow for more photos and angles to be captured, but it also helps keep your timeline running smoothly, assists with organizing family formals, and ensures extra attention to all the meaningful details. An additional photographer also means an extra set of hands to offer you water during portraits, straighten your dress, and help make the most of our time together. I always recommend adding one on for weddings more than 150 guests, large families, or bridal parties larger than 12.

  • Absolutely—and I love it! Photography and travel are two of my favorite things, so I will happily meet you in any state, country, or city. All sessions within 100 miles of Chaska, MN are included at no additional cost. For mileage beyond 100 miles, there is a travel fee of $1 per mile. For weddings in Minnesota that require over 500 miles round trip, one hotel night will be added. For destination weddings, airfare and hotel costs will be added to the package total; all other travel expenses will be covered by Ali A’s.

  • I highly recommend choosing neutral colors, as they photograph beautifully and create stunning, timeless images. Once you’ve booked with me, I’ll send over my style guide to help you select the perfect outfits for your session—wardrobe truly makes such a difference in your final photos. I’m always here to help with outfit choices as well and am happy to offer complimentary color suggestions so we can achieve the very best look in your images.

  • ’m a Canon girly through and through 🤍 I primarily shoot with Canon mirrorless camera bodies—my main is the Canon R5 Mark II, with the R6 Mark II as my secondary body.

    I’m a prime-lens lover and typically shoot with my go-to 50mm f/1.2, 35mm f/1.4, and 85mm f/1.4 lenses. On wedding days, I also bring along my incredible 28–70mm f/2.0 for added flexibility and range when the moment calls for it.

    For lighting, I use Godox V100 flashes, along with multiple backups of both cameras, lenses, and lighting. I always come fully prepared so nothing stands in the way of capturing your day beautifully and delivering the highest-quality images possible.
