My name is Alana. I am a wedding photographer based in the Chicagoland area who ranges from lovely backyard weddings in the suburbs, to swanky celebrations in the city, to flying off to stunning elopements around the world. Weddings with me include tons of laughter, lots of support in planning and organizing, and photos so vivid that your memories jump out of the frame. (It may also include us both happy crying together on the big day) I make the whole process as easy and fun as possible, and would be absolutely honored to take on the role of turning your memories into stunning artwork!
In the times of light and airy, I offer highly dynamic photos full of life and rich color. Your gallery includes tons of meaningful candids throughout the entire day, attentive shots of even the smallest details, and some show-stopping editorial portraits of you and your partner. I’m no saleswoman, but I am someone who deeply cares about the people who graciously allow me into one of the most intimate and monumental moments of their lifetime. You have found a really sweet, happy-go-lucky person who loves her job as well as giving people a super positive experience from start to finish.

Not only is Alana an extremely gifted photographer (she made a girl who has never liked a single photo of herself, suddenly have dozens that she loves), she is incredibly sweet, professional, and a joy to work with.

Her photos were nothing short of amazing, and I cannot express how many people commented on the wonderful work she did. I highly recommend her work to anyone looking for a talented and dedicated photographer. Thank you, Alana, for making our day so memorable!

From our engagement photos to the photos on our wedding day, I was impressed throughout the whole experience! Not only was she creative and talented with her photos, she was very kind and so easy to work with! The photos make me smile every time I look back on them and just turned out so beautifully. I would 20 out of 10 recommend Alana if you are looking for a great photographer.

Pleasure to meet you! I am the proud owner of this super small, one woman business. It all started when my mom let me play with the tiny camera she kept in her purse when I was 13, and now I get to wake up everyday and create artwork that makes my clients and I endlessly happy.
Hi, I'm Alana
