I’m drawn to the quiet, honest moments—the wind-tousled hair, the soft touch of a hand, the way love lingers in a glance. My work is about holding space for the beauty in the everyday, capturing emotion in its truest form so it can live on through generations.

Whether it’s barefoot in a sun-drenched field or wrapped in a storm of giggles and little hands, I’m there to tell the story of your life as it unfolds—wild, tender, and beautifully real.

    “Alivia was one of the best decisions that we made for our entire wedding day!! I cannot suggest her enough to friends and family to take their photos. Her responses and help during the planning process were so timely and informational. During the wedding day she helped my husband and I feel our best, guiding us through posing, directing family members and wedding party, and watching our timeline! The sneak peaks she send were so fun and the final album is soooo much more that I could have imagined and was done exactly when she said. Still almost 6 months later my husband and I just scroll through the photos to remember our special day!!”

  • Ellie + Gavin

    Alivia!! She is such a bright light to this world & captured our day in such a special way - our pictures are a dream. Literally. Her creativity is something so unique and special it seriously adds character to every photo she takes, and she makes anyone and everyone feel comfortable behind her lenses. Our sneak peeks she sent us are truly amazing and we just know the full gallery will be out of this world - we have gotten SO many compliments on our photos! She’s the easiest person to work with and was organized and attentive through this whole process which is so refreshing! I cannot recommend her enough, she is so talented and will capture anyone’s days just as imagined. We love her and cannot wait to keep using her as our photographer!

  • Regan + Ben

    SERIOUSLY the best photographer ever. If you have a vision she not only captures it but goes above and beyond what you could ever dream! My husband and I are the least photogenic people alive and have gotten our pictures taken by Liv 4 times and have absolutely LOVED them every time. So do yourself a favor and book with the best photographer around!

  • Delaney + JJ

    Alivia is the sweetest, happiest and most energetic person ever. She has amazing talent- with a great eye for poses and photoshoot spots. She is always filled with LOTS of great energy. It's so easy to have a natural smile/ laugh while she's taking our pictures. She has the perfect poses memorized and doesn't hesitate to help us get the most out of our photoshoot session, constantly having us pose for the perfect shot. And a huge plus is you can't help but become best friends with her, right after you meet her! She texts/emails back super quick and is always accurate with any suggestions on anything such as location spots, wedding details and advice, etc. Not to mention she plans out your ENTIRE wedding day for you. HIGHLY recommend this sweet girl as your photographer for any occasion.

Common Questions

  • Weddings & Elopements

    Once you reach out, I'll send over my pricing guide and a link to schedule a call so we can chat about your vision and see if we're the perfect fit. After our conversation, I'll craft a proposal tailored to your day, including the contract, payment plan, and all the next steps to make it official.

    Lifestyle & Motherhood

    After you inquire, I'll share my pricing guide and answer any questions you have to ensure we're aligned. Once you're ready, I'll send over your proposal with everything you need to lock in your session and start planning something beautiful together.

  • Absolutely! If you’re dreaming of more time to soak in every moment, just reach out, and we can chat about adding extra coverage to your collection.

  • For local weddings, yes! A second photographer joins me to ensure we don't miss a beat. For elopements and destination weddings, I bring along a trusted assistant to help with all the behind-the-scenes magic. If you'd like a second photographer for your elopement or destination wedding, we can definitely add that to your collection.

  • Not at all! While you're welcome to print your photos wherever you like, ordering through me ensures the highest quality and color accuracy. Plus, your online gallery makes it super easy to select and order your favorites directly.

  • Travel is included up to 60 miles from Fort Wayne. For anything beyond that, there's a travel fee of $0.75 per mile. If your session or wedding is over 300 miles away, I may need a hotel stay for 1–2 nights, depending on the timeline. This ensures I can be fully present and ready to serve you with all the energy and love your day deserves!

  • I deliver all photos through a private, online gallery where you can view, download, and print your images with ease. I don’t cap the number of images delivered — every story is different — but you can typically expect 80+ images for sessions, with wedding galleries varying based on your day’s coverage. My heart is to under-promise and over-deliver, always giving you more than expected.

  • Yes! You'll receive full printing rights to your photos, allowing you to print and share them as you wish. However, I kindly ask that you don't apply filters or make edits to the images, as the editing style is a part of my artistic process and what makes your photos uniquely yours.
