Best of 2018: Engagements & Portraits

I’m Allison.
Welcome to my blog! This is where I'll share past weddings, my favourite wedding tips, and sometimes I'll even throw in some sage photography advice or a personal blog post or two.

2018 was a great year for me and my camera! I got to photograph so many wonderful couple’s engagement sessions that are making me super excited for all of my 2019 weddings!

Engagement sessions are one of my favourite parts of the whole wedding experience. They give me and my couples a chance to connect with and get to know each other and it gives them a chance to get comfortable in front of the camera because, let’s face it, it’s really intimidating!

Along with getting to capture some beautiful couples, I also got to photograph a maternity session for my good friends Monica and Alex and did a photoshoot for my friend Lia and her cousins (I think the world needs more cousin photo shoots because it was so fun!)

Scroll on to see just a small sampling of my favourite pictures from the portrait and engagement sessions of 2018!
