hi, I'm Ali
Lifestyle Photographer
I’m a mom of two human babes and three fur babies, a pediatric occupational therapist, and a huge reader (send me book recs!!). I’m not one to take life too seriously. I love to laugh, explore, and make the most out of every moment. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me reading or listening to audiobooks, at the beach, or diving into a new hobby every couple of weeks!
I first reached for the camera in high school, but if I am honest, it was short lived since I had so many hobbies. When my husband and I started dating, my now sister in law showed me how to work her camera and from there I was hooked. We moved away from Texas and to Florida in 2020. This meant no more photos with my sister in law. My husband surprised me with my own camera and I have been shooting ever since.
My approach
Every session is unique because every story is unique. I offer simple packages with starting prices, and I’m always happy to build custom options to fit your vision and needs.
Sessions with me are relaxed and fun. I’ll make sure we get the important looking at the camera shots, but I really focus on real life and real emotion — the laughs, movement, and connection that make your photos feel natural.
I love to play, keep things light, and help people relax. Most clients leave saying they had way more fun than they expected and that’s exactly the point.
The heart behind
flare
Flare is a quiet tribute inspired by my kids. Isla Sol brings warmth and sunshine; Bolt brings all of the energy. Together, they remind me how powerful a moment can be.
That’s what I chase with my camera. Real moments, real connection, real feeling. Not forced poses or perfect performances, but the in-between expressions, the laughter, the personality that makes you you.
