Your child is unique.

 Their school photos should be too.

You hear 'Picture Day' and you're immediately brought back to that blue backdrop, with big lights in your face. 'Ok, look right here aaannnd... SMILE'. And then just as quickly as you sat down, you're rushed off for the next student to get their turn. Ugh, I cringe just thinking about it.

These school photos? They're not like that. They're the complete opposite, in fact. I place a huge emphasis on connection & playfulness. Of course, I'd love to get a big simile on their face, but only if that smile is genuine. Moms can always tell the difference. 

These are done outside, without a big set-up or backdrop. When it's your child's turn, I'll spend about  5 minutes with them, dancing around, singing songs, and sometimes our adventures take us up a tree or on the playground. No matter what,  I always meet your child where they're at. The result are timeless photos that are warm, honest, and real. 

You'll want these framed - I promise.

LOVE NOTE FROM DINA preschool director

Ali connected with our students right away & used play and laughter to bring out real personality. She was especially patient with kids who are typically more reserved, meeting each child where they were comfortable. Her communication was clear and proactive, the parent process was simple, and families raved about the portraits, many saying they were the best school photos we’ve ever offered.

She ran photo day like someone who understands early childhood education.

10/10 recommend!!! Ali was able to make my very shy daughter comfortable enough to where we got multiple beautiful shots of her being her true self! If you want something more special than the traditional school photo, definitely work with Ali!!

what parents are saying

Ali is just the best. My daughter’s school pictures she took are some of my favorite pictures I have of her (along with the family photos she took). The little moments is what she’s so good at capturing and my pictures from her will be the ones I hold close. Thank you for the forever photos of my girl Ali!

My daughter’s personality truly shines through in the school pictures Ali took of her. She has set the bar high—school photos now come with the expectation that they should capture not just what she looks like, but who she is.

Inquire for your school

These are different

focused on privacy

Families view images in a password protected gallery. I collect only what’s needed to deliver photos and I don’t sell or share student information.
The school pays nothing. I run photo day and handle family ordering questions so your staff stays focused on the day.

FREE FOR SCHOOLS

We photograph outside on your property, using natural light and whatever’s already there, trees, fences, brick, playground corners. No backdrops, no sets, no flash.

MODERN APPROACH

Parents don’t pay up front. They’ll see their child’s images, then decide what they want to purchase.

view first

Once upon a time, I wanted to be a teacher but life had other plans. So, it only makes sense that I would find myself back in a classroom. When I'm with your kids, I'm on their level - we're playing together and laughing hard. I ask them about their favorite toys or something silly they like to do. Connection is my specialty - and school photos are such a fun way to showcase that.
