Hello & Welcome!
behind the camera lens
My name is Alyssa, born and raised in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
My husband and I have been together for over a decade and have traveled extensively here and abroad before settling down to raise a family.
I’ve always enjoyed documenting my personal experiences and travels through photographs, and that's where my photography journey began.
“We have used Alyssa now for our family photographer for years! She has witnessed our boys grow up, and they love her! We have our photo's all over our home and have referred her to many family and friends."
