"Have enough courage to trust love one more time and always one more time"

∞ Maya Angelou

 

Welcome! I'm Alison, a local and international award-winning Santa Barbara and San Francisco Bay Area lifestyle and documentary wedding, portrait and fine art photographer. My passions are timeless, natural light, film-inspired visual narratives and fine art contemplative photography (mindfulness meditation with a camera).  Thank you for visiting my blog - I hope you'll stay a while and have a look around! Please be in touch - I love to talk photography!
