Hey!

I'm so happy you're here

I'm Allison, the heart behind the lens.

What started out as a hobby for me has turned into my passion, my art, and my way of giving people the ability to freeze their special moments in time.


my main goal is to capture genuine and meaningful moments



GET TO KNOW ME!

-I'm married to a retired Army vet and he's my BEST friend and biggest believer!  

-I'm a mom and my kiddos are my "WHY" in just about everything I do. I truly feel my life began when I became a mom.

-I have two dogs and two house rabbits, and I am obsessed with ALL animals!

-My soul feels most at peace in the mountains but I LOVE a good beach day.

Clients Say

Roots and Light Photography deserves every bit of five stars. Allison took both our family photos and my maternity photos. The entire experience was truly wonderful. She is incredibly professional yet so sweet, humble, and easy to be around. Her kindness really shows in the way she works—never rushed, always patient, and genuinely focused on making everyone feel comfortable.

Her pricing was absolutely affordable with photos that came out extraordinarily beautiful, capturing moments that we’ll treasure for years.

I also have to mention her assistant, Joe. He has a natural ability to make anyone laugh—especially the kids—and brought such a humble, lighthearted energy to the session. Together, Allison and Joe make an amazing team, and they turned what could’ve been a stressful photo day into something fun and memorable.

I’m so grateful we chose Roots and Light Photography. Highly recommend!
