AN ELEVATED EXPERIENCE

crafting images
the past 20 years

I have been mastering the craft of photography since the early days in high school and continued through the dark rooms developing film, in college. Allison Upchurch Photography officially launched in 2018 after pursuing a degree in Human services and took a step back from the mental health field to raise my babies. At that time, ignited the spark to return to my roots and my passions.

With nearly a decade of wedding experience, My bespoke approach allows me to understand your needs and bring your vision to life while maintaining an elevated yet effortless and professional approach

I intentionally work with a select number of events per year so I can invest back into each and every client 

CALIFORNIA EFFORTLESS LUXURY WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

She provides an amazing experience and beautiful photos

she was the calm within the chaos so to say. She was constantly positive, patient, and helpful. She helped us feel stress free and was able to get a lot of our shots done in a timely manner so we had more time to spend with guests.

MY APPROACH + PHILOSOPHY

CAPTURING YOUR IMAGES 

I love capturing the connection between people.

The way people naturally communicate through words & movement. 

 

Showcasing moments of your day as it naturally unfolds, ​providing you images that'll remind you just the way it was

There's times where I guide you based on the best lighting and overall vision. It's a beautiful mix of having a plan and providing creative direction but allowing space for you to soak in the time and experience it all

IMAGINE A DAY THAT IS AS EFFORTLESS & RELAXED

AS IT IS ELEVATED & TIMELESS

Connections are the center of memories and the magic happens when you allow yourself to just be

Your wedding should be captured in a way that showcases the love & connection between you both as well as your guests 

 

I capture weddings for what they are truly about;

love, connection, celebration

 

You won't feel forced poses or artificial smiles, Only genuine, candid moments– the laughter, the tears, the quiet glance of grandma as she sees you in your dress for the first time
