Alisia Thompson Photography

I spent days searching through wedding photographers online in central Pennsylvania before finding Alisia. To say I was picky when choosing a wedding photographer is a large understatement, as I myself also take photos and had a very particular style in mind. Throughout the entire process, Alisia exceeded every expectation I could ever have. She has the most exquisite editing style that accentuates natural beauty in both people and the surrounding setting. Her photos are so beautifully natural in appearance, taking on a film-like feel. Beyond her gift for photography, Alisia is the most kind, patient, attentive to detail yet laid back, and fun vendor to work with. My husband and I had the opportunity to get to know Alisia before the wedding at our engagement photoshoot. She makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera and has lots of posing tips and tricks. Our engagement photos were so much fun! The wedding was also an absolute dream. Alisia takes the time the week before the wedding to outline all of the family photos so that the process is simple, efficient, fun, there is no confusion, and no "must-have" photo gets overlooked. I received so many compliments from guests and family on how well Alisia had family photos planned and how well she manages a large group of people in such a friendly manner with such leadership. She made sure all of the creative photo ideas I had for the wedding were incorporated in both the engagement and wedding photos, while constantly surprising me as well with all of her creative ideas! She got a very large preview of wedding photos back to us within the week after our wedding and had all of the wedding photos ready considerably before the deadline outlined in our contract. Alisia is very responsive throughout the whole planning process and was truly my favorite vendor to work with for our wedding. On top of all of this, she is incredibly fairly priced for her work. Alisia is the best photographer in central PA and I would recommend her to anyone!

Alisia is amazing, first and foremost. She captured our engagement and our wedding in such beautiful light. Wonderful to work with from beginning to end and even found us a second shooter within a month of our wedding! I have already received a glimpse of our photos and I'm blown away--so is everyone else that has seen them! She doesn't just capture a moment, she captures the feeling in that moment, too.

Nothing I say here will truly do Alisia and her work justice but I will try. To begin with, she is absolutely delightful to be around! Her positive attitude and sense of humor won us over in just a single phone call and we decided to hire her for our wedding and engagement photoshoot. I have never been comfortable in front of the camera but with Alisia it was all a breeze. She caught on to our goofy dynamic and was able to give us just the right instructions to capture some beautiful candid poses. Beyond posed portraits, I truly do not recall noticing her taking photos during our ceremony and other intimate moments throughout our wedding, yet we have hundreds of beautiful photos to remember our day by. How she was able to be simultaneously so stealthy and so present, I cannot explain. We got all of our photos, over 800 of them, beautifully edited and organized in an online gallery ready to share with friends and family, in TWO WEEKS!!! That is unheard of for wedding photography. I have gotten countless compliments on our photos and cannot stop looking at them and thanking my lucky stars that I found Alisia. I cannot wait to have another reason to work with her! I hope this review has helped clear any of the reader's hesitation and that they will hire her IMMEDIATELY! :)
