About

I'm Alyssa Alig, lover of an adorable shepherd-mix named Ellie, vintage décor, and traveling. My interest in art led me to get my B.A. in Fine Art from the University of Georgia in 2009, and I have been a wedding photographer in Athens and all throughout Georgia ever since. I've even gone across the country a time or two!

My wedding photography tends to be whimsical yet intimate, and I enjoy capturing couples' love for one another through quality, classic, romantic photos that will last a lifetime. My talented second shooters, editors and public relations team share the same ideals and help document your big day with the same passion.

In order to ensure each couple gets my highest quality work, I only take a certain amount of weddings per year. Please submit your contact information below so we can connect over coffee to discuss your big day! I can't wait to meet you.

I am so grateful to have found a wedding photographer like Alyssa. Her level of professionalism and creative eye are unparalleled. From day one she took a genuine interest in our collective vision for our wedding, while also taking the time to familiarize herself with important details like family dynamics. I'm in absolute awe of how she authentically captured our personalities in every shot. I cannot recommend her enough!

Alyssa did an amazing job at my wedding! We were beyond impressed at her ability to keep on schedule and make things happen. Her passion for photography is very clear. She made us feel so special that day and worked well with my other vendors. Once we received our pictures, we were speechless at how amazing and beautiful they were. I'm so thankful for Alyssa and the pictures that I can treasure forever!

We could not have had a better experience with Alyssa! She did our engagement pictures and our wedding pictures, so we had a great opportunity to get to know her, get used to working with her, and see how her photos came out. They were so beautiful--soft, intimate, and romantic while still crisp and colorful.

She was easy to work with, both during the photos and via email and text while planning. She always got back to me very quickly, and the turnaround on edited photos was 3 weeks for the wedding and even less for the engagement pictures.

She gave us access to our photos in an online gallery, and we could download those photos and post them on Facebook, Instagram, etc. For the wedding photos, she also mailed us a flash drive (and a bottle of champagne!). We have the digital rights to our photos and can use them online, which is great.

During the actual photographs, she made us feel at ease, and not awkwardly posed, and she knew how to pose us and use the surroundings to make our pictures come out a lot prettier than we actually are ;). She was good with our family for group photos at the wedding. She sent us a detailed questionnaire prior to the wedding to get an idea of what we wanted, and to get a list of photos, so there was no last-minute scramble to round up the correct family members or fight over who should be in which pictures.

I would highly recommend Alyssa to anyone looking for a photographer. We had a low-budget wedding, but we were willing to put some money into photography to make sure we had beautiful keepsakes and memories from what turned out to be a whirlwind of a day. The investment was so worth it. Even my husband, who is an accountant and never lets me spend money, said that she was the right choice.

Alyssa was honestly the best photographer I ever could have asked for. Not only are her photos stunning, but her personality behind the camera brings out the best in everyone photographs. The moment I met Alyssa, I immediately felt at ease and knew that we would be on the same page for the type of photos that I wanted for my wedding. Her sense of calmness kept me completely relaxed throughout my entire wedding day and it is evident in the photos that we received. She truly captured my husband and my personality while also capturing the entire spirit of our wedding. Once we received our photos, we were immediately in love with the entire collection. Alyssa never missed a shot and made a point to capture each specific moment that meant the most to me. The final album that Alyssa put together was beyond anything I imagined. In just 20-30 pictures, she was able to sum up what our wedding really meant to us. The time Alyssa takes to get to know a couple, their wish list, and the idiosyncrasies of the wedding is what makes her and her photos stand out above her peers.

Don't even hesitate for a second. Alyssa is the photographer you want for your wedding. Responsive and a pleasure to work with. As someone who has done professional photography I was extremely nervous about choosing a professional to shot my wedding but Alyssa ended up being a perfect fit. She had amazing ideas for the shots and the results anded up being nothing short of perfect.

Alyssa captures the day of your wedding in a beautifully artistic way. Her style is soft and sophisticated, but also demands your attention. She has an eye for beauty, and captures the unique moments of your wedding day. I cannot recommend working with Alyssa enough. Her work speaks for itself, and she is a joy to work with!

Alyssa is a talented photographer, but she is so much more than that.

From the first day we met, we knew she was the photographer for us: Her work is beautiful, her personality is great, and her love for people makes her all the better to work with.

Whatever style photography you prefer, she will cater to it. For us, she catered to our desire for a mix of modern and traditional photographs. Her attitude throughout the entire wedding process (which can sometimes be quite stressful/hectic), was one that looked toward the needs of others.

It's one thing to hire someone who takes awesome pictures; it's a another thing to hire someone who is a hard worker who immediately makes you feel like a friend. Alyssa is both, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.

Thanks for everything :)

I am so glad we chose Alyssa to be our photographer for our BIG day! Her professionalism and promptness only elevated the service we received from her! We also loved the fact that we had multiple packages to choose from, so we had options. We also loved that she came highly recommended from my other photographer friends in the area!

Her work is exquisite and I plan on recommending Alyssa to all of my future married friends!
