Alisa is a true artist who creates some of the most beautiful photographs I’ve ever seen. I have been a model for over 20 years professionally and have seen and experienced many many photographers’ work firsthand. Alisa paints with light and captures the emotion and essence naturally. She is extremely talented and truly a gift. She has also had the experience of being in front of the camera and behind the camera so she seen an experienced both and is an expert in her field. Alisa also has a very calming, nurturing way about her. She is easy-going and a bright spirit. If you are not sure what to do Alisa gently guides you to co create together. I have also worked with Alisa for photographs for my sound healing business and they are amazing! I highly recommend working with Alisa if you are wanting a strong beauty shot, headshot or really want pictures to capture your personality & essence! More...

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
I believe it's a combination of things.
Client needs to be rested, relaxed, ready to play and open to direction.
Great light is key with clean simple wardrobe and (if possible) hair & make up.
Music, I always recommend having their playlist.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
What are we photographing? What's your style? If your an actor who do you resonate with? If your a model, who are some of your favorites? How would you describe yourself? I ask a lot of questions, it helps me to understand their needs.
What do you love most about your job?
I love meeting new people, creating some magic and having great conversation. I find I have met some incredible humans on this journey.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Was an international model for many years and travelled the world. Picking up a camera was a natural progression for me as I was always asking questions and trying to figure out why something looked good or didn't. I am also a story teller & it's an opportunity for me to tell stories with the photography.
Why should our clients choose you?
I bring something to the table with my years in front and behind the camera as a model, actor & photographer. I am an intuitive shooter and I am very good at what I do.
