Hi all! My name is Alyssa! I’m the girl pictured below, and is my sweet family pictured with me! I am a lifestyle, wedding, and event photographer working out of Chicagoland, Northwest Indiana & Southwest Michigan. I love traveling to new spots, so if you don’t find yourself in one of those 3 locations, let me know and we can talk about me coming to you!

People always ask me what my specialty is, and I always tell them that I grow with my clients and capturing happiness & love. I love getting to have fun with my clients, meet new people, watch couples turn into a family with pets and children, and meeting friends and family of my clients by referrals and doing extended family sessions.

Now, having a little family of my own, I’m realizing how important it is to take pictures and get in front of the camera so we can freeze the special moments in time, not just for ourselves, but for our kids and grandkids to look back at and remember. I can't tell you how much I cherish the photos I have with my grandparents and parents, and wish I had even more from when I was younger! Having quality images that will last a lifetime and that you can enlarge to make art for in your home is so important, and I love that I’m able to provide that for my clients!

I work with all stages of life, from high school senior portraits, to engagement shots, weddings, maternity, baby pictures, anniversaries, special events and more! If you would like to work with me and have me capture your next special moment, please contact me by clicking the contact button above.

I'm currently booking lifestyle sessions in-home and on-location through the end of this year and weddings through the end of 2022.

It's never too early to get on my calendar, so contact me today via the Contact Form on this website, or email me directly at hello@alyssastaats.com!
