Hi, I’m Alyce, and

I believe the best photographs happen when you’re fully present in what’s happening around you.

I’m a coffee obsessed, travel-loving wedding photographer drawn to the moments that often go unnoticed, like the quiet anticipation before the bride goes down the aisle, the unplanned laughter, and the emotion that makes a memory feel alive years later.


Based in Maryland, and traveling throughout the East Coast, I document weddings through a candid, documentary approach, creating imagery that feels true to your story.

What it's like working together

A structured process so you know what to expect.

STEP 01

Inquiry

You reach out with your event details.

I confirm availability and respond with with package information and next steps.

STEP 02

Booking Details

If we align, I’ll send over your booking details.

This includes:

-coverage options

-package breakdown

-pricing

After you’ve looked everything over, we’ll set up a consultation call to go through everything together and make sure it’s the right fit before moving forward.

STEP 03

Contract + Invoice

 

After our call, I send over:

-a photography contract

-an invoice for the retainer/deposit

Once both are reviewed and the deposit is paid, your date is officially secured and you are on the books!

 

STEP 04

Planning Process

After your date is secured, you receive your initial questionnaire to gather more details.

As your wedding gets closer, you’ll receive another in-depth questionnaire for all the information I need for the day of.

STEP 05

Wedding Day Coverage

Before the wedding day, I establish a main point of contact (usually a planner, coordinator, or designated family member). This ensures you are not responsible for managing photo-related questions on the day.

All communication and timeline coordination goes through this person so you and your partner can stay fully focused on your day.

On the wedding day, I arrive knowing the full timeline, family photo list, and key priorities from your planning questionnaire. Nothing is left for you to organize or figure out last minute.

I step in when direction is needed (portraits, family photos, key moments)

I step back during the rest of the day so moments unfold naturally.



step 06

Gallery Delivery


The day after your wedding, I begin the process of going through images from your day. You will first receive a small set of sneak peek images within 72 hours of your wedding. These are meant to give you an early look at key moments while your full gallery is still being completed.

Your final gallery is delivered within the timeline outlined in your contract. Once ready, you will receive a private online gallery link where everything is organized and easy to navigate.

From your gallery, you can:

-view your full wedding story in sequence

-download images for printing and personal use

-favorite images and create your own collections within the gallery

-create your own private collections to share photos with family and guests.
