ARE YOU IN THE RIGHT PLACE?
At Alley Rose Co, I love to work with clients who are confident, courageous, and ready to embrace their true selves. If you’re the type of person who doesn’t let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game — we’re already on the same page.
I love working with those who are daring—who take risks, live life to the fullest, and chase what they want. If you’re ready to step into your adventure and make bold moves, I’m here to capture it all.
My clients are different—the ones who march to the beat of their own drum and embrace their uniqueness. You don’t worry about fitting into a mold, and that’s exactly what I want to celebrate in your photos and video.
Above all, I love to work with those who value experience. You understand that the experience matters just as much as the photos or video. You appreciate an organized, communicative approach, and want the process to be smooth and enjoyable.
& If you’re still reading this then I can’t wait to work with you!

VIDEOGRAPHY
Photos freeze a moment in time, but video captures the emotion, movement, and essence of your story. While many people think video is only for weddings, I believe video is for everyone. Whether it’s a boudoir session, engagement shoot, branding video, or wedding/elopement, video adds a unique and meaningful layer to your memories.
What I do is often called cinematography—focused on the flow of the video, synced with music. Instead of long documentary-style films, I create videos that are designed to spark your memories. My goal is to help you relive your special moments without needing to settle in for an hour-long movie.
Whether you need a Lake Tahoe wedding videographer, or branding videos for your business, or even engagement video services in Kauai, I’m here to bring your vision to life. I offer both video and photo services, or you can hire me for just one—whatever fits your needs. And if you choose to bundle both, you’ll enjoy a special discount!
About Me
“Everybody needs a passion. That’s what keeps life interesting. If you live without passion, you can go through life without leaving any footprints.”
– Betty White
XOXO
Hey Babe, I’m alley!
I’m a Reno & Lake Tahoe photographer & videographer, but I’m always up for an adventure, whether it’s capturing your love story in the mountains or hopping on a plane to Italy for your elopement. I specialize in those in-between moments—the ones that make you laugh, cry, and feel alive.
I’m not just here to take photos; I’m here to make your day feel like you from start to finish. If you’re looking for someone who will capture your story with heart or help make your wedding or elopement a reflection of your unique love, I’m your girl.

The pricing reflects the basics of my services, but my goal is to ensure you feel the love and care in every experience.

Nothing short of magical
Our experience with Alley was nothing short of magical. She brought a perfect blend of sweetness, genuine warmth, and infectious fun to our special day in Big Sur. Not only did she capture every precious moment with creativity and skill, but her presence also added an extra layer of joy to our celebration.

F.A.Q.
How do I book?
Easy peasy! Just click the “book me” button above, fill out the info and I’ll get in touch with you! It’s super helpful if you have a Pinterest board ready to go, but it’s not necessary so even if you are totally unsure of what you want, fill it out anyway and let’s chat about all the amazing details to come!
Can I bring my dog to my photoshoot?
The answer will always be HELL YES! I am a dog person through and through, hell I even say I’m like a human golden retriever! My ask is that you also bring someone with you that knows and loves the dogs and can keep an eye on them when they are not needed during the shoot.
Where are you located?
#anywhere! No joke my passport is well used and loved and I am ready to bring the magic wherever you are. My home is where my heart is though and my heart is with my husband and my two pups, they just so happen to be located in Reno Tahoe – a place filled without breathtaking beauty, magic, and every type of terrain you can imagine!
Will you travel to for shoots?
HELL YES! I try to keep things fair but traveling can have several different factors so every time I travel I provide a unique quote for it.
Will you photoshop me?
The short answer is no. The longer answer is this:
I believe so wholeheartedly that we are the way we are for a reason. I will not edit out anything that wouldn’t be gone a week later. Pimple cropped up morning of your shoot? No prob! Want to look 20 pounds lighter? Sorry but no. You are beautiful and should be proud of your body and how far it’s carried you in this life! My goal is that even without being photoshopped you see your photos and feel confident & amazing.
Can I pick the song for my video?
You can absolutely pick the genre! Since I do pay licensing fees on soundtracks to make it fully legal for your video to be on any platform it does restrict what songs I have access to. If you are interested in a specific song we can look up how much the fee is to license it (if it’s possible) and we can add an additional fee on to make that happen.
What does your team do?
I’m so glad you asked! When you reach out and I’m already booked this is when they step in! I’ll try my best to pair you with the person on my team that I think you would vibe with the most based on their availability.
While you won’t have any contact with them before or after the shoot the reason they’re part of my team is because I truly feel that they embrace the Alley Rose Co brand and values so it’ll be a very similar experience to shooting WITH ME!
If you have someone on the team shooting day of you’ll still work with me on all the behind the scenes stuff leading up to your shoot and then I’ll still be editing your gorgeous photos and video after as well.
How many photos are included?
It all comes down to how long I’m with ya! On average you’ll get about 60 photos per hour of coverage – though if I’m being honest you usually will end up with more than that! I never hoard any of your gorgeous photos for myself or “sell” more to you. After a shoot I immediately go home, go through all your gorgeous photos, get rid of any that our out of focus, blurry or just funky and then I edit and deliver you the rest!
How long until I get my photos?
I love to make my clients happy so I always try to deliver my galleries as soon as possible! But I usually am editing multiple galleries at once (especially during wedding season!) so for regular adventure sessions you’ll see your gallery within 3-4 weeks, and with weddings or elopements you’ll have it within 5-8 weeks. I do ask for love and grace with this because sometimes shit happens, and while I always aim to get them to you sooner rather than later, at times they may arrive a bit later than desired.
What do I wear?
A lot of people worry about this one! But don’t worry, I’ve got you covered. After you book with me I’ll send you an outfit guide when we get a bit closer to your shoot. It’ll have a TON of good tips and tricks for dressing your best and looking photo ready!
Do you do family shoots etc?
I like to say that I am an adventure photographer for: badass individuals (branding headshots, for fun shoots, boudoir etc), couples (engagements, date nights, proposals etc) and the “I Do’s” (micro wedding, elopements, weddings).
I will work with smaller families as well as long as we vibe and it’s within my schedule to do so! So reach out and let’s see what we can make happen!
Do you do Videography?
Hell Yes I DO! I just started at the end of 2021 so I’m still learning but am so excited to offer this at a discount to my amazing clients! Videography isn’t just for weddings – you can add it on to any session!
What happens if the weather isn't cooperating?
Come rain or shine I am READY! I personally think that weather makes a photoshoot that much more of a mood and I love how a little rain adds to the dimension of photos. That said, if it’s your preference you CAN reschedule (there is a rescheduling fee) to a different day. The only thing I’d like you to know is that (especially during the summer months) I can be booked pretty far out so I can’t guarantee that I’ll have something available right away.
