Grace Creatives Wedding Photography

2020 + 2021 Investment Guide

Yay! Guess what?!…you’re getting married!

Congratulations on your engagement! This moment in your life is an awesome time where you get to stop, relish in your commitment to each other, and celebrate with all of your biggest fans.

Photographs help tell this story. Photographs of stolen gazes, photographs of the most sincerest smiles, and photographs of a love language you never thought could be captured. This is SPECIAL.

I am so excited that you found my little corner of the wedding industry and are interested in hearing more about how I can serve you! R E A D O N and let me know if you have any questions (or just send me a bunch of emojis to let me know how you feel about the engagement ring). 😉

Grace Creatives captures LOVE and relationships in beautiful photographs that express the moment in artful creations you will cherish. You will be surprised with the resulting photographs and how naturally even camera shy people seem to easily look into the lens. Somehow, she obtains what exists in the heart and soul through the eyes of every participant!

Couldn’t have asked for better! Alison was absolutely amazing from start to finish – incredibly kind, intuitive, and cared so deeply about making sure she delivered whatever we wanted. Our wedding was a Catholic Mass, and Alison was extremely respectful throughout while still capturing incredible pictures. I could not recommend Alison more!

My name is Alison

& I would love to hear your story

If something is beautiful, then you better believe I’m going to let you know “that’s beautiful.” If something is breathtaking, I’m not just going to say ‘Woah.’ Nope. I will string oodles of sentences together describing how unbelievably awesome it is that I get to experience it and then probably start to tear up OR do some ultra weird wiggle move to release the vast amount of feelings. Yup. That’s me. Witnessing moments and capturing their magical-ness is what I do. Precisely why I love hearing the ‘how’ behind your love. However intricate OR simple the story, it’s pretty fun to hear how God has orchestrated it and how He continues to do so!

In addition to lovin’ stories, here are a few fun facts about me:

I once set my camera’s self-timer to ‘howl’ instead of ‘beep’ when the picture was taken.
Growing up, I would organize my friends’ rooms and drawers for fun.
My dad was in the military and I grew up living in a couple of different states: MN, MO, GA, and WI.
I lived in Scotland for a semester in college.
My maiden name meant ‘the barn’ in French.
I’ve been to 31 US states (I count a state if I’ve seen a site, stayed a night, or have gotten a bite [to eat]).
I almost never say “no” to dark chocolate.
My husband asked me to be his girlfriend with a Sharpie and a t-shirt.

A La Carte Items

If interested in booking collections 1 – 3, we invite you to choose one A La Carte item from below at no extra cost. If you would like to choose more than one A La Carte item, feel free to let us know and we are more than happy to book these additional services for you!

Extra Hour (Value: $250)
One extra hour of photography coverage on the day of your event. 🙂 If you feel like the collection times listed above don’t fit your timeline, choose this A La Carte item to add an extra hour!

Second Photographer (Value: $300)
A second photographer on the day of your wedding. Often times, a second photographer is a good choice if you choose to forgo a first look or if you and your partner would like to have separate ‘getting ready areas’ more than 10 minutes (driving) apart. Please note the second photographer cannot be guaranteed with short notice bookings (less than one month).

Engagement Session (Value: $300)
One hour engagement session at a location of your choice! Up to two outfit changes. You will receive all full-resolution & edited digital images with printing & sharing rights.

‘Trash the Dress’ / Adventure Session (Value: $350)
A ‘Trash the Dress’ session doesn’t mean that you need to actually ‘trash’ or destroy a wedding gown…more-so an adventure or post-wedding session to document your love in a unique environment or with creative and fun props (think on the side of a cliff, on a hike, jumping into a lake, or in a random field with some paint bombs). This session is 1.5 hours and you will receive all full-resolution & edited digital images with printing & sharing rights (travel included up to 1.5 hours from Milwaukee with these sessions).

Additional Information:

Tax is included in the total collection price.
Travel is included up to 30 miles (60 miles round trip) from Milwaukee. Additional mileage is $.57/mile.
