wedding & lifestyle photographer
A picture is worth a thousands words. Let’s write a freaking book.
I’m a documentary-style photographer specializing in capturing life’s most invaluable stories and treasured moments all around the world. I sincerely believe that love isn't staged. It’s spontaneous and unique and imperfect and messy in all the best ways. Most importantly, love is fun. I’m here to make sure your photos reflect that.

I'm AlliE
After spending six unforgettable years living my best life in Nashville, I’ve found my way back to my New England roots where my love of family and community runs deep. I’m a wife, a mom, a sports enthusiast, a music lover and a self-proclaimed expert in sarcasm and sour beer. When I don’t have my camera in hand you can find me playing pickup basketball at my local gym, beating my son and husband at Mario Party or curled up with a Redbull and my latest library find. I love thrift shopping, spontaneous kitchen concerts and sitting front row at WNBA games.
I vibe best with those who know what they want, embrace the messy, value connection and don’t take themselves too seriously.
I’m a proud Mainer with a hint of southern charm
Words cannot begin to describe the interaction and relationship built with Allie.
Cavin + Mmeghan
"Trying to plan a wedding 500 miles away was quite the challenge at times. Finding Allie was such a Godsend to us as we did not have the time to go to Nashville and shop for vendors. Her communication was timely, thorough and she fully understood what my husband and I were looking for without having even met her. My vision for our pictures was completely captured by Allie and I could not have asked for anything more. You will not regret selecting Allie to capture the memories that are important to you."
When I was looking for a photographer, I wanted to have 100% confidence to trust their artistic ability so that I didn't have to worry about over engineering, dictating, or nit picking anything.

"I also really didn’t have a specific idea about what pictures I wanted so I wanted the photographer to be able to tell me what I needed based off of whatever elements were present at the time. I knew when I saw Allie’s vibe and aesthetic that she was the person for the job! I was also so nervous and awkward going into pictures and she made everything so comfortable and fun that it actually made me less nervous for the ceremony! I just let her do her thing, trusted her, and I’m so happy we did! I even was obsessed with her detailed pictures of the water, scenery etc. The moral of the story is she is an artist who knows her craft and I loved that I could trust her to do her thing and know that the quality was going to be perfect! I was not disappointed
Allie captured our wedding day so perfectly that reviewing our gallery feels like we’re reliving it all over again!

"We did our engagement shoot with Allie and she immediately felt like a friend we’ve known for years. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera (which we’re normally not). Throughout the planning process, Allie was so accommodating, organized, and her expert knowledge made all the difference in planning our wedding day timeline. Not only is Allie incredibly talented and a true master of her craft (I mean have you seen her Instagram?!), but she is extremely kind, friendly and the type of person you’ll want with you on the most special day of your life. We couldn’t be happier with the way that our photos came out and will still be singing praises for Allie Kelley Photography when we look back at our wedding photos for years to come."
It honestly doesn’t get much better than Allie’s photography skills. I (half jokingly) say I wish I could get married 5x more so I could have her capture my photos again.

"She’s done my engagement shoot, my wedding, my pregnancy photos and now my family photos. I’ve hired her for shoots for my friends. You name it, we’ve done it. She makes us feel so comfortable and turns what could feel awkward into something so fun. I feel blessed to have found her!"
Allie Kelley is an absolute gem! My husband and I hired her for a photoshoot on our one-year anniversary, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish.

"From the moment we met Allie, she made us feel like we had been friends for life. Her warm and welcoming personality instantly put us at ease. There was zero pressure throughout the photoshoot, just an abundance of fun, laughter, and genuine moments. It felt like we were just spending time with a dear friend while capturing beautiful memories.
Allie's talent behind the camera is remarkable, and she has an incredible knack for capturing the most authentic and heartwarming moments. The photos she delivered were beyond our expectations, and they will be cherished forever. If you're looking for a photographer who not only produces stunning work but also makes the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free, Allie Kelley is the one. We can't thank her enough for making our anniversary photoshoot so memorable."
