Please follow my new page! 🥰

I’ve officially decided that I’m heading in somewhat of a new direction ♥️ so… welcome to my new page!

For the last couple of years I’ve slowly been moving towards mostly bo***ir and fine art photography and in that time I’ve realized that nothing fills my cup like studio photography – especially with my amazing new studio coming to completion!

Starting in May I will only be taking on weddings/elopements that really fit my vibe (unique, exciting, intimate, photo focused) and I will only be taking a couple a year. My body can’t handle the long days anymore and the stress just keeps me up at night. In the future I may bring back my wedding work in a new way, but for now I need to set it on the back burner and focus on my health and the exciting new developments in my work.

(Edit: weddings are back! Check out Vesper & Vow Love Stories Co.)

👉 The projects I’m currently looking to take on are mostly fine art. This could range from senior photos, maternity, engagement, branding, to even portraits just for fun! Whatever it is, I will be taking inspiration from fashion, editorial, and conceptual work.

As usual, I will still be keeping up with my work at Blume Bo***ir, as well! You’ve already seen the direction I’m heading over there and I’m very excited for some new projects I get to release soon 🥰

Thank you all for your support and I hope you continue to follow me on this journey ♥️ if you have any questions don’t hesitate to reach out!

With love, Alyssa

I’ve slowly been shifting my style to more true to life colors while still keeping the richness, warmth, and vibrancy my clients come to me for. I have to say, these photos took my breath away!

Partying with Brianne and her crew was so fun! Just LOOK at that robe photo, so much excited and loving energy ♥️ not to mention the post ceremony bus ride to the bar! My brides are definitely the coolest!

✨ Congrats Mr. & Mrs. Larson ✨

If he doesn’t dance with you in the parking lot, is he really the one? These two are truly living in an early 2000’s rom-com ♥️

Big congrats to the Bebergs!

Sneak peek from the Klinke wedding! Over the last two years these two have been so relaxed and fun to work with. I cannot wait to see what their future holds.

Also, can you believe this stunning bride was 17 weeks pregnant?? Talk about a woman who can do it all!

Congratulations again, Mr. & Mrs. Klinke!

We decided to go casual for the sunset portraits, so I gave them prompts instead of posing them too specifically. At one point I said “Be cute! Show me how much you love each other.” and y’all, they showed me!

Also, the necklace nestled into Jordan’s bouquet belonged to her late sister 🥺 it’s so special that she was able to be at the brides side for the entirety of that wonderful day.

Congratulations again, Mr. & Mrs. Hughes!

I’m absolutely sick to my stomach for all of the Glasser brides, I can’t imagine how stressful this is for all of you 😩 I have some dates left for 2021, happy to offer a discount and payment plan to those of you who’ve been affected by this.

Below is some of my recent 2021 work, if you’re interested you can find more info and my contact form at AlyssaDaken.com/weddings ♥️ based out of Bemidji, MN and happy to travel!

This was the sweetest day with the sweetest couple! Can you believe this was Joe’s first time ever attending a wedding? And just LOOK at the colors we captured! Thank you for trusting me to capture this wonderful day ♥️

P.S. that third photo is totally unposed - just a candid shot! Sammy just happens to be a real life Disney princess 😉
