Allison Maxwell Photography central Arkansas child + family photographer I prefer real smiles, playing chase, quick kisses, and tickle fights. I want to help tell that story. Just checking).

I live for taking the picture because OH MY GOSH I NEED TO REMEMBER THIS MOMENT. I believe in letting them be young and wild and free. I think family photos should be FUN and RELAXED and GENUINE. No, I will not photoshop your skin into flawless perfection because the wrinkles tell your story. I started photographing babies + families in 2010, because I had a decent camera and I once took an intro

to photography class in college. And naturally, that makes a photographer (do jokes translate on About Me pages? I had friends who trusted me with their special family moments, and with each session I grew in my craft. The more I practiced the more I loved it. There is an art and a science to photography, and I love the things I learn every time I pick up a camera. A few years into my venture, I was able to quit my day job and build a successful wedding photography business, based out of Richmond, Virginia. After some wonderful time on the east coast and a stretch of time in west Texas, I’m now back to where it all started with an intro to photography class – in Arkansas! I am excited to be introducing this business to the Natural State! A few extra things you about me: I am married to Jake and we have 2 girls and a Goldendoodle named Obu. I’m a major foodie, a cheap wine connoisseur, and always looking for a new adventure. Dark chocolate is the way to my heart, along with folky singer-songwriter Spotify stations. Once at a wedding I tripped backward over my camera bag and landed on my butt. You definitely want to know that. I am excited to learn about you!

Did somebody say PLAYFUL PORTRAITS?!??!?

We took his mama’s maternity photos in one million degree weather, so it seems fitting to sweat our way through his birthday pictures 😅
