What My Customers Are Saying

PHILIP ESAIAN

Client

I was looking for a photographer for my daughter's baby shower. I found Alison Kelly from the GigMasters. I read what others wrote about her + i viewed her website. She seemed to be a good fit for the type of person i was looking for. She was everything i had hoped for AND MORE. She was unbelievable. She was prompt, arriving about 45 minutes before the start of the event. She took a ton of pictures and videos. Never a special request was denied. She was all over the place taking the most beautiful pictures. She truly captured the event. Our family thanks her for everything she did for us. And i thank Alison for being Alison.

From start to finish a seamless process. I cannot emphasize how easy Alison made this experience for my family and friends. Alison made all the guests feel at ease as she snapped photo after photo. Her work is absolutely stunning! She delievered the photos ahead of schedule. I only wish I could give Alison 10 stars!

Client

Alison captured all of the sweetest, funniest and most touching moments with her camera at our High School reunion. She jumped in last minute and turned the images around very quickly... a must if you have "social media" enabled family and friends. She arrived early on site and stayed later to capture one of two extra photos. I'd hire her for any event back in NY.

My family and I were so happy to have Alison as our photographer. We had our family photos at Eisenhower Park and they came out incredible. Everyone looked really great and Alison has a terrific eye.From the beginning she was an excellent communicator. Up to the point of the shoot, she was very professional about the timing and scheduling of the session, the location, and worked very fast. To the delivery of the photos, she worked very fast and we loved every single one of them. So happy we got digital copies. Most of all, her rates are incredibly reasonable. My family loves her work and we look forward to having her as our photographer again. Thank you Alison!"

Aviva S.

Client

This was the second time we've hired Alison to photograph our family. In the fall of 2018 we did a family photo shoot and this April, she photographed our daughters baby naming. She is flexible, reliable and a pleasure to work with. When you hire someone to capture your memories, it's so important that they know what you are looking for and follow through. Alison made sure that we communicated prior to the baby naming, and even on the day of, she would check in to make sure she took all of the photos that we wanted. She was definitely able to capture the special moments of the day and we will now have those memories forever. Thank you Alison!"

Bryan D.

Client

I hired Alison to photograph my proposal in Central Park last week, and she was absolutely fantastic. She offered a fair price for an hour of photographs, and the final products came out great. Most importantly, Alison is both flexible and pragmatic. She worked with me regarding the location of my proposal, and was able to position herself at the right place at the right time. My girlfriend (now Fiancé') was so impressed and happy with the event.....and we both HIGHLY recommend her services. Thank you Alison.

Profession

Alison was a great communicator during the consultation process. She accommodated our schedule and provided a great deal of flexibility. Her prices are reasonable and she spent time going to a location that we picked for our maternity session. Highly recommend. We're planning on hiring her again for our newborn session! Just a tip, if you're looking to shoot on location in LI, the LIU post campus is pretty.

Delores R.

Client

Alison is very professional, on time and took wonderful shots for my moms 100th birthday which was at a venue. She took beautiful shots throughout the day and gave me the proofs within 24-48 hours. Do yourself a favor and hire her, she does awesome work. Will use her again and recommend her to friends. AWESOME...Excellent photographer, very professional, she goes of her way to make your event special as she did for my mothers 100th birthday. I write this review again because I gave her 5 stars on my previous review but for some strange reason it only shows 3 stars. She really should be a 10....Great job Alison.

Alison took our holiday photos on location in beautiful Northport Village Park. We couldn’t have asked for anyone more qualified or better to capture our family’s memories.

Alison was a pleasure to work with. Starting from the first phone call she was friendly, responsive and helpful. The weather was not on our side the day of the photo shoot and Alison was so accommodating to make sure that we got the photos that we wanted. She was great with our almost 3 year old and captured great moments during our session. We were very happy with the photos and it will be hard to choose which one to use for our holiday cards

We have had Alison do several of our family events, and every single time she is punctual and enthusiastic, but more importantly she captures the moments perfectly. Having someone who makes the extra effort is key to having great photos of moments that can't come back. I truly value her work and know she will continue to grow with us as we grow as a family.

Allison was very affordable and extremely accommodating. Absolute pleasure. I received the pictures within 48 hours, and the pictures were amazing! I wouldn't even think twice to look around for future events, I'd automatically book Allison!

-omolola

Client

I am impress! Allison was professional throughout the entire process. The photos came out beautiful. My family and friends loves it. Allison arrived at the party at least an hour before she was supposed to capture the decorations prior to guess arrival. She went above and beyond to ensure full coverage of the entire event. Her attention to details is second to none. She is extremely friendly and genuinely a nice person. I started receiving electronic copies of my pictures two days after the event. Most photographer I know takes at least a week. Hire Allison for your event today and you will not regret it!

My band, Black Dawn, has used Alison's services in the past, and she continues to provide professional service and photographs very worthy to be included in the band press kit. Here is a link to the photo album which includes the shots she took of Black Dawn at a show in Queens, NY on February 5, 2016: Facebook Page I would certainly recommend Alison to other bands, and plan on having her photograph us again in the future. Thanks again Alison! Tom Black Dawn www.blackdawn.net

Client

Alison Kelly Photography is the perfect choice for anyone looking to document major events at an affordable price. As Editor-in-Chief of Hot Indie News I have hired Alison Kelly for a wide array of projects from producing photo coverage of live music performances for touring bands, to a political press conference for New York City Green Party candidates running for office. She is still new to the freelancing scene so she has no ego and is always very accommodating to giving me the exact shots I need for any assignments I send her way. Best of all, she conducts herself in a very professional manner which is a blessing to me and the subjects that she is photographing.

Alison is wonderful. She asked questions and made suggestions before the event so that she could capture the right shots. She was unobtrusive and obliging throughout the event, moving through the room and getting shots of all of our guests and all of the key moments. She produced a lovely mix of candid and posed shots. Her work is wonderful -- the joy of our event and our guests totally came through in her pictures. It was terrific to have Alison photograph this momentous event for us.

-Nicole

Client

Alison did such a wonderful job capturing my sister in laws baby shower. My family at first told me it was a bit "ridiculous" to hire a photographer but I am so happy I did. Actually we are all happy that Alison was there. When you are hosting an event it's stressful and it goes by very quickly. Alison arrived in the midst of us setting up and we were rushing to get the room in order and she offered to lend a hand. There was a calming presence about her and it was a relief to know the pictures were under control and I didn't have to worry. She captured every detail that went into the preparation of the room: welcome table, the onesie line, headband making station, cake cutting etc...I had asked her to take candid photographs mostly so we could look back at the day. It was done beautifully. Additionally Alison took group pictures and made sure all immediate family members were photographed. The turn around time was less than 48 hours with close to 300 pictures. I look forward to working with Alison again, she did an excellent job.
