-ELISABETH W.

“I had the privilege of having a newborn session with Alice Claire Photography. The entire experience was great. My baby was only a few weeks old, and I have a 2 1/2 year old, so you can imagine how hectic our house is. Alice was so patient and helpful with the children. She came fully prepared with candy to bribe my two year old for the shots, and it definitely worked! She got the exact photos I wanted and I will forever treasure the precious pictures of my daughters.”

-MARY D.

"Before Alice came to photograph my family, I warned her how crazy and high-energy my kids are. She reassured me that "real-life" photography is her specialty. And WOW, was she right. Not only did she have a ton of patience and understanding for my young twins, but was fantastic at reminding me about the beauty in chaos of our reality. She truly captured an honest, raw, and beautiful story of our family."
