"Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still." 

- Dorothea Lange

Hi, my name is Alison Meharg! Ever since I was little, I have enjoyed painting, drawing, and making art messes. I have always considered myself to be artistic and wanted to somehow make my love for art a job. For the longest time, I wanted to be a pastry chef until I discovered that you have to wake up at the wee hours of the morning and that was not for me. During my junior year of high school, I became intrigued with photography. I fell so in love with it that I got a Bachelors in Art with emphasis in photography and digital media from Seattle Pacific University. I love photography because I love how cameras capture moments! Without them, we would have no way of capturing memories that we can look back on. I love the feeling when you get a perfectly lit, perfectly composed photo! It makes all the hard work pay off!

I love to use the camera as a way to capture joy! Whether it be to capture a milestone, a celebration or an event, I believe the best photos are the photos that are natural and candid. These photos reflect life’s best moments and true happiness. I create art because it reflects life’s beauty and brings joy to not only the artist but to the viewers.

When I am not behind the camera, you can find me hanging out with friends and family, attending San Francisco Giants games or baking lots of sugary confections. 

If you are at all interested in getting some photos taken, please do not be hesitant to reach out! Let’s grab a cup of coffee and chat!
