Alison Woomer Photography

Alison Woomer Photography is a wedding photography business in Highland Park, Illinois. Alison photographs weddings across Chicago, the North Shore and Wisconsin, and is open to traveling farther.

LGBTQ+ couples

The business is LGBTQ+-owned. If you want a photographer who understands that your ceremony may have no bride in white or no groom waiting at the altar, shared understanding makes briefing easier.

Who she is

Alison has built a career over many years, and she is described as friendly, fun and easy to work with. She has photographed weddings and events of all cultures and sizes, which suggests a flexible approach to different traditions. Her own line is that she wants to make your big day last a lifetime.

Packages and planning

She offers complete photography packages for weddings, built around hours of coverage and optional portrait sessions. Rather than assume how many hours you need, map out your day first. A ceremony, portraits, cocktail hour and dinner may fit in a smaller window than you expect, but a long dance floor evening needs more time.

• Ask how many photographers work your wedding
• Confirm delivery time and online gallery access
• Share a list of key relatives and friends for group portraits
• Plan travel and lodging if your wedding is outside the Chicago area
