Hi there, mama! I'm Alison, and let me tell you, my heart bursts with joy every time I witness a toddler's world. Remember that infectious giggle fit over bubbles? Or the epic melt-down because "those simply aren't MY shoes!"

Those hilarious, messy, magical moments – toddlerhood is a whirlwind we never want to forget. But the truth is, it's also fleeting. Blink twice, and your little one is sporting a brand new gap-toothed grin and a newfound independence.

That's why I created The Real Life Project: Toddler Edition. I understand you, mama. You're busy, but you cherish these precious moments more than anything. You want to preserve these memories not just for yourself, but for your child, too. You want to see their tiny handprints frozen in time, their infectious laughter echoing through your home, their personalities sparkling through every image.

With over 7 years of experience professionally documenting families, I specialize in capturing the authentic magic of toddlerhood. No forced smiles or awkward poses, just pure, unfiltered joy. Think candid moments: the way your toddler lights up at bedtime stories, the pure wonder of exploring a puddle, the fierce concentration while building a block tower.

Let me help you create heirlooms that will last a lifetime. Imagine cozying up on the couch with your child years down the road, reliving these precious moments through stunning photos. You'll see yourself in their eyes, and your heart will melt all over again.

Because these moments are precious, mama. Let's capture them together.

Hugs and high fives (and maybe a few coffee breaks!),
