I'm a wife, a mom of 3, and the storyteller behind Allissa Lakatos Photography. I believe in capturing real life as it unfolds: the in between moments, giggles, the tears, the chaos, and the calm. I’m all about connection over perfection.

As a mom myself, I know how fleeting the little things are...the way their hand fits in yours, the quiet moments before bedtime, the way your baby’s whole body wiggles when they laugh. Those are the moments that matter, and those are the moments I photograph.

My work is lifestyle and documentary-based, blending gentle guidance with honest storytelling. I’m not here to pose you into stiff moments or force smiles. Instead, I create space for you to just be: to play with your babies, hold your partner close, and breathe into the season you’re in. Whether I’m documenting weddings, motherhood, or family life, my goal is always the same... to tell your story in a way that feels like home.

My editing style leans warm, emotional, and earthy. Think cozy tones, moody light, and imagery that feels like a memory. I’m more than your photographer; I’m your hype woman, your calm in the chaos, and your partner in making magic from the beautifully ordinary.

I'm laid back, absolutely going to make an awkward joke & will be your biggest hype girl..promise. 

I believe that photography should be fun, stress-free, and a bit of an adventure! Whether we're in the comfort of your home or out in a stunning natural setting, my approach is all about creating a laid-back atmosphere where genuine moments can shine through.

Let's capture the laughter, the quiet moments, the adventure – all the ingredients of your wonderful life story. I’m here to make sure that every photo feels as real and vibrant as the memories you cherish.

hi, I'm Allissa!
