- You did a fantastic job capturing that baby's spirit!
heart {no.13}
Several years ago, I read an interview with rocker girl Gwen Stefani. I don’t think she was pregnant yet, but she was talking about her marriage and plans for children in the near future. She asked “Really, what is more romantic than two people choosing to raise children together?” I know, I know. It can...
- Romance and love are right. Great shot
- Priceless. I LOVE this photo!
- She is a cutie! I love this picture of her!
heart {no. 5}
Don’t forget I’m a newbie at this blog challenge business, but hang in there with me. Today’s entry is a little different from the rest. Instead of making a heart, Beth my sister “found” a heart. Kind of like when you’re laying on a blanket looking up at a summer sky and you see a...
- Great hair style Beth and you know I'm a sucker for an abstract heart found in nature.
- Love is everywhere :)
- Excellent heart - and great update on your studio manager <3
the nelsons {just a peek}
Have you ever thought about doing a portrait session in the winter? If not, I think you should! While the flowers of spring, grass of summer, and colors of autumn are all beautiful, I have to say I do love me a wintry scene.
With this in mind, I’m happy to share with you a quick...

sara, owen, will, and charlotte {just a peek}
I’ve been living in Central New York for about two years now. Yesterday, however, was the first time I drove to Ithaca; and already, I can’t wait to go back. The drive was filled with amazing rural landscapes, which I hope to photograph in the springtime, if not sooner. I didn’t have time {to stop...
- "Whose kids are these??!!!!"
- If you can just hold still we'll have PIZZA for DINNER!!
- "I scream, you scream, we all scream for ICE CREAM!"
- "You just won an all expenses paid vacation to Disney World!"
- I "hear" 'Mom, Mom, Mom' ... 'Dad, Dad, Dad ...' Maybe that's just from my own personal experience! :)
introducing my amazing sister {and new studio manager!}
I’ve been in business for myself for about fifteen years… give or take. Throughout all of those years, I’ve been the girl wearing ALL of the hats… photographer (that is my favorite one), marketer, accountant, errand girl, editor, etc. If you have ever been in business for yourself, you know there are A LOT of...
- The pictures are wonderful. My cousin Beth looks just like she did 20 years ago.
- Good to meet you in New Orleans - wasn't that city amazing? I'll be in touch.
- Nice shots and great team! Congrats to you both!!! ABP, Chicago
- Thanks for the awesome introduction :) . I am so excited to be working with you! You have amazing skills as a photographer and with me working on some of the other things, you’ll be able to concentrate on the things you’re best at! Like you always say, “Two Pattersons are better than one!” (Of course usually we’re just trying to open the ketchup bottle).
- It looks like you guys will make a great team!
sara and jordan {sort of}
I had a great family portrait session with Jeff and his beautiful daughters Jordan and Sara. You may remember Sara from her senior portrait session! After the shoot today, we were talking on the front porch saying our goodbyes, as they were all getting ready to head home. At some point I glance over and...
- Adorable!
nils {just a peek}
Having a great time in Los Angeles, and today’s job made it even greater!
How lucky am I to have two dog portrait sessions in one week? Answer: Very lucky!
Here is a cute favorite from the end of our shoot. After a long hard day of modeling, Nils was ready for a nap…
Tomorrow, I’m off to...
bear {a sad farewell}
My dear friends and clients, Jen and John, said a sad and unexpected farewell to their beloved dog Bear, who recently fell ill and has passed on.
In their honor, I’d like to share some of my favorite photos of Bear. This first shot is a classic example of why we love our pet’s so much…...

Karen had the fun idea to surprise her husband, with portraits of their daughters, for his birthday. Happy Birthday Dan…
This is Jamie… I’m so excited to be photographing her senior portrait session in a few days. So kind and lovely!
This is Jamie’s younger sister Maggie and her favorite pet… Sweetie. Maggie has autism. I only...
megan & lauren {family portraits}
Megan and Lauren’s mom (the ever so charming Joanne), first contacted me to schedule Lauren’s senior portrait. Before that, however, we had a secret portrait session of the two girls, as a birthday surprise for their dad. So now that Tom has received his birthday presents, I’m delighted to share some of my favorites. Happy...
- Oh my gosh these pictures are amazing! Lauren and Megan you two are gorgeous! Really nice work Alice :)
abby’s birthday/graduation weekend {boston,ma}
Abby had a lot to smile about during her fantastic birthday/ high school graduation weekend; and this candy filled pinata says it all!
Her parents sure know how throw a good-time-had-by-all-kind-of-party! There was fun decorations that included homemade flowers and lots of balloons!
This next shot reminds me of the sweet movie UP! There she goes… up,...
family portrait in boston, ma {part II}
This is the second of three (maybe four) segments from my recent trip to Belmont, MA (which is just outside of Boston).
In my last post, you saw some photos that Diane had hired me to take of her sister’s family. Later that same day, Diane’s dear mom hired me to photograph Diane and her gang. ...
family portrait in boston, ma {part I}
This is the first of three segments revolving around a fabulous (working/pleasure combo) weekend I had in Boston, in early June.
My friend Diane invited me down to help celebrate her Abby’s high school graduation. Congratulations again Abby… you rock! I was so happy when Diane said that she wanted to gift her sister Patty with...
helena turns one {san francisco, ca}
After back to back trips to California and Boston, I’m finally catching up on my editing.
Jamie (Helena’s pop) picked out this great indie rock song for their slideshow. The song is called “Ageless Beauty,” and I think it’s a pretty safe bet to say the title describes both of Jamie’s loves… Helena and her mommy...
- Alice, this totally rocks! We absolutely love it - thank you!!
- These photos really capture this beautiful family!
- great pictures - i love how this was set up.
baby helena {sneak peek}
A few years ago, I was honored to photograph Piper and Jamie’s beautiful wedding at Balboa Park in San Diego, CA.
Can you say GORGEOUS?
So when I received Piper’s email requesting portraits of their growing family, in San Francisco, I was tickled pink!
Their baby Helena is sooooo adorable.
Piper and Jamie? Why yes, they are still gorgeous,...
[...] of my dearest wedding clients Piper and Jamie asked me to photograph their one year old daughter Helena. When I look at this photograph, I see romance and all kinds of [...]
luckiest dad in the world {los angeles}
This father and daughter duo, are the best of the best!
Okay, I confess I’m totally biased… you see, for the past four years, I’ve been lucky enough to call these two my family. There are not enough adjectives in the world to express how truly awesome Giovanni and Besso are! A few weeks...
- Dudes. Loved it!!! These pictures are the best! And Besso - love the solemn expressions. They're intense. :P
- sweet! loved it...and how perfectly the music and slideshow goes together! i'm very impressed. :)

Although I’m suffering from jet lag, I can’t wait a minute longer to give you a sneak peek of a very special father and daughter!
- Awesome pictures! Can't wait to see the rest of them!
the lovely della {central new york}
Is it my imagination or kids becoming more and more amazing with each new generation? Della is a such a smart, funny, and talented 14 year old! In addition to being an avid reader, young author, viola player, I think we can add modeling to her list of talents. Capturing these fun...
- Great pictures Della and Alice! Della you are so wonderfully unique and fun and I just want to hang out with you. I loved that Vetiver song as well. Keep going!!!!
- Alice, you know how to capture the beauty in people. Della looks very sweet and pretty. This is another example of your artistry and professional skill.
- What a great photo shoot. The beautiful essence of Della was captured by Alice's photographs. I think they are a great team - as model and photographer - they should be in Teen Vogue.
- Thank you! She is much fun and beautiful too!
- This rocks! What a great slide show - - and smashing photos of a smashing gal!!!! I'm totally impressed!
