Dedicated: Allison C. Photography
If you ask Allison Cox what her favorite thing to photograph is, you won’t get a good answer. Most people love to photograph what they’re good at photographing—be it a table top or mountain top. But if you’re Allison Cox and a total natural with the camera, you’re good at it all so there’s no wonder you can’t brew up a singular response.
As far as we can tell, this Utah gal can do everything. If you were looking for an affordable and extremely qualified wedding photographer, Allison comes recommended. If you wanted some soft, candid photos of your babies, you’d be sent in her direction. If you were looking for fine art to decorate your home, she’d also do the job. Or, if you’re an aspiring photographer doing some soul searching, look to Allison’s blog for a dose of do-it-right inspiration or a lesson on pink tights in motion.
With images that are “action-free” (no fussing with Photoshop), light-filled and perfectly composed—not to mention exposed just right—a photography experience with Allison Cox means more time shooting and less time post-producing (better for her, better for you). And the BFA in Photography she carries in her back pocket certainly comes in handy if you’re looking for a photographer that’s confident and capable—so capable that she prefers film to digital though she’ll do either one.
Aside from the whole film thing, perhaps what sets Allison apart is her uncanny ability to make photos seem not only natural, but personal. She operates effortlessly behind the scenes, making sure she documents every little piece of your detail-filled day. And then the detail you’ll want to frame is the snow-covered branch she found outside the church doors that you never got to see.
Like we said, she’s an artist like that.

Allison took our engagement and wedding photos and they are priceless. She did some digital and some film and every picture turned out awesome!
