Destination wedding photographer Aspen Allison captures candid, documentary-style love stories for couples who love to travel.

Oh, Hi!


My name is Aspen

A soul nourished by human connection and sneaky giggles. I am a mom, wife and rap music enthusiast- capturing and documenting spontaneous heartfelt moments. As a self-proclaimed people person, I love nothing more than connecting with others and leaving sessions with a few new friends.


My goal behind every session is to always come in as a bestie with a camera, and make the people in front of the lens as comfortable as possible. Capturing moments as they happen is where the magic is, so in between prompts and guidance you will get those unique photos of you + yours.



How I work


Guided & Comfy


Whether you've been in front of the camera a hundred times, or this is your first time getting photos done ever, I've got your back. I will help direct with posing and prompts, but most importantly I want the images to reflect your connection.


You can expect to receive a variety of posed, candid, playful, intimate images in your gallery. Check out my galleries for some examples of what you can expect in your final gallery.



Beyond the lens

 

01

Honoring My Matriarchal Lineage

I carry Indigenous roots (Cree) through my mom’s side — from White Bear First Nation, a Plains Cree, Saulteaux, Nakota, and Dakota community in Treaty 4 Territory. It’s a part of who I am and how I walk through, and see the world.

My Lifelong Love

My sweet husband and I have been together since 2014. Through all seasons, he's been my bestie. Lots of love, laughter, and a whole lot of growing together.

Mom Mode Activated

Our little man Marlow was born in the winter of 2024, a cozy and calm season for the sunniest little boy. NGL fresh postpartum was WILD and tough, but deeply transformative. Marlow and I continue to grow hand-in-hand.

From Educator to Creator

Before fully leaning into my creativity, I worked as an Indigenous educator in schools in Surrey, within Coast Salish Territory. I was fortunate to be part of an amazing team, and collaborate closely with local knowledge keepers. During that time, I had the privilege of learning and taking in the  Henq’qinemum language! I still carry all of the coastal teachings with me.
