Hey, I’m Allison!

Dallas Mavericks Photographer · Dallas–Fort Worth

I’m a Dallas–Fort Worth based photographer with a love for capturing the moments that actually feel like you. Whether I’m courtside at a basketball game, shooting content for a brand, photographing a restaurant’s newest dish, or documenting a milestone worth remembering, I’m always looking for the little moments that tell a bigger story.

My style is candid, intentional, and story-driven — with just enough direction to make you feel comfortable without making anything feel overly posed.

A Little About Me

Photography has given me the opportunity to work across a little bit of everything — sports, brands, food, events, couples, portraits, and lifestyle. I currently work with the Dallas Mavericks as an Assistant Photographer and Photo Editor, where I help capture and tell the story of the team both on and off the court.

My background also includes influencer marketing and brand content, where I’ve worked alongside restaurants, athletes, celebrities, influencers, and talent teams to bring campaigns to life. That experience taught me how to think about photography from both sides of the camera — creating something that looks great while also understanding the story, brand, and purpose behind it.

Food Is Kind of My Thing, Too

When I’m not shooting sports or people, there’s a good chance I’m photographing something I’m about to eat.

I’m also the creator behind DallisonEats, my DFW food page where I combine two of my favorite things: photography and food. Through it, I’ve had the chance to work with restaurants throughout DFW, creating content that makes people want to stop scrolling and start making dinner plans.

And yes, I absolutely take the photo before anyone is allowed to touch the food.

What I Love to Photograph

I’m drawn to photos that have personality. The laugh that happens right after the “official” photo. The reaction after a huge play. The chaos happening behind the scenes. The tiny details you didn't realize you'd want to remember.

I photograph everything from sports and events to couples, engagements, portraits, restaurants, brands, and lifestyle content — but no matter what I’m shooting, my goal is the same: create images that feel natural, tell a story, and still mean something years from now.

When I’m Not Behind the Camera…

You can probably find me trying a new restaurant somewhere in DFW, playing basketball, traveling, hanging out with my wife, or taking entirely too many photos of my dog and cat.

I’m a big believer that the best photos happen when people feel comfortable enough to actually be themselves — so expect me to keep things relaxed, give you direction when you need it, and probably make a few dumb jokes along the way.

Let’s Make Something Good

Whether you’re celebrating something big, building a brand, launching a new menu, or simply want photos that feel like you, I’d love to help tell your story.

Come as you are. I’ll take care of the photos.
