Yankee Photographer Proves Worth

Alison Birk is a native of Michigan and a graduate of St. Bonaventure University in western New York. There she studied journalism. After working at The Buffalo News and The Detroit News, she moved to Mississippi and took a job at The Clarion-Ledger. She now works as a page designer at The Clarion-Ledger, but photography is her real passion.

Not surprisingly, her style is photojournalistic. She prefers to catch candid life moments over posed shots ... And in no better setting than a wedding can candid moments be caught on film and remembered.

I was lucky enough to work with this woman during a shoot in Vicksburg, Miss. Her approach and style are superb, and her ability to work with the subjects is outstanding. A real asset to have ... although I hate that she will soon by my COMPETITION! :)

I wish her the best of luck, and I hope to have her services for another wedding or two before she sets sail on her own!
