About Me

Allyson is the owner, photographer, editor, packager, order shipper and everything in between for Gally Photography. She grew up in a little country town just outside of Fort Wayne Indiana where she spent a lot of time roaming around outside with her parents and two sisters. She went to Purdue University where she double majored in Photography and Advertising and minored in Organizational Leadership and Supervision.

Her interest in photography was apparent as early as the 3rd grade when she made a book (which still sits in her box of memories) stating that when she grew up she wanted to be a photographer. In high school she took three photography courses and won a Gold Key in the Scholastic Competition for her portfolio. During College she continued taking photography courses while changing majors multiple times. Finally she decided to take the leap and follow her dreams. She started building her portrait portfolio and after a year and a half officially opened Gally Photography. After college she started working for a commercial photography company, BFA Commercial Photography, where she continues to learn from professionals about commercial photography and lighting that she can apply to her own portrait business.

"Our family of 8 had fall photos taken by Allyson. She was absolutely amazing to work with! My 5 year old and 18 month old loved her and she got some amazing shots of them! She made us all feel comfortable and we had so much fun! Her communication is excellent, turnaround time is unbelievably fast, and her talent is raw and beautiful! These photos mean the world to us! We are thankful she was able to capture these moments for our family to have forever! I can’t recommend her more!"
