"Alana and her assistant Christian were the perfect pair to photograph our rehearsal dinner and wedding! She kept great contact in the time leading up to the wedding. The chemistry between Alana and Christian kept us feeling at ease, which certainly shows through in the photos. They made sure to take the important pictures we'd discussed, but also made sure we had pictures with friends and family that we hadn't thought of. They dealt with difficult family members and our hurried schedule [somehow we got behind schedule...] with such grace. Guests commented on their professionalism, and I couldn't agree more! We have been treated to snippets of our photos and are so impressed with how magical they've made our special day look. Her creativity and eye are unrivaled. We can't praise Alana enough and highly recommend her for all your photography needs!"

-Erica Penna

"From the moment Alana walked in, she had a way of calming me and adapting to the situation at hand, while being very flexible with our constantly updated timeline. She gave me one less thing to stress about, allowing me to fully trust in her. The men all said they had a great time with Christian while waiting for the girls, and vibed well with him. When it came to shooting for the First Look, ceremony, and reception, Alana and Christian had a way of not letting us know they were there while still getting the best shots. They were extremely patient while we tried to gather family for group photos, creative in finding cool and different locations for shooting, and just had the nicest demeanors that made everybody feel comfortable and confident with them. It was a true joy having them as our photographers!!"

-Athena Page

"I cannot say enough about how much I loved working with Alana and her team. In our engagement and especially our wedding shoots, I have never felt more comfortable around someone taking my picture. Alana knows how to grab candid moments and make them GORGEOUS in addition to some stunning more posed shots. Every photo captured our personalities and the spirit of the day perfectly - there is not a single photo we did not love from our collection. Oh, and did I mention she's just a fantastic person who will help organize your wedding timeline for you? We cannot wait to work with Alana again for any other photography needs as our journey continues.”

-Mary Loliger


"Not only is Alana professional and on time, but she displays a passion for her art. She listened to my vision and we connected in our 1-on-1 which is crucial for a great session. As I performed, she didn't distract me with her angles. I almost didn't know she was there. Her pics tell a story. This is the beginning of a great relationship. So glad I chose her for my Unplugged Event. HIGHLY recommend her. I've been looking at these pictures for the last hour or so. I have so many thoughts and feelings. It's amazing how you capture moments, the right ones. Your photos are like a movie. Or like a trailer. I don't know how you do it but I'm very, very happy with my decision to work with you on this project. Thank you so much".

-Drea D'Nur

“The most fantastic experience getting memories captured through her amazing photography. Thank you so much for capturing the true essence of Andrews’s personality. He had a great time with you and everyone loves the images! Hands down best photographer in WNY, or anywhere else (and we’ve used a few).”

-Lisa Michael

"What an eye. What a woman. Always able to find the light that shines from within her subjects. She is always my go-to for all my photography needs!"

-Sara Rodriguez


“My family had the most wonderful experience getting portraits done at the North Street Studio. Alana created a safe, fun, and relaxing atmosphere for everyone--including some family members who don't love to be in front of a camera! We truly had a blast and are so pleased with the photos. I will be coming back again and again for all of my professional and personal photography needs.”

-Sara Rogers

"Alana was extremely professional, and relatable. She made me feel comfortable and sexy, and I felt as if I had known her forever. The way she knew her lighting and angles, created the best photos for me. I will absolutely choose her again for all my future photography needs."

-Mariah Danielle

“Alana always makes photo sessions relaxing and enjoyable, even though I am truly uncomfortable having my picture taken. Alana took a series of photos for me to use for work. Her studio is wonderful too! Alana has taken wedding, baby and family photos for my family over the years. It is always a pleasure and the photos are always outstanding!”

-Susan Dolce


“Finding an amazing photographer to capture our love on our wedding day was a top priority, and from the first conversation we had with Alana we knew she was the right fit. She made us feel completely comfortable during our engagement shoot, and knows exactly how to capture a perfect shot every time. Absolutely recommend and I look forward to working with her again!”

- KRISTIN DEROSE


”Amazing Photos & Day of Management for our Wedding. Alana was everything and so much more! Alana and her team are true professionals in every sense of the word, really demonstrating their craft and care for our day. We plan to hire her for all our future photography needs beyond our wedding. Alana is fully committed throughout the entire process from booking, to pre-planning, to the crucial weeks and days leading up to the day of. And I cannot say enough about her poise, management, and also passion for the day of. i never had to worry about a thing with her there and she made everyone (of my 16-person bridal party) and all of our guests feel welcomed, comfortable, and encouraged them to enjoy our special day. And how she captured the activities on our big day are ABSOLUTELY a beautiful work of art. Hands down will work with her every time.”

- JENNIFER SWAN-KILPATRICK


“I had an incredible photography experience with Alana. I was unfamiliar with the headshot process, and Alana was kind, patient, and helpful. But above all else she was VERY good at getting exactly what headshots I wanted. She genuinely listened to all of my needs and hopes for the session and took them to heart. I couldn’t be happier with my head shots. I highly encourage anyone looking for a professional, artful and personal photography experience to choose Alana.”

- LAUREN JAY


“I have followed Alana's work for years so I knew her talent was unmeasured, but having the chance to work with her was better than I expected. Alana has an amazing ability to envision beautiful shots and provide guidance and direction in a way that makes you feel comfortable and fun. She listened to ideas from my fiance and me (including taking pictures in an old antique shop in the outskirts of town) and turned them into gorgeous photographs. She is not only an incredible photographer, but great company!”

- JULIA MARIE


“Alana and Christian are two of the best photographers I have ever worked with! They are professional and get the job done while having fun and showing their style. I chose Alana after seeing her in action in two weddings - one where I was a bridesmaid and the other I was a guest. Both times I forgot they were there, which is what you want - they blended into the background and did their jobs! The wedding in which I was a bridesmaid I loved Alana's calmness. A wedding day can be a crazy day and sometimes the vendors add more chaos, not Alana. She brought a calming effect while keeping us on time. She was open to changes in the plan and shooting locations based on what the bride wanted (and weather permitted). Seeing the photos after watching her take them live was even more impressive, she truly captured the bride's personality, the photos were not generic in any way.”

- JENNIE JONMAIRE


"Professional photographs are important to capture amazing moments in life. Too many of us rely on our phones to take pics. Trust me, Alana is not only taking pics, she puts her heart and soul into the moment. Not to mention her irreplaceable artistic fabulousness. Book her now!"

- JACKIE ANN


"I am LOSING it over these photos! [I've] been staring at them for 4 hours! You both did an amazing job and I'm so thankful you were able to catch all of the best parts of our day. I can't wait for Hannie to come home and see these!"

- ATHENA PAGE


"Girl...You are absolutely amazing and incredibly talented. These photos are to die for, all thanks to you. You have made me feel a deep love for myself that I have never felt before. All I can say is thank you." 

- VICTORIA DEDLOFF


"I would HIGHLY recommend Alana to anyone looking for a professional photographer. She really captures exactly what you want and works with you to create great photos. I used her for my wedding and engagement photos and felt so comfortable with her. Her assistant, Christian, is also amazing and was so attentive during the wedding. Overall I couldn't have asked for anyone better."

- KALISSA RONDINELLI


"I had a wonderful time during my photo shoot with Alana. She was very professional during our consultation all the way through to our actual shoot day. She made me feel so comfortable during the entire session. I look forward to working with her again!!!"

- TANIKA BARBER


“Alana did such a wonderful job with my photos. I came to contact Alana for a very special occasion that I really wanted to commemorate -- a major scar I received after open surgery. As soon as I contacted her she immediately contacted me back. We scheduled a consultation to discuss what I was looking to gain out of the photoshoot. On the day of she and the make-up artist made me feel comfortable, which is difficult for me because I'm very shy and introverted. Yet throughout the entire process she was very kind, warming, and encouraging. By the end of the shoot, I felt more comfortable with taking pictures. When she sent me the link to the photos I was blown away. They all looked so amazing and gorgeous that it was very difficult to select my favorites because I loved them all. In the end, I wound up selecting extras, which was absolutely worth it. Overall, Alana was nothing less than an outstanding professional photographer who goes above and beyond to deliver top-quality pictures. She's very responsive and communicative, and fully captures the essence of what her clients are looking for in photographs and then some. And most importantly, she's an absolute joy to work with, and I'm very thankful that I trusted her to shoot my special occasion (I loved the photos so much I actually cried because they were so beautiful). Hopefully, I get the opportunity to work with her again in the future.”

- NICOLE OGDEN


"My wife and I are so happy we chose Alana as our wedding photographer! Our day didn't go as planned, as I fell very ill the week before the wedding, but Alana and Christian were incredibly accommodating! They moved quickly to make sure we got the most important moments captured and worked with me as I needed many breaks. Alana is very professional and takes absolutely beautiful photographs. We wouldn't have chosen another photographer and look forward to using her again in the future."

- BREANA GERACE


“Alana is one of the baddest sistas behind the lens! You can give her a concept and she will knock it out of the park everytime! She is a consummate professional. I love the detailed way she operates her business. I became a huge fan upon seeing her work and knew we had to collaborate. We did and we shall again in the future. I highly recommend Alana Adetola for your Photography needs!”

- DOUGLAS RUFFIN


"Alana is an amazing photographer. We had pictures taken of our ailing pup and toddler - outdoors...in December...next to a lake - BRRR! Needless to say, the session was very short, but Alana's skill is evident. The pictures came out incredible!!! She perfectly captured the magic of the relationship between our girl and her best friend. <3"

“Alana did an amazing job for our wedding photographs! We were thrilled with not only the photos we received, but the experience from start to finish.

Alana and Shauna made our wedding photo process run smoothly and our friends and family have raved about the photos. We can’t recommend Alana highly enough!”

"I had such a wonderful time during my Boudoir shoot with Alana! She is a true professional when it comes to catering to the client and she makes you feel at ease, even in your most exposed state. Her creative eye and overall execution is absolute perfection! I have never felt so sexy, strong, beautiful and empowered then I did following my time with her. If you are thinking about having a Boudoir session, GO for it! You will have an amazing time and trust me when I say you will be in the very best hands."

"Alana - I just arrived home and your beautiful package was waiting! How thoughtful are you!? Thank you!! I can't wait for Jason to come home to see it. He will LOVE the beer candle...and he's literally obsessed with koozies! Haha. We are so excited that you are apart of things. Thanks again for your kindness and generosity! Xo"

- EMILY SHEEHAN


"I have worked with Alana twice now, for a band shoot and at a wedding. She is creative, professional, adaptable and super fun. She has consistently given us quality photos, and exceeded our expectations of both quality and quantity. I highly recommend her work, and will hire her again."

- KATIE WEISSMAN


“I cannot say enough about Alana professionally, creatively, and personally. She has gone above and beyond since the first point of contact truly making working with her one of the highlights of the journey to marriage. I really appreciate the high level of communication and willingness to answer my many questions while offering much needed advice. I'm not a huge fan of having my picture taken, but she made our engagement photo shoot so easy and fun. The pictures are more than I could have hoped for and I just love them so much. Alana is incredibly creative and talented. She is also one of the nicest human beings you can have the pleasure of meeting. I'm recommending Alana to all of my friends and can't wait for her to take our wedding pictures as well!”
