I was born in Ukraine and have been a passionate shutterbug for as long as I can remember. My journey as a professional photographer began in 2015, and since then, my work has been featured in numerous wedding and fashion magazines.
From 2018 to 2023, I served as the head photographer for Neighbours of Ancaster magazine, published by Best Version Media. This role deepened my connection to community storytelling and refined my editorial eye.
In 2021, I was named Best Event Photographer by Giggster, Toronto’s leading platform for event and wedding venues. And in 2023, I was honoured to receive the title of Best Wedding Photographer in Hamilton from Best for Bride.
Today, I’m also proud to be the resident photographer and videographer for Hoop You Entertainment, capturing everything from live performances to corporate events.
Alissa is a Brantford, Ontario-based wedding, event and branding photographer who also services Hamilton, Cambridge, Kitchener, Waterloo, London, Woodstock, Simcoe, Port Dover and the surrounding area.
