Over the last decade, Alisha has used these mediums to capture stories most notably as an award winning photographer.
Curator of beautiful stories, vintage clothing and french antiques. She and her husband Patrick have been married for seventeen years. They share three little ones, two cats and one dog in Mountain Brook, AL.
