Intimate black and white close-up photograph showing silhouettes and textures.

my approach

 

This is storytelling for people who don’t want anything overly staged—just a real reflection of who they are and what this season of life *feels like*.

Every session is built on connection, comfort, and a little bit of magic. We can chase the light at golden hour or keep it cozy in your home. My goal is to create space for you to be fully present.


These offerings are designed to feel simple, stress-free, and true to you.

"The BEST experience! I have been following Mallisa with Eisley + Oak's photography work for months and jumped at the opportunity to book a spring session! I could not be more happy with the communication leading up to our booking and her expertise at the session. Mallisa guided us through the process and my daughters lit up with big smiles because she made it so fun! I am beyond happy with the beautiful images she captured and cannot wait to book again!"

"We had an amazing experience with Mallisa! From a personal and professional standpoint, she was fantastic. She made us feel comfortable throughout the entire photoshoot, and the results were absolutely stunning. The photos turned out beautiful—exactly what we had hoped for. Mallisa also took us to two different locations, and she did a great job capturing the perfect backgrounds we wanted. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for incredible photos! We plan to use her for all of our future photography needs."

A tender black and white moment captured beneath a sprawling tree as someone embraces their dog in a loving pose.

Kind words

"I reached out within a week to get some end of life photos of my sweet pup. She responded quickly and provided detailed answers to questions I had. She provided suggestions of locations and allowed me to select what felt best. You can see from her site that she is talented so I don’t feel the need to go on about that, but she is in fact as talented as the images show. On the day of our photos, she was helpful, commutative & so open and authentic. While I knew I wanted to use her business because of her talent, what I wasn’t expecting was the level of compassion and authenticity in working with her. While our circumstances of meeting was under a sad nature, it’s easy to imagine how wonderful she’d be in photographing celebrations."

Frequently asked questions

What should we wear for our session?

I always recommend wearing something that feels like you. Think neutral or earthy tones, layers and textures, and pieces that let you move freely. I’m happy to help you style your session—I even offer a wardrobe guide to make it easy.

Where do sessions take place?


That depends on the type of session. I photograph outdoors in natural light (especially during golden hour), or in your home for a more personal feel. I also have a list of tried-and-true favorite spots and am always open to new ideas!

Do you pose us? We’re a little awkward in front of the camera...

Yes—and no. I’ll guide you gently and give direction when needed, but most of the time I’m simply creating space for you to interact naturally. You don’t need to perform—just show up, be yourselves, and I’ll take care of the rest.

Do you photograph weddings?

Not in the traditional sense—but I do offer photography for elopements and intimate micro weddings. If your day is relaxed, personal, and focused on connection, I’d love to be there to document it.
