Behind the Lens
Hi! I'm Alyss /A.LEASE/.
I am wife, mom of 4, and lead photographer behind the lens of JBP.
A quick get to know "me": I live in the same town I grew up in, and love every inch of our surroundings. I love summer and sitting on the beach - but fall is my favorite time of year for sure. I laugh at almost everything I say. Believe it or not, I was once a bouncer at the House of Blues, Atlantic City. #hobfamforever I love all things Disney, watching movies on repeat, and listening to reality podcasts. My kids are 8, 8, 6, & 4; mom's I get it. You can trust me when I say, this is a no judgement zone.
Life isn't always instagram-able; sometimes it's downright stressful. But, if I have learned anything in the last 10+ years doing this thing - it is that your session doesn't have to be that way.
Your family can play, read a book, and laugh a lot; just let the moments happen! With me you can breathe easy. Plan your outfits, come looking incredible, and let me show you how it's done.
Between me and my girl Samantha, you will get all the shots you need, plus many more that you didn't even know you wanted. This isn’t my first time, but if it’s yours, trust me - I got you.

It’s is absolutely no surprise to me JustBe has a 5 star rating. I’d give her 100 stars if I could because that’s what she does for us when she does our photos. She gives 100% of her time, attention, patience, artistic vision, creativity, sense of humor,and so so much more. Our first time ever doing professional photos and with her guidance it felt completely natural and the [engagement] photos in turn came out better than we could have imagined.
Alyss recently photoed our wedding and captured the day so beautifully! We had no doubt she would, but the entire album was just so spectacular!
Her skills transition from family portraits, to athletics, to community events, to special occasion(weddings). Alyss, with the help of Sam(also such a sweetheart), makes sure your pictures not only look amazing but allow you to remember the occasion so vividly just by looking back at the photos.
10 out of 10, would recommend in an Instant! #customerforlife

Alyss is the most patient, kind, wonderful photographer. She is wonderful with our kids! Our best family photos have been taken by her. She captures the moment perfectly and makes the whole experience relaxing and not stressful at all. I recommend her to everyone I can!

I am so glad to have Alyss to capture our moments, both big and small, as a family! She has literally been photographing us since we started as a family of two, and I wouldn't have it any other way! She knows how to make us laugh and capture us all individually to make our best shine even when things aren't going as planned. She is so patient, understanding, flexible, and does great work! I could never thank her enough for being apart of our family memories!

Working with Alyss is always amazing!! She is so great with my son and knows how to get the most perfect facial expressions and hambone reactions from him. I can’t wait to see how these turn out!! And will cherish them forever 💙

Alyss came to my house to re-shoot my sons hockey photos and was a delight! She made my son comfortable as he is shy and even got him smiling which is unheard of while trying to get a picture of him! Highly recommend
