Alyssa B. Young


After spending three years in Northern Italy, my husband Joseph and I settled in Fort Worth, Texas. We share our home with a cat named Leonardo (da Vinci), a dog named Cory, and a turtle named Lazar Wolf.

I've been lucky enough to travel all over the world (my favorite trips were to Paris, Japan, and Egypt). Now I've resumed my job as a full-time student studying English Literature with plans to receive a M.S. in Library Science in 2013. My favorite author is F. Scott Fitzgerald.

My mom taught me to knit when I was 14, and I've since learned to sew, crochet, embroider, and paint (not very well).

I bought a DSLR in 2008 to better preserve my travels. Photography as a hobby has expanded in a way I never imagined at the time. If you are in the DFW area and would like to help me grow even further by setting up a portrait session, please contact me: alyssa[at]alyssabyoung[dot]com
