Calligraphy by Ally is a calligraphy firm led by its founder, Ally Dunn. When Ally was only in fourth grade, her school teacher asked if Ally's parents could come in after class because her teacher didn't believe Ally had handwritten her own homework - that's when Ally realized she had a special talent for handwriting.

 

Paired with an artistic passion for working with her hands, Ally continued on to take professional calligraphy lessons at a very young age, relentlessly honing her skill level for decades. While her professionally trained background is founded upon traditional calligraphy fonts like italic, uncial and copperplate, her success now hinges on continuing to be a student of the industry - thriving in an atmosphere of new trends, styles and needs while remaining true to her classical roots. Her skillset has grown from writing small, simple cards to spectacularly detailed wedding projects and everything in between.

​

Over the years Ally has established a prominent reputation not only for her unique calligraphy skills, but also for her appreciation of ease of doing business. She recognizes that timeliness, responsiveness and an overall positive customer experience are equally as important as a beautifully finished product in our fast-paced world. Ally has worked with world-renowned brands such as Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdales, LaPrairie, and other International Fashion Houses.
