AUTHENTIC ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHY
FOR THE WILDLY AUTHENTIC & MADLY IN LOVE
We are wanting to capture whatever season of life you're in, the way you're in it. As authentically as it gets. Life can be challenging and hard—it's also oh so rewarding. My life's anthem is to Brave The Journey, so let's come together and make some magic and embrace the beauty of it all.
I am an ear to listen, and a smiling face to encourage you and tell your story with my gift in photography—and with that gift, I strive to find ways to best serve you.
So let us grab a coffee (I love a lavender green tea latte) and chat about life or shoot me an email and figure out how to embrace the moment...
HOT TAKE: We aren't shooting for perfection.
Hi, I'm Alex!
I just want you to take a breath right now and know that this is a safe place.
WHERE to WANDER
I have been to all 50 states and have a few favorites! If it’s a park I haven’t gotten to see yet, I always research and go scout and visit before the day so we know what to plan for and expect. Places I can advise you in are Ireland, Scotland, and New Zealand. This year l will also be scouting Italy, Switzerland, England and Portugal! Next year I am headed to Australia! I cannot wait to share my adventures with you so I can help you plan yours!
Traveling shouldn’t be a retirement dream, it should be your three day weekend destination! Places on my travel list that haven’t been booked yet are Iceland, Norway, Germany, Belgium and Sweden! I can guide you through it all. If you can dream it, I can plan it!
MY JOB IS TO TELL YOUR STORIES AND LEAVE AN INDELIBLE MEMORY OVER TIME. I'M HERE TO GUIDE YOU TO THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIVES!
THE EXPERIENCE
There's no rules when you elope. We break the mold of tradition and follow wherever your love takes you. Why spend money on a party for everyone else and be too stressed to enjoy it, when you can be intentional and focus on just you and your honey. Having the experience of a lifetime, creating epic memories and having them captured to be your legacy. Showing generations to come that your new life was built on love and not expectations. Sounds too good to be true? It doesn't have to be! I help plan and take as much of the stress off as I can.
We're going to do things a bit differently.
Wondering where to elope? It is such a simple answer. Wherever your heart desires!
This is about you; this is about telling your story.
THE MOMENTS WHERE TIME STANDS STILL
I'm about documenting the real, raw, and authentic love — like when he turns around and sees you for the first time; when your loved ones get choked up giving their reception speech; when your new spouse grabs your hand under the table when no-one's looking, or sweet stolen kisses. My photos are meant to freeze time for just a moment, allowing you to truly remember what it felt like to be there.
I'm not here to create pixel perfect images, I'm here to capture the authentic moments where you feel most loved.
I've never been interested in the stiff and stale posing approach that we're all too familiar with.
HERE'S MY PHILOSOPHY
"This was our first time modeling in a styled shoot, she helped position us, kept us laughing, gave us the most positive verbal feedback and at no point were we ever self conscious or nervous. She even took the time to show us pictures which boosted our confidence! Working with Alexis was SOOO much fun, we will treasure this entire experience and these stunning photos forever!"
Alexis has been taking our family photos for almost 2 years now! She not only knows how to make my kids smile (or makes it look like they are in the photos) for the camera but makes the photo process fun for them! My husband loves when she does our photos, Because she catches our personalities, it's just real life. She is the best 10/10 recommend!"
- KACEY DAVIS
When I started my journey of getting my pilots license, I knew when I had finished I wanted photos with the airplane I trained in. Well the months passed and I eventually got my license, but I had put getting my pictures made on the back burner until Alex reached out and we made it happen! I got the photos back shortly after and was completely blown away with them! I couldn’t have imagined anything more perfect!

CLIENT LOVE
WHAT TO EXPECT
Our sessions won't be what you are probably use to. We won't be worried about cookie cutter poses or feeling too stiff. We will be using fun prompts and corny jokes to get genuine reactions and interactions with each other. Not stressing and just being yourselves. I get way too excited about creamy light and following it wherever it takes us to get those dreamy images you want to hang in your home or post to your feed.
More often than not I have to tell my clients not to worry about me. I get in crazy positions, balance on rocks or whatever is near and usually have to go barefoot to get muddy or waist deep in the lake too! If I slip or stumble I just joke that you need to laugh because I'll get the shot!
Just laugh, I'll get the shot!
