Kevin and I live in Maryland, about 20 minutes outside of Baltimore, with our daughters Payton and Hallie and our rescue pup Sadie! When I am not shooting weddings or families I am either cuddling with Kevin and the girls watching Netflix, getting my sweat on at the gym, volunteering with the beautiful souls at Araminta Freedom Initiative, spending time with friends and family, or dreaming of our next beach trip. We are lovers of light and beauty, capturing timeless moments that will last for generations.

It is important to find someone whose work you LOVE — but I also believe that it is just as important to find someone who will bring out the best of who you are within those photos. My favorite quote from Annie Leibovitz is “a thing that you see in my pictures is that I was not afraid to fall in love with these people.” This resonates with every aspect of what I believe in. I find it important to get to know you, find out who you are and what you both are to each other. Photography is my passion — I will never give you anything but my all.

With over 9 years of professional photography experience, I fell in love with love and the ability to capture it in a single image. I have always found change to be hard.. That is why I began to document. When I was just 14, my dad gave me his old canon and it became a piece of me and my story. I brought my camera everywhere!!!. Some people know me better with a camera in front of my face, than without it! I am not much of a journal writer, but my photos do the story telling for years to come, and that’s why I love it. I love being able to look back at images and remember the smells, sounds, and emotions that made for such a magical moment.

Technically my name is Alexandra, but my friends all call me Alex. I shot my first wedding in 2015- and immediately knew I had found my calling. Now, with four years of experience under my belt, I still pinch myself that I get to do this as my JOB! Pinning the boutonniere on your dad, reminding your bridesmaids to remove the hair ties from their wrists, and maybe even jumping on the dance floor when the Cha Cha slide comes on (it is my JAM.) I truly take my job as your bonus bridesmaid to heart. All the while, capturing beautiful images full of LIFE that tell the story of your wedding day.

I am a free-spirited, nature-loving, classical person who loves to capture the essence of the moment and the vibe of each wedding day.

I’ve strongly considered taking payment in the form of chocolate chip cookies. I may or may not have an addiction. In my spare time, you’ll probably find me drinking some delicious craft beer, stuffing my face with local food, and spending time with my friends and family. I love dogs but became a cat person when I adopted an adorable gray tabby cat named Chloe seven years ago. We recently adopted a second cat named Shrimp who we also love dearly. I’m an adrenaline junkie. I’ve been skydiving, ziplining, whitewater rafting, and much more. I live for the thrill!

I have been photographing professionally for almost a decade and knew almost immediately that weddings and couples would be my passion. I have a wide array of experience in photographing families, maternity, newborn, boudoir, and fashion, but my main focus has always been wedding and engagement photography. Aside from many professional developmental courses and workshops in photography I also have a double B.A in Music (Vocal Studies) and English along with an MBA. These have given me the knowledge, skill, drive, and professional development to run a successful wedding photography studio.

From a young age, I've had a vivid imagination and a love for storytelling. I would capture everything I saw in my mind, using those images as the backdrop for my stories. This passion eventually led me to pursue a degree in Film and Photography. After graduating, I spent a few years as a volunteer missionary, traveling across the country. These travels allowed me to broaden my photography and filmmaking skills by experiencing and capturing diverse parts of the world. During this time, I also began photographing weddings and portraits, quickly falling in love with this aspect of my work and continuing to shoot ever since.

Our dream to pursue photography professionally began with our trip to Alaska. We bought our first “real” camera and lens in preparation, with the hopes of getting some great wildlife portraits in the backcountry of Denali National Park. We enjoy getting to know new people and spending time outdoors in unique locations, capturing the natural moments of people in love and the faces that your friends and families see every day. We love what we do for one simple reason, we love being around people who are as much in love as we are. Yes, we know that was a lot of loves, but that’s what it’s all about.

I have been documenting and capturing the celebration of couples for nearly 15 years. The best compliments I can receive from my couple is first, how much they LOVE their images of course but also that my easy going energy and unobtrusive style is carried over to the couple and guest setting everyone at ease and feeling comfortable.

Until my oldest came along I only dabbled in film photography, but since moving to digital in 2008 I have been introduced to so many amazing couples, families, new friends and other photographers. Although chasing my kids around and preserving memories of their childhood is of the utmost importance to me, being able to do the same for every family and wedding I’ve been able to photograph is what makes this the most amazing job in the world.

Intimate wedding photographer originally from the coast of VA, but now based in the North Georgia Mountains & love finding new adventures while exploring the outdoors. When I am not hidden behind my camera, you can find me hiking up a new mountain with my fur babies, eating tacos, or spending quality time with my little family.

I enjoy capturing the small, yet sometimes unseen gestures & reactions as well as the pure romance between two people on their wedding day.

You are probably assuming my about me section will have a story about how I always wanted to be a photographer, I came out of the womb holding a camera, but that couldn’t be me. I stumbled into it, literally. I had no plans to become a wedding photographer. I was either going to follow my dad’s path and go to dental school, or become a social worker. But a freshman in college decided to shoot a few photos for fun, and now over eight years and almost 200 weddings later, I could not imagine myself doing anything else. This is my dream job!
