about Alexandra

I've been in love with my other half for 13 years. We live a pretty normal life, in a quaint home in North Portland with our dog, Tony and our daughter Charlotte, who we welcomed in the Spring of 2023. On days where I'm not working you can find me making a mess in the kitchen, testing out new recipes or getting lost in books. The introverted side of me enjoys evenings cozied up by our wood burning fireplace and trips to the coast or our family beach house at Hood Canal. The extroverted side of me comes out in my work, as I'm energized by capturing new families and couples in love.

I enjoy traveling and have been to 19 countries. I like the feeling of being lost in a new place, learning about new cultures and trying all sorts of ethnic street food. I also love being home; tending to my garden, working on home projects and spending time with our dog, laying in the grass. I think life is a balance of big adventures and little moments; both hold equal value.

I'm a huge empath, and feel moved by connection and friendship. I believe the most important aspect of being a great photographer is getting to know the people in front of my lens; genuine imagery will always be sourced from vulnerability and trust.


FAQs

Most clients feel this way initially, as being in front of the camera isn't familiar. With a little direction and encouragement, paired with the connection you and your partner share, you'll be surprised at how enjoyable photos can be.

I require a 50% reservation fee + a signed contract to officially reserve your date.  I book on a first come, first serve basis, booking up to 18 months in advance.

How do we reserve our wedding or session date?

I've had the opportunity to photograph couples internationally and all over the United States. Ireland might have been my favorite international booking.

After the birth of my daughter in the spring of 2023, I've chosen local work over destination bookings, and will continue to limit destination bookings so that I can better serve my local clientele and set aside time to relax with my family.

With that said, if you are planning a destination wedding outside of the Oregon/Washington area, don't hesitate to reach out and convince me otherwise. If it's a good fit, I will make the trip.

Do you travel for work?

4-6 weeks for portrait sessions. 4-12 weeks for weddings. I carefully, hand edit each image and work on each wedding/session in chronological order.

When do we receive our images?

How long have you been PHOTOGRAPHING weddings?

For over a decade. I've had the honor of capturing over 250 nuptials and counting.

How much can we expect to invest?

Wedding coverage begins at $7,000.
Elopement coverage begins at $3,500.
Family sessions are $1,500 & session bundles are available upon request.

Travel outside of Portland is additional. Reach out via the 'INQUIRE' page for a more extensive investment guide and let's see what we can make work for you.
