In case ya missed it, I'm Alexis :)

Photography has never been a question for me — it’s just always been it. Through my teens and into my twenties, the path has felt steady, clear, and instinctively right. I was lucky to be trusted with meaningful work early on, gaining hands-on experience that shaped how I see and document the world. I’ve been doing this full-time since 2022, and I haven’t looked back. What keeps me inspired is what’s still ahead — the stories I haven’t told yet, and the people I haven’t met.

My Philosophy

  • Inclusivity is always the top priority. All walks of life are welcome and honoured here. Every orientation, size, colour, shape, and age are celebrated, and deserving of their love being shared.


  • There is no such thing as an unphotogenic person, and a 'bad' photo almost always is the result of the photographer, not you.  Forget that cursed picture hidden in your recently deleted. Majority of my job is considering what would make you feel and look your best, so just show up feeling confident in yourself and it will go perfect.


  • I believe in a direct rather than posed approach, and typically just get you wobble around and then follow you with my camera. Of course, there will be some posed photos however the majority of the shoot you won't be focusing on me and instead focusing on the thing that really matters - each other!


  • Trends come and go however weddings are a timeless event and should be treated as such. I always prioritize keeping my photos and colours true to life, so that they can be appreciated for generations to come - rather than just your followers on instagram that year.


  • You aren't just a number to me. I take on a limited amount of weddings every year to prioritize each couple I work with, and provide the best service possible! My favourite part about being a wedding photographer is that often times I get to grow with you and your family after the main events, and I will continue to hold space and capture memories for whatever path you choose to go!


  • Life doesn't have to be so dang serious all the time, ya know? I believe humour is the key to happiness, and I lead my life + business with that philosophy. Luckily, I don't work in law. So you got jokes? Tell em.

My Travels

Sunset silhouettes a coastal hill against golden sky, reflecting warm light on wet sandy beach in Tamarindo Costa Rica

Tamarindo

/ Costa Rica

 

I went to Tamarindo with two of my besties who trusted the process and met each other for the first time at the airport! It set the theme of the trip since the whole week was filled with meeting locals and making new friends! The beaches are amazing and the people were some of the friendliest I had ever met!!

Big Island

/ Hawaii

 

My all time favourite place in the world, no place feels like Hawaii for me. I have never felt more at peace and one with the Earth than while being in Hawaii. I always recommend everyone to rent an airbnb and a car and see the island for yourself. AND take a look at the volcano if it's active :) The best place ever.

Santa Monica

/ California

 

I went to Santa Monica on a mission to meet my biggest photography inspiration and it all worked out! Throughout my stay I did a bunch of shoots and got to experience the California sun (and traffic) at it's finest. I have been to San Francisco before but the energy in Santa Monica was unmatched.

Montego Bay

/ Jamaica

 

I was invited to join an amazing couple for their destination wedding in Jamaica. It was truly one of the best experiences ever, and really confirmed my love and desire to travel. I continue to offer discounts for destination weddings in all places - as travelling alone provides immense value to me :)
