Weddings are, at their essence, unpredictably beautiful celebrations of love and joy.

They are made up of hundreds of moments, big and small, that you will want to remember and relive forever- and of course, lots of dancing!

That's exactly what I am looking for when I am at a wedding. I strive to document the interactions and emotions that occur while gently guiding you through timeless and romantic portraits.

On wedding days you will find me cleaning messy hotel rooms, pinning boutonnières, fluffing the dress train, all while providing you with natural feeling and gorgeous photos that will always take you back to one of the most important days of your life and how it felt. Most importantly, I promise that we will have fun through the process.

MY RESCUE JAX

MY WHY

MY WHY

In 2010 I was a sophomore in college and my grandma was diagnosed with terminal cancer. I spent a lot of time with her as her cancer took over and her health became worse. On one occasion I brought a camera along with me to her house. She was no longer able to communicate. I talked to her, showed her my new camera and when I did my grandpa leaned over and gave her a kiss.
She smiled.
She was with us.
And I captured it on camera.
That was the the last time I ever saw her smile, she passed away 4 days later.
That is why I take photos. I take them so that you can remember the fleeting moments, the real moments, the joyful moments and everything in between so that those moments can last forever.

A wedding day can feel just like this -fleeting moments- gone in a blink of the eye. That is where my job comes in.. To preserve these moments in your history so that these moments are not gone forever, but forever here to stay.

Alex takes beautiful photos, and is super accommodating. She wants the best for you on your wedding day, and through the entire process. She did a wonderful job making us feel comfortable. She is so kind and fun making the picture process VERY enjoyable.

Heather & Michael

Alex is truly one of those people who is impossible to not love- which does so much for her photography! I was so nervous that I would feel awkward and not know what to do when being photographed, but she has an impeccable talent for getting you into your comfort zone. She gives you as much freedom as you'd like, but can sense when you're out of your element and steps right in to guide you. Even our entire family and bridal party during the photo taking was commenting on how efficient, friendly and funny Alex was.

Caitlin & Nick

I truly feel photography as art is super important, but it’s important to also connect with your photographer. Through our engagement session, all the way to our big day, she made us feel special and we had so much fun working with her! And I sent her countless texts about places to do pictures, outfits for engagement pictures, etc etc and she never made me feel like I was bothering her. You can truly tell she loves what she does.

MARGARITAS

On the rocks and with salt, please!

I am a firm believe there is nothing that a margarita (or a bubble bath) cannot cure.

READING

I love a good read!
I am passionate about English and literature. I was actually an English major for a year in college before I transferred to the art department to get my BFA.

When I finish a great book I actually get depressed for a few days when it is over. I love quotes from literature, too and I love hearing quotes incorporated into a wedding ceremony or decor.

ICE CREAM

Ice Cream is a complete food group in my life that I believe I can live off of.

Can I get an Amen?

I'm Alex- A Cincinnati based wedding photographer documenting human connection and love stories with a timeless and meaningful style.

Alex was hands down, by far our favorite vendor! Not only is she incredibly talented and hardworking but she is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. She was incredibly helpful to us throughout the whole wedding planning process. She was flexible and made sure we stayed on time so our wedding day went smoothly. She was basically my first vendor to show and the last to leave. She captures every moment perfectly. We love our pictures so much. I promise that you will not be disappointed if you book Alex. She is the best!

Lindsay & Ben
