About
Hello! My name is Alex, and I'm a full-time photographer based in Chicago, specializing in portraits, engagements, and intimate weddings. After years in the finance industry, I decided to pursue my true passion and left that world behind to focus entirely on capturing life's special moments through my lens. I shoot with a Sony A7V that has a dual slot memory card, so if one fails, I have a backup! I do not set caps on the amount of photos you will receive. If there are good ones, you can have them! All edited photos will be uploaded to an online gallery for you to download and print for your own use. I do not have a studio and prefer in customer home photos or outside.

We absolutely loved working with Alex! I planned a weekend getaway in Chicago to propose to my girlfriend and worked with Alex to plan an unforgettable engagement photo proposal on Michigan Ave. Alex was great communicating with me and met us at the agreed upon time at the Wrigley Building. She captured our special moment with such amazing photos! We couldn't be happier with the results. She went above and beyond any expectations we had for the big day. The photos are so beautiful and she is someone we highly recommend working with with no hesitation. Thank you so much, Alex!

Alex was awesome! Our proposal shoot couldn’t have gone smoother given that I was nervous and hoping my fiance wouldn’t find out before hand. Not only did Alex capture the best moments with great quality, but she also guided me through the process and helped me setup the surprise proposal and engagement. I highly recommend her!

Had an amazing experience with our engagement shoot! Nothing but professional and helped us really feel at ease since we aren’t used to these types of pictures. Would recommend to anyone!!
