ABOUT ALEXA

I'm a New Jersey based wedding photographer who loves LOVE. I live with my husband, Tyler, our baby boy, Ryan, and our rescue pup, Felix, near the Jersey Shore.  I'm a sucker for golden hour and coastal venues. I absolutely love to travel and have been to over 20 countries, from Ireland to Thailand. When I'm not photographing, I'm FaceTiming my sister, drinking Rook cold brew (half caff with coconut milk and less ice, please!), browsing Target or reading the latest thriller GoodReads recommends me.

MY WHY

I graduated from James Madison University with a degree in Media Arts & Design. After many failed attempts at my dream of becoming an editor at Seventeen magazine, I secured my first job  working in the glamorous world of fashion and beauty public relations in NYC.

Later, I went on to work at a tourism marketing agency where I was given the opportunity to produce several television commercials - something I never thought I would do but loved! All this time, I was also working side hustles in the wedding industry for a local planner and local photographer. It was so much fun to me, being a part of making a couple's special day come to life!

I started to realize that maybe my dream job wasn't becoming the next Anna Wintour. As a wedding photographer, I felt like the creative director of someone's dream. Having the ability to tell a story in a beautiful manner - through colors, textures, candid smiles and tears - then showing the story to the couple and their loved ones to relive over and over was what really lit me up.

I am a self-taught photographer. Every time I pick up my camera and begin photographing, I am overcome with joy to get to document one of the best milestones' in two people's lives. I am inspired by people and what makes them them. This is what I try to bottle up on each and every wedding day.
