A few of my favorite things:
- My high-school sweetheart and now husband, Devon, and our two rescue pitties, Nova and Bucky
- Reading books and discussing them at book club with fellow book lovers
- You can find me watching One Tree Hill, Friends & The Vampire Diaries on repeat while editing if I'm not listening to an audiobook
- Warm, sunny days on the water or strolls through cute towns where I can enjoy yummy food, craft beer, fancy cocktails, and window shop to my heart's content
- I'm a huge Swiftie, so I cannot resist singing and dancing whenever a Taylor Swift song plays at a reception
Sooo... Do we have anything in common?!
Why I Love What I Do
I've been photographing weddings, families, and more since the summer of 2015, but to be quite honest, I never saw myself taking my business this far until I realized how genuinely happy it made me compared to the full time research job I had after graduating with a Biology degree in 2020. I absolutely love the joy that creativity gives me, the wonderful people I get to meet, and the amazing time I have celebrating some of life's greatest moments with you.
On your wedding day, you won't just find me behind the camera. I will also be there fixing your veil, laughing with you and your loved ones as if I've known you my whole life, and shedding many happy tears as you say "I do" to the love of your life. Nothing makes me happier than seeing the pure joy on couples' faces on their wedding day! During your portrait session, I will laugh with you and happily listen as you tell stories about your loved ones.
May this be the beginning of a beautiful friendship
My Favorite Wedding Moments
Toasts
You can always find me wiping away tears and sharing in the laughter when your loved ones give toasts at your wedding. I love hearing the stories, the jokes, and the sincere love that radiates in these moments. The union of the couple is obviously the most important part of a wedding, but the love shared between family and friends in celebration of that union is remarkable.
First Looks & Letter Readings
Whether it's a first look between the couple, a bride and her father, or a big bridal party reveal, this moment is so special every time. I love helping to plan the perfect first look, but when it comes down to it, they're always just so eager to see one another that nothing else matters. Not sure if you want to share a first look? First touches and private letter readings are also super special and definitely build up the excitement even more.
Details
Don't ever think that all of that planning was for nothing! Of course the most important part of a wedding is the marriage, love, and celebration, but the details make it extra beautiful and they are the perfect way to share in the interests of the bride and groom. From the rings to the flowers to the deserts... I've seen so many creative touches that make each wedding so unique.
Couples Portraits
Don't get me wrong, I love all of the fun in wedding party portraits as well! But one of my favorite moments is after the ceremony when I get to say "now hold your wife's hand" or "look into your husband's eyes" and the newlyweds look at one another as they realize they are finally married! I love being able to capture the pure love and excitement in these private moments.

"Alexis is an absolute dream to work with! I originally found her on Instagram and when I saw that she was local I knew she had to be our wedding photographer! She is fun to be around and kept our wedding portraits running smoothly. Her editing style is everything I was looking for: light, bright, and simply gorgeous. I heard from several guests about how impressed they were with her. She somehow managed to be everywhere at once and captured all of the most perfect moments of our big day. She makes everyone around her feel comfortable and worked so well with everyone from our 9 month old flower girl to my husband’s grandparents. I cannot wait for her to capture our family for years to come! And to put a bow on the already perfect package that is AMP, she’s a Swiftie!!"

“Alexis was perfect for our wedding of about 80 people. She was the definition of professional, arriving right on time and staying through the entire reception until the final dance. She answered all emails and questions in a very timely manner. She worked with us to ensure all the photos we wanted (posed, candids, objects) were captured. Alexis was very easy to work with and photographed our wedding beautifully.”

“Alexis is a professional through and through. Our wedding, celebrated October 2022 was such a success because Alexis not only captured the moments that we will treasure forever, but she also made herself available in all other aspects of the planning that made the whole day and experience go without a hitch. From recommendations of vendors to the beautiful photography, Alexis helped make this wedding what it was. If you’re looking for a professional photographer who will devote their attention and time, professionalism, and genuine concern for you and your event look no further.”

“Alexis does such a great job all around! She is so easy to talk to and work with. She took such beautiful engagement and wedding photos, better than we could ask for! My husband and I are not picture people and we felt super comfortable, she makes you laugh, and just very easy to take the pictures with. You can tell with her work how much she cares about your photos, she really takes the time to make sure each and everyone is perfect. It is clear this is more than a job to her!”
