BEHIND THE LENS

ABOUT alexis

Photographer, chaos coordinator, and professional chapstick hoarder.

I’m the gal behind the camera—part storyteller, part snack holder, part hype girl. I live for the quiet moments in between the big ones: the squeeze-your-hand glances, the wind-blown hair, the teary hugs no one else sees. That’s the good stuff. That’s what I love to photograph.

Rooted in the Lowcountry, where the sea breeze feels like home and the porch is my happy place. Most days, you’ll find me soaking in the salty air in my favorite worn-in jeans and a tee, coffee in hand and chaos nearby. I’m a Jersey girl at heart with a soft spot for Waffle House, country music vibes, and Kane Brown on repeat (like, embarrassingly often).

I’m also a mom to three wild and wonderful humans and two fur babies—which means I’m never bored and I’m always vacuuming. Neutrals and mixed metals are my jam, but pink is my forever favorite. I live for a good gym fit, but it’s mostly for the comfort (zero reps were harmed in the wearing of these leggings). You’ll never catch me without chapstick nearby, and chances are I’m humming some TikTok song that’s been stuck in my head for a week straight.

Oh, and the serious stuff? I’m a proud Marine Corps veteran, pasta enthusiast, canned Coke loyalist, bulldog snuggler, textbook Libra, skincare aisle regular, and self-proclaimed interior-decorating dabbler.
