BEHIND THE LENS

ABOUT alexis

Photographer, chaos coordinator, and professional chapstick hoarder.

I’m the person behind the camera. A storyteller at heart, often holding a snack, always paying attention. I’m drawn to the moments in between the big ones. The glances that say everything, the wind in your hair, the hugs that linger when no one else is watching. That’s the good stuff. That’s what I love to photograph.

I’m rooted in the Lowcountry, where the sea breeze feels like home and front porches invite you to slow down. Most days look a little lived in around here. Worn-in jeans, a favorite tee, coffee in hand, and a bit of chaos close by. I’m a Jersey girl at heart with a soft spot for Waffle House, country music, and Kane Brown on repeat more often than I’d like to admit.

I’m also a mom to three wildly wonderful humans and two fur babies, which means life is full and the vacuum is always out. I gravitate toward neutrals and mixed metals, though pink will always have my heart. I love a good gym fit for the comfort alone, chapstick is never far, and there’s usually a song stuck in my head for days at a time.

And the serious things matter, too. I’m a proud Marine Corps veteran, a pasta enthusiast, loyal to canned Coke, a bulldog snuggler, textbook Libra, frequent visitor of the skincare aisle, and a self-proclaimed interior-decorating dabbler.
