Welcome
A NOTE ABOUT ALEXIS
Hello and welcome! I am Alexis, a wedding and family photographer now serving Washington DC, Virginia, and destinations beyond! I create classic, elegant, natural images that tell the joyful story of your marriage, your family as it continues to grow, and all of the moments - both big and small - in between. I'm a wife and mom to two littles, and my Mediterranean roots run deep. I am passionate about hospitality and serve my clients beyond their wedding day. I make my business personal and look forward to meeting you!
An in-home session might be the best option for you if you're not able to adjust nap time, your child doesn't nap, or if you have a newborn. Home sessions are incredibly personal and meaningful, and your place doesn't need to be super clean, styled, or large in order to create beautiful images! In-home sessions have more flexible dates, and they typically start at around 10 a.m. (but we can adjust this if a different time is better for your child or the light in your home.) Most of the session will take place inside due to harsh midday light, but if the weather cooperates, we can hop outside for a few photos right outside your home as well.
In-Home Sessions
A NOTE about
Outdoor sessions are timed to capture the gorgeous light right after sunrise or before sunset.
For my family clients with young kids, who happen to be morning people (like me :) My past clients have had success by quietly picking up their children from bed and taking them straight to the car. Once they reached photo location, they would slowly wake the children with a simple breakfast snack (i.e. pouches, a muffin, apple slices, etc.) to eat just before getting dressed.
For my family clients with young kids, who prefer sunset portraits: My past clients have found success in pushing back nap time in the week leading up to the session. With a well-rested child, a full belly, and plenty of games up my sleeve, we'll have a great time! :)
