Hi, I am Alexander

Capturing your love story of family and love.

I create a warm, relaxed and stress-free environment during photoshoots. I love working with children, including kids with special needs, and I care most about genuine laughter, tenderness and the small moments you will want to hold onto.

Serving Irvine, Lake Forest, Tustin, Laguna Beach, Newport Beach and families throughout Orange County.

Local Orange County Expertise

Light, locations and timing matter here.

A good session in Orange County is not just about a pretty backdrop. It is knowing when Crystal Cove turns gold, where Jeffrey Open Space Trail stays quiet, how Laguna Beach handles wind, and which Irvine parks work best for toddlers, grandparents and graduation gowns.
