Love

One of my favorite things about being a photographer is that I get to make people feel comfortable and beautiful in front of the camera, AS YOU ARE!

Trust me, I know how uncomfortable the experience in front of the camera can be. The time we have together is designed to bring out the connection that reflects the love you share, to laugh till our cheeks hurt, and to forget the camera is even there. After all, it's about the experience and the evening spent together.

*ask about boudoir sessions

I’m glad you asked about wedding albums, because I absolutely do. I love to see your photos come to life, and have wedding album options for you to choose from. Wedding albums are also included in a couple of my packages so you get the best rates on everything you might need.

Do you offer wedding albums?

For sessions, you'll get sneak peeks within 2-6 hours after our shoot because I'm too excited to see them edited too! The full gallery will be complete within 2 weeks. For weddings, highlight gallery of around 100 photos will be in your inbox within 24-48 hours after the big day. The week of your one-month anniversary you can expect the final gallery in your inbox!

What's your turnaround time?

Heck yeah! Knowing how your photographer captures and edits all the moments and details will ensure you're not disappointed with how your final gallery out. Make sure to ask in the inquiry form.

Can I see a full wedding gallery?

Typically, you should expect your gallery to contain somewhere between 20%-30% b&w images. It honestly really depends on a gallery. If you have an inclination one way or the other I’m happy to edit to suit your preference (just make sure to let me know ahead of time!).

Do your galleries only consist of colored images?

My main camera is a Canon R6, which is a high-end mirrorless digital camera. Most of the time I shoot with a 50mm or 35mm lens, but I also carry an 85mm, 24mm, 24mm-70mm and a 100mm macro lens. At weddings, I shoot with two cameras and always bring a flash for those fun dancing photos. And, of course, I carry a back up camera with me at all times, just in case!

What gear do you use?

I got you! I hear this from most of my clients and I can assure you that it's my job to make you feel comfortable while you celebrate and pop that champagne! I love to direct my clients and then give prompts to capture natural un-posed moments. My biggest tip, leave all the expectations behind and don't be afraid to be yourself!

This is my first time getting photographed. What if we're awkward? Any tips?

Frequently Asked Questions

- Mel + Jordan

WE ARE ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE AND PROUD OF OUR ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS. I CAN SEE THE WAY I FEEL INSIDE WHEN I LOOK AT THESE PHOTOS. ALEKS HELPED US CHOOSE OUR PHOTO LOCATION BASED ON PLACES WE TOLD HER WE LOVED. OUR SESSION FELT MOST LIKE AN AFTERNOON DATE AND WE ENDED UP LISTENING TO ANIMALS AND WATCHING STARS WHEN WE WERE FINISHED. WE HAD SNEAK PEAKS THE NEXT DAY AND OUR WHOLE ALBUM SO QUICKLY. 5 STARS FOR YOU, ALEKS! YOU ARE WONDERFUL.

ALEKS IS THE BEST PHOTOGRAPHER A GIRL COULD DREAM OF. NO EXAGGERATION! I FOUND HER ON INSTAGRAM TO TAKE OUR ENGAGEMENT PICTURES WHILE WE WERE TOURING MONTANA, AND SHE WAS SO EASY-GOING AND HER WORK WAS SO BEAUTIFUL, WE KNEW WE HAD TO BOOK HER IMMEDIATELY FOR OUR WEDDING IN TEXAS. AND SHE DELIVERED! JUST FROM THE SNEAK PEEKS ALONE, WE ARE SO HAPPY WITH OUR DECISION TO HIRE HER. YOU WON’T FIND ANY CHEESY POSES, OR DARK AND MOODY FILTERS. SHE CAPTURES PURE, CANDID LOVE BETWEEN TWO PEOPLE, AND ADDS SO MUCH WARMTH TO HER PHOTOS THAT YOU’D THINK WE WERE LIVING IN AN ETERNAL GOLDEN HOUR. MY HUSBAND AND I ALREADY AGREED THAT WE WILL USE HER TO CAPTURE ALL OF OUR MAJOR LIFE EVENTS FROM HERE ON OUT! SHE MADE EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN OUR WEDDING PARTY COMFORTABLE IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA. WE CANNOT RECOMMEND HER ENOUGH, BUT WE WILL SURELY TRY!

- Brooke + Troy

IF YOU WANT THE BEST PHOTOS/EXPERIENCE BOOK ALEKS AS YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER!! SHE IS NOT ONLY INCREDIBLY TALENTED BUT SO KIND. YOU COULD NOT EVEN SEE IN OUR PHOTOS THAT MY FIANCÉ AND I WERE NERVOUS FOR OUR ENGAGEMENT SESSION. SHE MADE US FEEL SO COMFORTABLE AND RELAXED. AT ONE POINT MY FIANCÉ WAS IN TEARS HE WAS LAUGHING SO HARD AND HAVING SO MUCH FUN. SHE CENTERS THE SHOOT AROUND YOU, YOUR PARTNER AND YOUR LOVE FOR EACH OTHER. WHICH IS WHAT YOUR WEDDING SEASON IS ALL ABOUT. SHE GAVE US THE BEST DIRECTIONS TO ACHIEVE GREAT PHOTOS. I DON’T THINK YOU COULD FIND A PHOTOGRAPHER THAT IS BETTER AT GOLDEN HOUR PHOTOS THAN ALEKS. SHE HAS THE BEST ENERGY AND WE CAN’T WAIT FOR HER TO SHOOT OUR WEDDING DAY!
