Your Moments Captured

I am the photographer for the families who want to remember this moment. Whether a big life-changing moment like vows, the arrival of your baby, or the small in-between moments that will hold onto your heart so tightly, that you can’t imagine anything sweeter than right now. My style of photography captures the unique textures that make up your life. I will cherish these moments with you, creating a unique and engaging experience that produces art full and engaging images for your family.

HEY, I’M ALEC!

I am a strong, laugh-out-loud introvert who cries at happy movies and gets lost in books. I could eat breakfast, cinnamon sugar toast, and avocados every day!

I have been serving Seattle area families since 2013, and believe that your connections are the most beautiful thing to photograph. I love photographing newborns and families in their homes, but equally love meeting you for a favorite family adventure.

Photography is my way of storytelling, and when I look at a photograph, I feel the moment, and my head and heart rejoice in the memory.

With my lens, I capture the everyday details that make up my life, those moments that become my cherished memories. I am a witness most of all. This is what I do for my family, and what I hope to do for yours.

Sessions with me are fun and relaxed. Almost like hanging out with an old friend at your house or in one of the may beautiful locations in the Pacific Northwest.

I would love to meet you and create with you!

Testimonials

“ it seems like you never pick up the camera. You are so present during the session that it's like catching up with a friend rather than having a photo shoot. “ ~ client

"I don’t mean to get all weird and emotional on you, but when I look at my family, it genuinely feels like all of the dreams I’ve had since I was a child came true. And this entire gallery is the amazing little snapshot of the mundane-in-the-best-way dream life that we have built together."

- Tanya

"Moody, but in a happy way!"

- Cash

“She captures the reality of motherhood and family life, yet somehow makes that reality seem like it’s the most natural and beautiful thing in the world.”

- Evie

“Alec is such a comforting presence, you almost don't realize she's taking photos of you. My husband is exceedingly camera-shy, and Alec didn't even flinch, but got him to chatting and feeling so comfortable you'd never even know how nervous he was before the shoot. As a result, we have stellar images of those beautiful days she came over to capture a moment in our lives. And for that I will be eternally grateful."

- Merideth

"The photos and memories from the shoot were beyond my expectations. Especially for a Covid shoot done in my house! Alec somehow takes ordinary moments in ordinary places and transforms them into magic. I was apprehensive about such a close-quartered shoot being the awkward penguin that I am in photos. Thankfully Alec put all of us at ease and gave me helpful prompts. She listened for the specific captures I wanted and made them into stories. She documented our most carefree selves as well as our natural family dynamic. We are so happy with the results and the care Alec took with our family!"

- Tonya

"The range of expressions that cross my face as I looked through the book is so wide. I grinned, I teared up, I felt keenly the passage of time (just a month and a half!!) looking at Maya's fewer-teethed grin. There's a photo of Simone running in the backyard with wild happiness on her face, a look I've seen but never captured. It's so perfect. Thank you! I treasure these photo books so. "

- Sarah

"I was smiling and laughing and happy tears crying through the whole album. You have, yet again, perfectly captured the beautiful chaos of our family. Unbelievable. I also feel like I can look at my house in a totally different way and appreciate beautiful spaces I didn't know were beautiful -- like the split images you took between the two bedrooms!? Nothing short of artistic genius. "

- Kelley

“She captures the reality of motherhood and family life, yet somehow makes that reality seem like it’s the most natural and beautiful thing in the world.”

- Renate

“Alec quickly stole my children’s hearts with her warm and kind spirit and put our family totally at ease. It was a blessing to be able to see our family through her eyes. We have the images she took lovingly displayed around our home and they warm my heart every time I see them.”

-Christa
