Three Generations of Family Portrait Session in Milton, Washington

Drag me!

It is pretty easy to get caught up with life and lose track of how many years it’s been since your last family portrait.  I work with so many families that have gone years at a time without new photos being taken and it is such a blessing to help kick start that tradition again.  The Holmquist Family has quickly become one of my favorites.  Sarah is a dear friend of my sister, who then introduced me to her immediate family for some portraits a couple years ago, and then this past year we got the entire extended family together for even more fun.  We used her grandparents’ private residence and sat under an apple tree that was planted by the family decades ago.  It was a beautiful sunny day and opting to shoot on the family property made things even more special.  Thank you, Holmquist Family, for inviting me into your home to spend time with your family! 

ready to tell your story?

Hi, I’m alex! A seattle wedding photographer who’s been documenting your stories since 2009.

I fell in love with photography almost 20 years ago in a darkroom class, and that love has never faded. What started as a darkroom class in college turned into photographing my first wedding solo in 2010,and I was hooked. The joy. The emotion. The vows. The details. The people.

I realized quickly that my fulfillment came from helping people see themselves in a beautiful, honest way. I move calmly. I guide confidently. I know how to capture all the angles and candid moments without you even noticing. My couples often say I have “photo superpowers” because of how much I capture while still keeping everything feeling easy and low-pressure.


Some photographers find wedding days chaotic.

I find them electric.
