I started Alexander Photography in 2004 just a few years after graduating from Columbia College Chicago, with a degree in Photography.  I have been a member of Professional Photographers of American since 2012, providing resourses and learning, and have just recently joined DPWN (Dynamic Professional Womens Network).  My favorite time of year?...the Christmas season...because that is when I host our annual Toy Drive Session.  I have been working with Westyn's Wish for over 10 years now, helping to collect toys to be donated to Advocate Childrens Hospital.   

   Passion has led me to this career.  I started by photographing weddings, and as my life transformed, so did my photography.  Now, specializing in Children & Family Portraits, Senior Portraits, Real Estate Photography, Event Photography & more! 

   My husband, Eric, and I married in 2001 and started our family in 2007 with the arrival of our twins!  Then, just a year later, we had our third.  Just a few years ago we added to our family by rescuing our loveable St. Bernard, Gracie.  

   I'm so lucky to have this creative job that allows me to meet some pretty amazing people and create a lasting memory for them and their family.  My goal is to not just take a picture but to create a feeling and a memory.  To look back at the photographs and feel joyful.
