Defiance, Ohio based documentary wedding & lifestyle photographer

Blending gentle guidance and unscripted connection to create emotive, story-driven imagery.

Your Authentic Wedding Photography Experience

The soft rustle of your dress as you walk toward your forever. The squeeze of your best friend’s hand before you take a deep breath. The warmth of golden light hitting your skin as you say, “This is it.”
It may seem like your wedding day is still forever away, but before you know it, you’ll be wrapped in the arms of your favorite person, dancing under the stars, wishing the night would never end.

I know exactly how it feels to hold equal parts excitement and overwhelm — dreaming of every little moment while wondering how to bring it all together. Finding someone who gets your vision and documents it with care? That’s not easy.

But with my signature blend of intuitive storytelling and cinematic artistry, I’ll deliver an emotional, effortless Northwest Ohio wedding photography experience — without the forced poses or stiff energy you’re hoping to avoid.

I can’t wait to show you what’s possible when your story is told with feeling.

I'm Alexandria!

A documentary photographer rooted in Defiance, Ohio. I'm drawn to the wild, the tender, and the beautifully ordinary. I believe there's holiness in the everyday—quiet moments, deep connection, golden light. My heart is to serve with love and intention, creating space for you to just be while I preserve the story God is writing in your life. Let's make something honest and lasting—an heirloom of your right-now.

"Alexandria and her crew are very attentive to details, professional and friendly! Very flexible and amazing to work with for us and my wedding couples! Obvious to me, my clients are their top priority throughout their wedding day and they go out of their way to get those extra special moments on film. They had even jumped in to assist my crew with last minute decorations when our families got a little behind schedule! Fabulous to work with and looking forward to working with them in the future!!!"
