Welcome – this space is yours as much as it is mine, and I’m honoured to share it with you. Because at the end of the day, photography requires trust. It requires a shared sense of intimacy that connects us, together. And it’s only through this shared experience that we’re able to truly document what it means to be surrounded by your closest loved ones – those who know you best and understand you wholeheartedly. As your photographer, I’m here to be yet another one of those loved ones – a sentimental human admiring your story, here for the celebration, all while documenting it as such.

WEDDING SESSION
The flowing veils, the tears, the laughter, the love, it was all captured so beautifully by Alex. We added film to our wedding package and those turned out to be our favourite shots of the whole day. They are breathtaking and subtle, exactly what we wanted. Alex captured our wedding day with incomparable artistry. I would recommend Alex to anyone looking for something extra special in their wedding photos.

““Alex captured our wedding day with incomparable artistry.””
We LOVED every bit of working with Alex (Frances Rose West). From our initial call, we just hit it off and everything from there was smooth and easy. She was a great person to spend time with on our big day, made us feel at ease, had fun with us, and was very special. Alex sent us a great selection of first looks the day after our wedding which made reminiscing so fun – and the rest of our photos quickly followed. She’s a total pro. Her photos are some of the most precious things to us and Alex was just a dream to work with, highly highly recommend her for your special day or moment.
Sabrina and Colin
““Our photos are so beautiful, she captured ones that feel more artistic and keepsakes and ones that feel very slice of life - the candid moments of our wedding.””
Alex shot our wedding last November, we had a last-minute change of plans in wedding venues (about a 2.5-hour driving difference) and she was so flexible in accommodating us which goes to show the lengths that she’ll go for her clients. Ahead of the big day, I sent Alex some inspirational photos of what we wanted our pictures to turn out and she made those come to life exactly as we had imagined! They’re some of the most beautiful photos that we’ll cherish forever. If I had to plan my wedding again, there’s a lot that I would change but hiring Alex is not one of them!
Barbara and Aaron
““If you’re thinking of hiring Alex, what are you waiting for? Not only is she extremely talented but she is the sweetest and most accommodating photographer we’ve ever had the pleasure of working with!”
Documenting the moments that matter to you in the
places that mean the most
( WEdding & Lifestyle )
For nearly two decades, photography has been the lens
through which I’ve come to understand and interact with the
world. It has taught me day by day, to treasure each moment
as a fleeting gift, reminding me of the rare beauty that gently
sparkles in the moments that pass just a tad too quickly. As
someone who truly finds herself most inspired while
immersed in nature, I’ve learned that beauty isn't bound to a
place, but to the hearts of the people who exist within it. So
although my roots are in Toronto, Ontario, your story can
take me anywhere, for it’s not the place that matters, but the
souls who call it home.
