The Photographer

A young woman with long dark hair smiling and holding a camera outdoors in a park or wooded area.

Hello! I'm Alexis, a portrait photographer currently servicing Springfield, MO and soon to be servicing Jupiter, FL in the spring of 2026!

My approach to portrait photography is personal, intentional, & faith driven. I take the time to get to know you, curate a session that feels genuine, and capture images that authentically tell your story. I will guide you the whole way, implementing a beautiful mix of both posed and candid prompts (so you never have to worry if you "aren't sure how to stand").

I am easy to reach via the contact form here on my website. If you have any questions or simply want more information, I would love to chat with you!

FAQs

  • How do I book a session?

    You can inquire directly through my contact form — just share what type of session you’re interested in, your preferred date(s), and any ideas or locations you have in mind. I’ll follow up within 24–48 hours to confirm availability and help plan the details.

  • What happens if the weather doesn’t cooperate?

    If it rains, we’ll reschedule for the soonest available date that works for both of us — no stress, no extra fee. I want your photos to feel natural and true to your story, and sometimes that means waiting out the weather.

  • Where do sessions take place?

    Most of my sessions are outdoors in natural light — parks, fields, downtown, or anywhere that feels like you.

    We will work together to choose a location you are happy with. I’m always ready to suggest locations that fit your vision or travel to a meaningful spot.

  • What should we wear?

    I send all clients a styling guide after booking with tips on colors, textures, and coordination. I also offer personalized wardrobe consultations if you’re still not sure! My goal is for you to feel confident & comfortable.

  • What if I feel awkward in front of the camera?

    Totally normal — honestly, most people do! That’s where I come in. I use natural prompts and movement to help you feel comfortable so your photos look and feel like you. No stiff posing here — just real connection and emotion.

  • How do I save & print my images?

    Proper downloading and care are so important to keep your images looking their best! When your final gallery is delivered, you’ll receive a Print & Cropping Care Guide that walks you through exactly how to download, store, and print your photos for the best quality.

    This guide includes tips on where to print, how to avoid unwanted cropping, and how to preserve your images long-term — so your memories stay beautiful for years to come.

  • How many images will I receive?

    Each package includes a minimum guaranteed number, but I always deliver more when possible. You’ll get each image that helps tell your story — all professionally edited and delivered in a high-resolution online gallery.

  • When will I receive my photos?

    Your final gallery is typically delivered within 2–4 weeks (or sooner for smaller sessions). I also offer rush delivery (48-72 hours) for $75 if you need your images faster!

  • How will I change outfits on location?

    Depending on your session type, you can plan 1–2 outfits for variety. My Signature sessions include unlimited changes — perfect if you want different looks.

    If your session includes an outfit change without a restroom nearby, I will carry a pop-up privacy pod for quick and easy outfit changes on the go.

  • Do you travel?

    Absolutely. Travel fees may apply for locations outside a certain radius, but we’ll go over everything with complete transparency before booking.

  • Do you photograph events or showers?

    Yes! I offer coverage for baby showers, birthdays, reunions, and other special milestones. Visit the More page in my services tab for details or reach out for a custom quote if your event is larger or unique.

  • Can I bring something personal to my session?

    Definitely! Bringing props or items that reflect you — like a favorite book, a guitar, your cap and gown, or even something that ties into your story — adds a personal touch to your photos. These details help make your gallery feel authentic and unique to you. Just let me know ahead of time so we can plan for it!
