Alexis Rachel Photography is an heirloom portraiture studio
creating magical natural light images in stunning outdoor locations
I love to beautifully capture the parts of life that might otherwise seem ordinary. A romantic afternoon drive down the coast, picking oranges in the backyard, making cookies with grandma, a nighttime bonfire with friends.
These moments are far from ordinary to me. These are the moments that we will look back on and cherish, wishing we could live it again. Because time travel hasn't been invented (yet!), capturing your story through my lens gives you a visual representation of this time in your life and the journey that you are on. I hope you will invite me to document those sweet fleeting moments of life and to tell your story in the most authentic way. I can't wait to meet you!
Heirloom Portrait Photographer

I guess my obsession with photography and aesthetics started young with one of my favorite things...magazines. I would hoard them to carefully cut out inspiring shots and glue them into books. At one point in middle school I also had an entire wall of my room covered with magazine images. I just love looking at gorgeous images, always have. Now I am lucky enough to be someone who gets to create those images!
I took a very indirect path to get to where I am today starting off college as a fashion major and finishing with an interior design degree. Then becoming a middle school history teacher while planning weddings during the summer and now (phew) as a photographer. All of the experience I gained on this squiggly line of life has given me the exact skills I need to plan and art direct shoots, tell your history and story through the lens, consult with you on fashion options, work with shy and rambunctious kiddos, and stay seriously organized through it all.
I live in a small town in San Diego county on an acre filled with citrus and avocado trees. My husband Chris is my biggest supporter and my sometimes photo assistant. Together we share our love of travel and food with our daughter, who is becoming quite the little photographer herself. Reach out below, I love to make new friends!

V. Let's tell a story
Narrative storytelling photography combines journalistic and documentary styles with art direction to create master designed shoots to show you off to the world.
Whether it be your passions, your career, you as an artisan, a journey that you are taking, life's milestones, your family, your love, or a once in a lifetime trip, I am ready to capture it all in stunning style.
All narrative sessions are unique and for that reason costs can vary greatly. After a phone consult to gain further insight into your goals and dreams for the session, you will pay a deposit payment that allows me to plan your session storyboards, inspiration boards, and shot lists. I will present the total session quote based on all of the above at the presentation meeting. Costs are dependent on photography time, editing time, necessary travel, and procurement of wardrobe and props if needed.
Includes
-all pre-planning work to create the story as described above
-your full gallery of high resolution fully edited images (over 100)
-delivery via digital shareable gallery with print release
-ability to order physical photo products through the gallery store

"Wow, our family photos came out so beautiful! We loved working with Alexis. The quality of the photos is amazing. She made us feel super comfortable. She was very easy to work with. We loved her energy and how professional she was. She has such a neat perspective!
-Caroline Rose
"Alexis was such a pleasure to work with – from the first inquiry to receiving our gallery. She made my kids feel relaxed and comfortable, and really strived to capture just “us.” She has a real eye for lighting, landscape, and overall feel of the shoot. She did not rush us, and it was a great experience. The best part – the pictures were amazing! We now have a whole gallery to remember this stage of life. I can’t wait to hire her again to work with our family. Thank you Alexis!"
- Verenice Lagunas
"Alexis worked her magic and was so patient with my kids and took these amazing photographs...these turned out so much better than I ever dreamed and brought my husband to tears. Thank you for exceeding our expectations and for providing us with our first ever family picture."
