Get ready to explore with someone like me! Hi, I'm Alexandria!

I'm a Washington Adventure Elopement Photographer with over 7+ years as a local focusing on elopements. I'm a smiley, upbeat photographer with a wide range of expertise that ranges from nuanced details to well-known ideas and concepts about landscapes, trails, timelines, permits, light, weather and so much more. I’ve got an in-depth planning process to reduce your decision fatigue so you have all the tools to take your day from dreams to reality. I’m a Leave No Trace aware photographer which means you’ll be partaking in something bigger than your wedding day: the opportunity to make sure we keep these places beautiful for years to come so more couples can be like you! I'm in my romantasy era and so appreciate the epic places I get to work give the most amazing backdrops so your day can look like your favorite romantasy novel!

My Photography Style

Most of my couples tell me they are shy or don't know what to do which I LOVE. Real people, in real places, with real love. Through my process we get to know each other and this really creates the foundation and base for your connection on your elopement day. If you already know me, we're already joking and laughing together which means when I show up to your elopement day, you don't have to worry about not vibing with your photographer and even though you might be a little nervous before saying your vows, it eases you into my camera a little more.

And then when my camera comes out, I like to leave space for you, but I also give guidance. I give you general ideas on what to do and I want to make it your own. As we photograph and I see you need more help, I step in and give more help, but I also know when to step back and just let you be you! I call this directed documentary. I always help you find the best light and frame the scene for artful portraits, direct you when needed, but then let you be you!

You’ll truly be able to say: "Damn, we did that!"

Sage Trails Values

Celebrating Differences & Creating Community - I believe in creating a safe space for anyone and everyone. Everyone is different and that's what makes the world go round. We all have something to learn from each other and I want this to be an inclusive space for all!

Earth-Conscious - Leave No Trace is a big part of my business as I'm grateful to the land I get to work on and try to do my part to protect it and keep it accessible for future couples like you!

Kind and Collaborative Communication- we will get to work together a lot! I believe in collaboration as it's your wedding day! I lead with kindness, but will be upfront with any issues you'll need to think about!

Pursuit of Wonder - I wouldn't have this job if I didn't constantly search for magic would I? :)

    What to say about one of the most joyous and giving photographers I have ever met? As a Houston based photographer myself, I was looking for someone special to capture our Washington wedding. As soon as we found Alexandria, I knew we hit the jackpot. Not only was she immediately kind and understanding during our first Zoom call, but she made every step of the process so easy. From getting to know us as a couple, to scouting locations (and sending us IN DEPTH options), to sending us a Wedding Day Bible to walk us through all the steps along the way (OMG it was AMAZING), to just being the best day-of, Alexandria was a dream. I don't think I will ever need to hire her as a wedding photographer again (ha!) but I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking to do an adventure wedding in the Washington area. Also, I might just need to hire her to walk around with me next time I am in Washington because she is that good. Thank you, Alexandria! You shine!

    Where to begin!! Alexandria was an absolute DREAM to work with. From the very beginning, I knew she was going to make our special day amazing. Her detailed Q&A and guide helped us narrow down the perfect location. She was easily accessible with any questions we had and allowed us to feel prepared (packing lists, how to apply for permits, etc). Her plan for the day got us all the best lighting and made for amazing photos. The photos truly speak for themselves!!
    Not only was her work ethic and photography amazing, Alexandria has the sweetest personality. She easily blended in with us which made the day feel so comfortable and relaxed. I would rave about working with her all day long!! We can’t thank her enough for making our elopement a dream come true.

    Alexandria is quite literally the best wedding photographer on the face of the planet - and I never exaggerate! ;) Not only did she capture our day so perfectly, but she catered to our exact vision and went above and beyond. Since my wedding, I've been telling all soon-to-be brides that the photographer is the most important vendor of the day because of how much time you spend with them, especially during intimate moments. Alexandria was so phenomenal to be around on our day and did such a great job of making sure we felt comfortable, had fun, and enjoyed the day. Not only is she amazingly talented, but just an all around lovely human. Thanks Alexandria for making our day the best ever!!!

    Sage trails was the BEST DECISION I made in regards to my elopement!!!!!!

    Alexandria was such an amazing person to work with!!!! Throughout the whole process, she was so helpful!!

    We were very overwhelmed trying to plan and she really helped us make decisions easily!

    The communication was so constant throughout it, we never felt out of the loop or lost

    The day of it really felt like she was one of my besties who just happened to be amazingly talented at photography!!!!

    We laughed so much, had so much fun, and it just truly made our day that much more special!!

    I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to take photos!! She is 10/10! I’d rate more than 5 stars if I could!!

    I can not say enough good things about Alexandria! We were very picky when choosing our photographer - expected as my husband is a photographer! We really wanted someone to capture our day, not just pose us for photos. Alexandria went above and beyond anything we could have hoped for. After looking at probably a dozen photographers we came across Alexandria, loved her approach that she stated on her site and wanted to talk to her more. Right away during our zoom interview with her we immediately felt at ease. Her friendly energetic personality absolutely shined and we knew right away she was the photographer we wanted. She was unbelievably helpful during the planning process, as we were getting married in Washington, but live in Michigan. We also had quite a few considerations when it came to our location, and she was so attentive to those details. She was extremely communicative leading up to the day of our wedding which was very reassuring. Wedding day she was phenomenal! She explained her thoughts and ideas so clearly they were really easy for us to understand and see her vision. She worked so well with our family, and blended in so naturally, I don't even remember her being there taking photographs during the ceremony. After the ceremony we had a small barbeque, then went on a hike just her, my husband and I. We had a blast hiking with Alexandria! She was so fun to work with, time absolutely flew by. We received our sneak peek photos so much faster than we were expecting and they are STUNNING!
