Super glad you’re here.
I’m a New York–based wedding and portrait photographer with a heart for storytelling, an eye for the in-between moments, and a decade of experience behind the lens.
Rooted in Upstate and Western New York, I work with couples who value connection, presence, and photographs that feel like real life — elevated. My approach is calm, intentional, and honest. I’m not here to perform; I’m here to witness, guide when needed, and document your story with care, intuition, and artistry.

hey guys, I’m lexi (or lex; whatever feel right for you.
I’m a 30-year-old photographer, creative, and feeler based in Buffalo, NY — and I’ve had the absolute honor of documenting over 100 love stories since stepping fully into the wedding world in 2018. What began as a quiet spark in 2015 turned into a calling I couldn’t ignore — one that’s led me across cities, states, and oceans, capturing some of the most meaningful moments of people’s lives.
I grew up in Syracuse, NY, in a house full of love, noise, and warmth — tucked between two sisters and raised by the most supportive humans I know, Chris and Patty. Being the middle child taught me to carve out my own voice — to show up, speak up, and lean all the way in. That energy has carried me through every chapter of my creative journey.
In college, I studied Exercise Science with plans of becoming a Physical Therapist… but the ache to create just wouldn’t quiet down. I’ve always been someone who feels deeply, sees the little things, and finds beauty in the fleeting. Photography became the space where all of that made sense — a place where emotion, memory, and art collide.
Since officially going full-time, I’ve traveled across the globe for destination weddings and had the immense joy of building lasting relationships with my couples. In 2024, I officially partnered with my friends at ML Studios to offer seamless, intentional photo + video coverage to the clients who trust us with their most unforgettable day. Working alongside other creatives who care as much as I do is one of the best parts of this job.
When you invite me into your wedding day, you’re getting more than just a photographer. You’re getting someone who’s calm in the chaos, who leads with heart, and who’s all in — start to finish. I take this work seriously, because these aren’t just photos. They’re your people. Your energy. Your legacy.
So, whether we’re running through a city street or standing barefoot on a beach — just know that I’m here, with both feet on the ground and my whole heart behind the lens.
