analog portrait photography

  • My first photo gig was schlepping gear for Shawn and Michelle when I was still in high school. More than twenty years later, and I’m still in love with love.

  • Film has the atmosphere filters attempt to recreate. Negatives serve as a forever back-up, even if the digital files get damaged or lost.

    I primarily use 35mm film, but enjoy bringing instant film (like polaroid) whenever I can. Medium format, as well as 4×5 film are available, please reach out for more details.

  • The 35mm film will be sent to Prisma film lab for processing. When it has been developed, you’ll receive a link to download or print your images.

    Through the photo lab you’ll be able to print at cost—there are no hidden fees when working with me. You’ll always receive ALL of the digital images.

  • I’m based in the mountains of rural Puerto Rico.

    In addition to my rate, if I’m leaving the island, I ask that you to cover the cost of any flights, transportation, and lodging required to join you.

  • FAMILY PORTRAITS: Asking kids to pose and force a smiles never gives the results you hoped for. For something real, photos that are elegant as much as they are totally you, in all the ways your family shines. 2+ hours of photographic coverage $1,750.

    8 rolls of film = more than 250 images.

    PORTRAIT SESSION: Offering the space, flexibility, and personal attention to create images that really work for you. Great for senior pictures, graduation portraits, and headshots. 2+ hours of coverage, and can accommodate multiple locations & outfit changes $1,250.

    5 rolls of film, which works out to more than 150 images.

  • Does the whole office need new headshots? Looking for a cheaper option for senior pictures? The Group Rate is flexible and can work with all ages. Group Rate: $1,000.

    The only difference between private and group portrait sessions are the number of images you’ll receive.

  • It depends on the number of people (or family groups) who are sharing the 2 hour session, each session divided evenly among participants.

    For example, if you want to get pictures made with your friends: 4 adults is $250 each, you’ll get a mix of individual and group photos customized to your requests. As a friend-group everyone will have access to all the photos. Around 150 images.

    MORE EXAMPLES:

    10 participants: $100 per person/family-group for at least 10 individualized images.

    5 participants: $200 per person/family-group for at least 25 individualized images.

    2 participants: $500 per person/family-group for at least 75 individualized images.

PORTRAITS


“Many senior pictures feature the same traditional backdrops and poses, however, my daughter had a dream of haunted art and album covers. Alex spoke her language immediately and was up for a collaborative creation. Alex can take a well-developed idea or a slivered vision and create magic with their talent, eye, and lens.”

— Kate, West’s Mom

“Alex was super kind; complimented the ideas I had and the poses I wanted to do. Alex made the process really fun and I felt comfortable right away. The pictures turned out the way I hoped… even better than I hoped.”

— West, class of ‘25
