Every Frame,

every emotion.

The one behind the camera

Woman in white dress standing at beach during sunset, cinematic portrait with soft natural light

I’m Alexa Shotts, a Portland, Oregon based cinematic photographer with a passion for capturing love stories inspired by music and film. I believe all the wonderful moments in life deserve to be captured — from couples, elopements, and wedding sessions, to maternity, family, and self-portraits. I enjoy creating imagery that feels timeless, intimate, and deeply connected, preserving real stories and honest connection in every frame.
