Well hello,
I’m Alex! I am a photographer based in South Scotland but covering areas in North England and beyond! From a nervous college student with a tiny Nikon, to a mum of one running an award winning wedding business - it’s been such a fun rollercoaster from the get go! I remember getting my first few bookings in 2019 after going independently, and being in total shock someone would actually want my images for their big day. Along the way I have met some of the most beautiful, inspiring and lovely couples and have many more to meet in the future. I do have the best job in the world.

A little bit about me! I am a 29 year old, photo obsessed mummy of one (with also the best partner in the world, a horse and two kitties!) and live in South West Scotland. My style is natural and relaxed, just like me! I am a bubbly and chatty person, and pretty much could talk the legs off a donkey - so I don’t let anyone feel uncomfortable. My two main passions in life are horses and photography, and I absolutely adore being outside. Sitting still is definitely something I don’t do well at!

I grew up in North West England, and having my parents be in videography always inspired me to be a creative person too. I found my love for wedding photography when during college in 2013, while I was studying photography, I helped a family friend who had a photography business doing weddings. I soon fell in love, and after a few years of building my confidence Alexandra Victoria Photography began. From my first ever wedding till now, nearly 200 weddings later, I still love my job, and there isn’t a single thing I would want to spend my time doing.

I am not just your photographer, I am a friendly face, a helping hand and sometimes even a wedding baby sitter!! I will be there every second of the day, whether it’s helping someone put their shoes on or giving the venue a hand organising things, my job isn’t just about taking pictures - it is about ensuring the day runs as smoothly as possible. I make sure I chat to guests, other suppliers and the venue. I have always been a people person, so I couldn’t image not talking to everyone who will listen!!
