My philosophy

Photos are like time machines, taking us back to those moments that mean the world to us. They’re little treasures of the real feelings and memories we want to hold onto forever. They let us smile, cry, and relive the magic long after the moment has passed.

I’m all about creating art that you can feel—laughter you can hear, flavors you can almost taste, happy tears that leap off the page. I’m not chasing perfection; I’m here for the real stuff. Like your dad sneaking cake, your abuelos squeezing your hand, or someone’s pants ripping during a wild dance move. The magic is in those split-second, unplanned moments.

The heart of my work is connection. I want to get to know every single person in front of my camera—what makes you, you. Every love story is unique, and no one-size-fits-all list could ever capture the spirit of your day. I’m here for the planned moments and the spontaneous ones, camera in hand, ready to catch every bit of magic.

No matter who you are, your pronouns, or your love story, this is a safe space where you can be yourself. If this sounds like your vibe, check out my starting prices and let’s connect!

Kind Words

Alejandra Valerio was our photographer for our wedding photos in Paris, and it was an incredibly fun experience. She is very creative and makes both of us feel very comfortable. Alejandra was also very flexible with what we were looking for. She has the perfect eye for capturing our love, we are beyond happy!!

Alejandra has been my photographer on numerous occasions, and each time she has delivered incredible results. From our first small photoshoot with my fiancé, where she truly worked her magic, I knew I had found someone special. My fiancé isn’t particularly fond of photoshoots, but Alejandra’s professionalism and positive energy made the experience enjoyable and relaxed for both of us.

When it came time for our Chinese wedding—a long day packed with events—I knew she was the perfect choice. Alejandra captured every detail beautifully, ensuring that we could relive the day through her stunning photos. The entire experience was seamless, and I appreciated her follow-up after the wedding to discuss our editing preferences. The final images turned out absolutely perfect.

I wholeheartedly recommend Alejandra’s services to anyone looking for a talented and dedicated photographer!

Ale has taken pictures for our family a few times and is a true gem. From One Year Birthday photos to family sessions, she is so easy to work with. From scheduling to photo delivery everything is seamless. She is always able to get amazing shots (even with an unhappy toddler)! The sessions are quick, easy, and feel so natural. I highly recommend Ale for any photography needs and we can’t wait to book our next session!

Anyone would be lucky to work with Aleja. It goes without saying, her photography is outstanding. Ale captures raw emotions, candid moments, big moments, small moments & everything in between. She was always there for advice, helped us figure out a timeline & really felt like a friend. Having Ale capture our day was probably the best decision we made for our engagement pictures!

Desde que vi su trabajo en Instagram, me enamoré. La forma en que llevó a cabo la experiencia con nosotros sin duda te hace sentir muy cómoda. Le confié mis ideas y ella hizo magia con ellas. Desde ese día, Ale ha sido fundamental para capturar los momentos más especiales de mi vida.
