Hello world! I am Alicia.

I’m a mother of two. One wild-hearted Monkey Boy and one confident Queen Bee. Life with them is loud, active, and full of motion, which probably explains why I fell in love with photography that feels alive.

I’m a lifestyle and adventure family photographer with over ten years of experience behind the camera. My work continues to evolve, but one thing has stayed the same: I’m deeply drawn to connection. The kind that shows up when people feel relaxed, seen, and free to be themselves. Photography has given me the privilege of stepping into people’s lives for a brief moment and helping them preserve something real.

I’ve lived in the Pacific Northwest my entire life and currently call Grays Harbor, Washington home. We’re nestled between forest, coastline, and some of the most beautiful beach towns around. Seabrook, Ocean Shores, Quinault, Ruby Beach. This landscape isn’t just where I live, it’s woven into how I see and shoot. Moody skies, soft fog, golden evenings, and a little unpredictability are all part of the story here.

Outside of photography, my kids and I live an active, slightly chaotic, adventure-filled life. A few years ago we dove headfirst into mountain biking, which quickly turned into cross-country racing and gravel riding. What started as curiosity became a passion, and along the way it introduced us to an incredible community. I truly believe adventure is good for the soul, and that belief shows up in my work. Movement, exploration, and shared experience matter to me.

When you book a session with me, expect it to feel more like an experience than a photoshoot. There will be laughter. Probably at my expense. I’m easygoing, go-with-the-flow, and fully aware that the best moments can’t be forced. I’ll guide you when needed, but I leave plenty of room for things to unfold naturally. Especially if kids are involved.

If you bring your children, let them be themselves. Run, explore, get a little dirty. I’ll be right there, camera in hand, catching the moments you didn’t even realize were happening. You may even meet one or both of my kids along the way. They’ve been part of photoshoots since they were babies and have a special talent for making other kids laugh and feel comfortable.

My goal is simple: to create images that feel like you. Genuine, connected, and full of life. If you’re looking for stiff poses and perfectly still children, I may not be your photographer. But if you want images that reflect movement, emotion, and real connection, we’ll get along just fine.

I shoot until it feels complete. And if the light turns golden and magical, I might keep going.



I’ll always help you choose the best time of day, usually in the evening when the light is kind and forgiving. We shoot rain or shine, fog included. Sometimes especially fog. So bring the boots, bring the umbrellas, or lean into the puddles. The Pacific Northwest gives us what it gives us, and it’s almost always worth it.
