Hi, I am Alexis Stuart.

(... but you can call me Lex.)

I'm a self-proclaimed Poetic Photographer, based out of Central Florida, but let's be real: this adventure-loving girly is always down to travel.

I specialize in lifestyle photography with a storytelling twist. In other words: if a picture’s worth a thousand words, I’m here to turn your moments into memoirs.

Most days, you’ll find me capturing love in all its forms—proposals, weddings, and couples’ sessions are my bread and butter. I also have a soft spot for Disney Resort and Vacation photography (because yes, magic really does live in the details — and my own love story is a testament to that).

If you find yourself scrolling through my little corner of the web, wondering who in the world this girl is... I'm an adventure-loving, God-fearing, thrift-obsessed poet who just so happens to experience life with a camera in her hands (when I don't have a book in hand, that is).

From an early age, I was hooked on documenting the world around me—whether through photography or writing, I've always been drawn to storytelling. Although I dabbled in one Freshman-level Photography class in college (and was voted "Best Photographer" in the 2014 Ember Awards), I developed most of my skill from a combination of the World Wide Web (*cough* YouTube) and practicing on the people around me who believed in me enough to be my test subjects ... err, I mean, models.

In 2020, I officially launched LexTakePix, and what started as a side hustle grew into something far more beautiful than I ever imagined. After photographing 65+ weddings and hundreds of sessions, I finally took the leap in May 2025—leaving behind nearly a decade in non-profit communications and marketing to pursue photography full-time.

My background as a Communications Director shaped so much of who I am—crafting messages, telling stories, and leading with heart. It’s also how I met my amazing husband, Brian. But today, my days look a little different: more golden hours, more love stories, more real moments frozen in time.

Now, I get to do what I love full-time: capturing honest, joyful, poetic images for people who want to remember how it all felt.

Let’s create something meaningful together.
