About Me

My photo
I'm Alyx. I don't drink, smoke, do drugs, or have sex. I'm in a committed long distance relationship. I majored in fine arts at an art high school in NC. I now live in Sarasota, FL and major in photography. I take photos because I love making people feel beautiful. All my self portraits are taken in my bathroom. I don't claim to know a lot about photography, but I want to learn and that's what matters.

It's a job I'd do for free.

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of photographing Frank and Sandra LoNano's 50th Anniversary celebration. (: This was my first paid job, so I was ridiculously nervous and had bad social anxiety - knowing barely anyone there. But in the end, it turned out great. I got to finally try out my new Canon EOS 5D Mark II with it's 50mm and 85mm lenses, and 430EX II Speedlite. Here's a few sample pics.

  1. Alyx, I don't know you or these people, and your pictures take my breath away. You are a talented young woman... wow! My favorite is the black and white hugging pic. What an eye you have.

  3. Alyx - your pictures are wonderful. Your couple should be very pleased with them. You did an awesome job with lighting and the color is spot on. I love how in the third photograph you used framing to bring your eye into the photograph. Nice attention to the details. I know you are off to college but I hope when you come back in we can go off and photograph together!
