Northern Virginia Wedding Photographer

Meet me

I am a wedding and portrait photographer serving Northern Virginia, Washington DC, and beyond. I'm so stoked you're here!
When I'm not spending time with awesome clients like you, I am likely traveling with my husband, testing my culinary skills in the kitchen, or reading one of the hundreds of books on my TBR list.
 
I'm a Midwest girl at heart (Iowa born and mostly raised) and have spent significant time living in other states such as South Dakota, Minnesota and Colorado. I'm now a Northern VA girly and have been gushing over the beautiful scenery here. The art, architecture, and rich history on the East coast has really won me over.
Let's grab a latte, hit the antique stores, and thrift some unique finds for your wedding.
:)
I sincerely cannot wait to learn more about you and be part of your story. Inquire below and let's have some fun!

Timeless Photography for Modern Couples

With me as your photographer, I aim to capture your wedding as close to reality as possible. The only truly 'posed shots' will be during the formal family portraits and select couples portraits. My goal is to not only capture every detail, but to blend into your day effortlessly so that no one feels pressure to perform. At the end of the day, getting married and being surrounded by everyone you love is what's important; and looking through your photos you will know this to be true.

Working with Alex was a wonderful experience. I was lucky to find her online and she captured our proposal and engagement photos. She is extremely helpful and communicates great. She was also early for both sessions and came prepared. She made everything a lot of fun and most importantly the photos came out great. Would recommend her to anyone!

Alex is AMAZING! She is such a sweet soul. You can see her passion throughout the photoshoot! She makes you feel comfortable, and is very creative. Besides, she is SO prompt to send previews, and the pictures are beyond stunning.

If you're looking for a photographer that goes above and beyond, book Alex! She not only captured stunning photos of us, but she also took the time to visit our engagement shoot location at the exact time of day we would be there to make sure the light was right, was always available for advice, was very flexible with our tight schedules, and was super responsive. Her editing time is lightning fast, and the photos were amazing! Highly recommend!!

I had been seeing fun bridal shoots on my Tik Tok and had been wanting to throw my wedding dress on again to do one! I’m going to attach a couple photos and let them do all the talking, but the shoot I had with Alex was a once in a lifetime shoot. Not only did she make me feel EXTREMELY comfortable shooting on my own, but she was the type of fun that made me think we could be best friends and to this day, I still go back and look at them once a week. I cannot recommend her enough!!!

Alex is amazing! She was very good at directing and made us feel comfortable being in front of a camera, will be recommending her to friends!

ALEX IS INCREDIBLE!!! I was so fortunate to have connected with such a creatively artistic, technically talented and overall lovely person. Alex is the type of lighting in a bottle photographer you want capturing special your moments. Someone with clear vision and a go-with-the-flow attitude is all you can ever hope for in scene setting photoshoots. My fiancé and I felt so at ease walking around Historic Occoquan getting to know Alex while she casually and somehow seamlessly, captured our most candid loving moments. If you are in search of someone who can bring out the best version of you on and off camera, Alex McCormick is your girl. If you want to live out your classic vintage dreams, that is another one of her many specialties. I know my photos and memories of this day will be cherished for many years to come and her services will be recurring and highly recommended!

Alex has done our family photos and our wedding photos. She always makes us feel comfortable which makes our photos turn out so natural, and she’s so much fun to work with! Her turnover time was so fast! She got our sneak peeks back to us within 24 hours! I can’t say enough good things about her and her work!
