, and dedicated to capturing every special moment. She knows exactly how to get the perfect shot while making the entire experience so enjoyable and comfortable. Our engagement photos were absolutely beautiful, and she captured our wedding day flawlessly. Looking back at our photos, we are so grateful to have these memories captured so beautifully.

I wish I could give 10 stars...There are not enough words to express how grateful we are for Aleksandra. From the moment we met her at our engagement shoot we knew we were in great...
hands. Once we received our engagement photos, I knew our wedding photos were going to come out fabulous, and I walked into our wedding day feeling confident in that. She EXCEEDED our expectations and truly blew our minds. On our wedding day, her calm, warm, and reassuring presence and energy helped us feel completely at ease. Seeing how excited she was about our photos while she was taking them made us feel excited and confident.
When we received our photos, we were absolutely speechless. Aleksandra captured our day so beautifully and authentically. She has an incredible talent, and I have no other way to say it other than she is a talented goddess. I had sent her some inspiration photos I wanted to recreate and of course day of blacked out and didn't remember or think of any of them - but Aleksandra remembered all of them and fully executed the vision. On top of that, Aleksandra has such an amazing eye and staged us for stunning pictures that were both elegant, classic and Vogue magazine worthy. Looking through our wedding gallery felt like I was looking through a Pinterest board that I would have pinned/saved myself. Looking through our photos brought tears to our eyes and allowed us to relive the joy, love, and excitement all over again.
Beyond her amazing talent, Aleksandra is kind, professional, organized (a Type A queen), and genuinely cares about her couples. We will treasure these photos for the rest of our lives and are truly so blessed that she was the one to document such an important day for us. I cannot recommend her enough!
Aleksandra truly has such a gift for seeing and celebrating natural light, and authentic moments! Our November wedding was beautifully captured and each time I look at our pictures...
I can feel every emotion I was experiencing- what a gift! When the delivery of our edited gallery was going to be a little delayed, Aleksandra reached out and let us know- her professionalism and transparency was much appreciated! We also really loved the opportunity to do the engagement shoot with Aleksandra which helped me and my husband get more comfortable being in front of the camera! Aleksandra really has such a dialed in vision and process, we are so glad we trusted her with our special day!
Amazing photos, and an even more amazing person! We had such a fun day with Aleksandra taking our photos. She did amazing and we LOVE looking back at the photos.

We honestly can’t thank Aleksandra enough for everything she did for us on our wedding day. From the very beginning, she was warm, professional, and truly passionate about her work...
—and it shows in every single photo she took.
Aleksandra went above and beyond in every possible way. She helped us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, kept everything on track with such a calm and positive energy, and even stayed longer than planned just to make sure we got all shots. She didn’t just photograph the day—she became a part of it, and we are so grateful for that.
When we received the final gallery, we were blown away. Aleksandra captured every emotion, every little detail, and all the big moments with such care and creativity. Looking through the photos felt like reliving the day all over again—only better, because we got to see so many moments we missed in the moment.
Thank you, Aleksandra, from the bottom of our hearts. Your talent, heart, and dedication mean the world to us, and we will treasure these memories forever.
With all our love and gratitude,
The Steckels

Aleksandra was extremely professional and timely. She made sure to capture everything we wanted for our engagement session. She was very detailed and open to anything we wanted to ...
do. Her personality is amazing! She is very easy to work with! She made us feel so comfortable during the entire process. I searched forever for a photographer to capture exactly what I was looking for and the vibe I was looking for. Once I stumbled across her page I immediately knew I wanted her to be our photographer. After a phone consult I was even more sure she was who we wanted. She listened to every idea I had and even gave some ideas herself! She reassured us about everything and kept in contact with us the entire time. We had so much fun during our engagement shoot. We loved her work so much that she will be photographing our wedding. You will not be disappointed with Aleksandra! She knows how to work her magic!
Aleksandra was amazing to work with! She is very responsive and helpful. She kept our day running smoothly and photos exceeded our expectations!
Aleksandra was phenomenal to work with. She made my fiancé and I feel relaxed and comfortable, as this was our first photoshoot together. We did our engagement shoot on a Saturday ...
afternoon, and she was easygoing and got us out of our comfort zone, which ultimately made for the best photos.
Weeks before the shoot, she was great about asking what my vision was and getting to know us better by having us fill out a detailed questionnaire. We can't wait to have her photograph our wedding day next November. Highly recommend working with her for any photography needs.
The most kind-hearted and genuine person!! Very easy to work with and such a smooth process with booking a session. Our save the date photoshoot was amazing, from the poses to the ...

edding day so she was very limited but she still made it work and our pictures turned out absolutely amazing!! She captured all the big and little details we wanted. She was very quick in getting us the gallery and also very quick with the editing process. For adding on extra time she also gifted us a wooden box with prints. Loved working with her :)
Working with Aleksandra was absolutely phenomenal. We had her booked for an engagement shoot and we couldn't be happier with the pictures. We did a rooftop photoshoot and were able...
to get great couples shots as well as individuals at different lighting/angles. Throughout the entire process Aleksandra was able to lighten things up and keep us relaxed leading to such better photos. Additionally she is very proactive and professional making her wonderful to work with. Would highly recommend!
Aleksandra is a pro! I had a very small time frame to get the photos done, right before my civil ceremony. Aleksandra was able to capture breathtaking photos in a pinch and without...
any planning or prior discussion. We jumped right in (in 30 degree NYC weather I might add) and I could not be more thrilled with the outcome. She really has an eye for what looks good and I love how interactive she is. All our photos looked natural and candid, nothing posey. She also gives great direction if you're feeling nervous about what to do! The compliments are still rolling in on how amazing my photos came out. Book her now!!
I met Aleksandra prior to my fiancé and I getting engaged. I automatically connected to her that when the night ended I went to my fiancé and told him I wanted her to take our phot...
os. 5 months fast forward my fiancé proposed to me and the next day I reached out to her telling her I wanted to set something up. Everything was so seamless with her, from setting a date to the day of the photoshoot.
I am not one to be comfortable behind the camera but with her everything felt so natural. She guided us in the beginning and once we became comfortable she was open to do everything and anything (even if that met for her walking through dirty mud LOL). She gave us our raw edits the next day and once we chose our raw images she worked to get our finalized photos in a timely manner. Through the whole process she was in constant communication with me. The photos we took were everything I ever wanted and more. Till this day I still look back at the photos and remember all the funny jokes she made when taking the pictures. What I loved about her was that she captured our true selves and our real personalities. This is what drew me to her. I will definitely have Aleksandra capture many more special moments in my life!
Aleksandra is such a talented photographer! She captured so many beautiful moments leading up to our wedding. We were lucky enough to book her for engagement photos, bridal shower,...
rehearsal dinner, and wedding day. Her creativity, vision, and attention to detail are the ultimate trifecta. She is an absolute pleasure to work with! Run, don’t walk to book her for your next photography needs. We look forward to booking her again in the future!
Aleksandra is amazing! She recently shot an event I hosted and captured every moment beautifully! In preparation for the day, she was very thorough making sure she knew exactly wha...
t and who to capture. Looking back at the photos felt like I was reliving the day which made it even more special. She is truly an artist! She’s also super personable and made all of my guests feel comfortable in their own skin, which reflected in her photos. I felt like she was part of our guest list instantly!
Words cannot describe how awesome our experience was with Aleksandra. She went above and beyond to make our vision come true. My husband and I wanted to book a session for our one ...
year anniversary and we are so happy that we did with Aleksandra. Prior to our session, she took the time to get to know us and get an idea of what we envisioned. She was extremely personable, professional, thorough and is truly amazing at what she does. We would recommend her in a heart beat!!
Aleksandra is very punctual, warm, friendly, understanding and her photos are amazing! Definitely got my money worth and she captured a piece of beautiful memory.

Our engagement photoshoot was our first photoshoot as a couple and we went in not knowing exactly what to expect, but Aleksandra made us feel so at ease and natural. Prior to the p...
hotoshoot, she checked in with me many times asking about the kind of pictures I wanted, the theme, colors, my outfit, etc. This made me feel comfortable because I knew I was working with someone who really understood my photoshoot concept. Aleksandra went out of her way to meet us at a location that was further away from her just because that was the place I liked. She was absolutely amazing with directions and photographed many details from that day. The pictures came out perfect and they were everything we were looking for. I could not have asked for a better photographer!
Wedding planning is stressful enough when you are an over planner like myself you can seriously find yourself stressing the details. So when it comes to finding who will take your ...

She’s not just a photographer she became a true guiding light even on the toughest of days she made it better just with a text or call. She is an artist who makes sure to capture your vision. She will tell your family and groom what to do (so you don’t have to lol) I wanted magical moments and she delivered. I could go on forever. Please do not hesitate.
