“Working with Alex has been integral to the growth of our business; her eye for capturing the soul of our little bakery is keen. When interviewing for photographers, we were looking for someone who could take timeless photos of our store, the customers and the staff who serve them. Alex observed our process, took select photos with a great deal of care and respect for the team members and customers alike and was able to convey our company's philosophy with images that are featured on our website, in social media and in print. We're beyond grateful for Alex's professionalism, her ability to communicate through her lens and work and are indebted to her for projecting the feel and experience of our very tiny shop to the world at large.”

- Clémence de Lutz, co-owner, baker and chocolate lover at Petitgrain Boulangerie
