ABOUT ME

Meet the Photographer

Hey there!

Welcome to my little corner of the internet! I’m Alexei, and I’m absolutely delighted to have you here.

My journey as a storyteller began when I was just a wide-eyed kid, tinkering with my dad’s old Zorki camera. At the age of 8, I discovered the magic of freezing time with the click of a shutter. My childhood was filled with adventures in moonlit darkness, the mysterious glow of red light, and a growing fascination with capturing moments that might otherwise fade. That passion stayed with me, evolving into a lifelong love for photography.

Now, I find myself based in the vibrant community of Belmont, CA, where I’m ready to embark on a new adventure - with you. My goal? To help you immortalize not just faces but the emotions, connections, and stories that make each moment truly meaningful.

Life, after all, is a magnificent adventure - a whirlwind of fleeting moments, ever-changing landscapes, and evolving identities. Photographs are more than just images; they are pieces of memory preserved for a lifetime. Whether it’s the joyous chaos of a family gathering, the quiet tenderness of a couple’s love, or the adrenaline rush of an action-packed ride, I strive to capture more than just what you see—I capture what you feel.

So, let’s embark on this photographic journey together. Let’s turn your cherished moments into timeless treasures that will stay with you for years to come.

Thanks for stopping by - I can’t wait to connect with you!

Warmly,
Alexei
