Hi Steemit, I'm Alex! I'm a nighttime portrait photographer in Los Angeles!

Hi there!

My friend @callmechris very recently introduced me to the world of cryptocurrencies and Steemit! While I'm trying to get the hang of how this community works, I wanted to introduce myself!

I'm a creator for the digital space - mostly Instagram and YouTube - so I'm super excited about the prospect of building content for a new platform! My main passion right now is shooting nighttime and urban portraits that have a slight sci-fi/fantasy feel to them.

What my posts might look like:

  • Some of my photography
  • Before & after pictures of the editing process
  • Shooting locations / technique / gear
  • Editing tutorials (?)

If you have any questions about these topics please ask away!

First Before & After!

About Me 

I'm Alex (one of the female ones); I grew up in Berlin and moved to LA several years ago to study shooting film and digital content. Along the way I fell in love with shooting portraits! I eat ice cream 6 or more days a week, see parallel parking as a competitive sport, and still have a BlackBerry phone with a physical keyboard. I also love reading nonfiction - right now I'm reading Telling Lies by Paul Ekman.

Here is a photo of me, shot by my awesome friend Chad:

Thank you so much for reading!

Best,

Alex
