I’ve been super quiet on social media lately. With all of the things going on in the world, creating content has been difficult for me..

But living in the shadows is not good for business 😅 and I had a cool interview I thought I should share.

I had the absolute pleasure of photographing an event for and today 📷

It was a beautiful gathering of the community for an amazing film, conversation, crafts and an overall beautiful exchange of energy 💗

I was definitely inspired by and his incredible story and gift with words 🙌🏽

Thanks so much to for inviting me to document this event and for capturing this awesome behind the scenes pic 😄🫶🏽

I’m excited to share more pictures 🥰

It’s been quite a while since I’ve shared a blog, but recently I felt led to create one. With the current state of our country, I feel we are meant to return to simpler times 😄

Social media is unpredictable and doesn’t belong to us. However, our websites, blogs and email newsletters do!

This first blog is about using branding photographs for maximum impact. Branding images can be used for social media marketing, to update your website, help promote a launch, product or service, email newsletters and anything else you can think of 😄

I also share some local businesses and how they’ve used some of the images I’ve taken of them 📷

It’s so nice to have a collection of images to pull from at anytime.

I’d love to hear your thoughts or questions about branding photography!

What should I blog about next? 🧐

I’m so grateful for my clients (and friends) who come back year after year 🥹

I’ve had the honor of photographing this beautiful family 3 years in a row, when Zacchaeus was a few months young, then 1 and now 2 🎉

Every year passes by so quickly and it ’s so much fun to watch how the little ones evolve over the years 🫶🏽

Can’t wait to edit the pics and share them! This family also has a collection of albums and prints from each session 😍 they will have these heirlooms to look back on for many, many years to come 🙌🏽

Are you capturing the sweet, fleeting moments with your family?

I haven’t been very active on this account 😕 I’ve been really diving into other art mediums and sharing consistently on my personal account .janell instead 🎨🖌️

But I do want to give this page some more love because I plan on continuing to take photos! I’ve actually been working my business plan through a workshop I’m attending 🎉

I haven’t done a ton of photo shoots over the past few months. We’re just getting out of the rainy season here in Washington state and I’ve had folks start to reach out for pictures 🥰

I’ve been enjoying taking pictures of nature, which is something I’ve loved from day 1 🌸 nature is life and definitely fuels my soul 🙌🏽

I do have a very special, intimate event I’ll be photographing today 🥹

More to come!

May this year’s eclipse bring peace upon this earth 🌍
May love permeate into everyone’s hearts ❤️
May our planet be protected and safe.
May all beings be at peace ☮️
Sending love to you all 💗

Happy Solar Eclipse!

This photo was from 2017. It’s cloudy here in Washington so I spent this eclipse meditating for world peace. How are you harnessing this energy today?

I’m so thankful for these behind the scenes shots the mother of the groom captured on Saturday 🥰

It’s really cool to see this perspective 📷

I tend to shy away from big events and weddings, but every now and then something special and intimate comes along like this wedding🎉

I probably would’ve never experienced this view, had I not been invited to photograph it🏔️

About Me.

I am grateful that you have taken the time to stop by! I am Alexa Janell Aviles Arnold, a Nuyorican, vegan who lives in Tacoma with my husband Steve and fur baby, River. We are currently building a tiny house and starting our own businesses.

I found my passion for photography in 2012 and received my first camera for Christmas that year (Thanks Ma!). Today, I am a new business owner who is doing my best to remain in alignment and go with the flow of this adventure called life. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions, ideas or just to say hello! Namaste.
