meet your photographer
I think it was that first box of pictures at my grandma's house...I'd go in her bedroom, sit in front of that familiar worn box, and spend hours looking through all the pictures she had saved of our family, getting to know the story told within it. It was a way for me to look back... into my mom's life and my grandpa's, too... Someone that, although I never got to know, it felt like I did because of the pictures I could hold of him. That's the power that photos hold for me. They evoke memories and nostalgia of the past to tell a story that is woven throughout your life... Just like my grandma, I've found I'm a keeper of memories and moments. Capturing them and giving them, delivering an album to someone or hearing they have those pictures framed in their home... It gives me a warm feeling in my heart, knowing they'll have those forever like I do of my family. It all started with getting to know her story... and now, I get the honor of telling yours.
i'm alex,
It all started with a box of photos...
For as long as I can remember, I've been drawn to the art of preserving moments. As a child, you'd find me with disposable cameras in hand, eagerly documenting family gatherings and quiet Sunday afternoons alike. That inherent desire to capture life's fleeting instances has evolved into something far deeper – a passion for crafting visual narratives that honor the subtle, intimate moments that define us. Now, as the artist behind Alex Rodriquez Photo, I transform this lifelong dedication to storytelling into carefully curated photographs that reflect the depth and authenticity of your most meaningful celebrations. Each frame I capture is guided by that same genuine curiosity and reverence for human connection that first inspired me to pick up a camera.
