So thankful you're here

Hi, I’m alexis!
My story begins with a longing for adventure.
This wanderlust brought me to over 15 countries around the globe and on every flight back home, I found myself curled up in comfy socks (airplanes are always freezing!) reviewing the endless photos from my trip, getting lost in the colours and textures of whatever country I had just left behind.
These snapshots captured invaluable memories that later transported me back to a time of adventure and always seem to conjure bliss even on the worst of days.
I felt determined to bottle up this magic for others to relive time after time.
It was on one of these flights when my life plans completely changed course.
I was flying back home to New York City from my first trip to Australia, when somewhere over the Pacific Ocean, I took an accidental yet restful snooze on a handsome fella’s shoulder.
Six years later, that aussie airplane stranger is now my husband.
So here I am, in gorgeous Adelaide where Goldlight Photography was born. I’m completely smitten with the life I’ve built, surrounded by natural beauty and wonderful people. Oh and incredible coffee! If this was an award ceremony they’d be playing me off stage with music by now, so I’ll wrap up by thanking you for your interest in my passion.

Let's preserve some of your magic
