“When I picked up my first camera, I didn’t think it would become my best friend.” — Alexis Jacobs, CEO
Alexis Jacobs is an alumna of Spelman College, born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia. Her camera has been with her everywhere, from the sunny beaches of Florida to the grand palaces of China! She’s been taking pictures ever since she was a sophomore in high school and decided to turn her skill into a business when she realized her passion for entrepreneurship, filmmaking, and photography could become one.
And as a fun bonus, here are some random facts about Alexis:
Some of my favorite things to do (other than whip out my camera) are read, write, and go on road trips. My happy place is the beach.
I am fluent in Spanish.
I’ve traveled to South Africa and China (check out some of the pics here!).
I am a published author.
I am a certified drone pilot, of which women of color are less than 3% of the total 368,000+ registered pilots in the U.S. And yes, you can add drone photography to your portrait session if you want!
I love seafood! But if I had to pick a favorite dish, it would be crab legs.
