Alexis is an everyday wildlife photographer seldom seen without her long lens over her shoulder. The camera acts as a touch stone to maintain focus and ensures every effort to observe ambient wildlife or as a stand in for a foraging basket. She has been photographing birds obsessively since 2020, previously, her wild mushroom photography obsession spanned over a decade.

Making daily lists of bird sightings keeps her happy and connected to seasonal nuances. Seeking out new birds to photograph and draw takes her to wild places around the world. She is deeply interested in bird behaviour and communication, especially inter-species interactions.

She is currently in Mexico working on bringing her life list up from 500 to 600 species.
