If you’ve ever met someone you instantly liked, then you know how I feel about Alexis. I’ve had the pleasure of calling Alexis my friend for many years. Alexis is easy going and genuinely kind-hearted. She comes from a great family and is a good friend to everyone that knows her. Alexis was home-schooled and says she never even stepped foot into a “real” school until college. While she initially studied interior design, she quickly decided to pursue a field dedicated to serving other people. After completing college she became a certified LVN and RN and now works as a postpartum nurse in Los Angeles.

Alexis credits an early missions trip to a Romanian orphanage as her inspiration for serving people. Interestingly, Alexis also holds a 2nd degree brown belt in Shotokan Karate and has a passion for 40’s era music. She also loves to read – especially Jane Austen novels.

Unfortunately, I don’t get to see Alexis that often any more, but I had the pleasure of photographing her a few days ago. We did some indoor and outdoor shots and these two images are my favorites. Alexis – never stop believing in yourself. We all believe in you and are blessed by your friendship.
