 I am Alexis Powell, Photographer behind Alexis Aaliyah Photography.

Thank you so much for being here! My name is Alexis Powell and I am a local photographer of the West Michigan area, specifically Holland, MI. In my 8 years of experience, I have focused my career documenting everything from lifestyle sessions of families, birth of new life and the joining of two people in marriage to automotive photography and creative expression. Photography is not just a career, it is my passion and something I love doing every single day!

Client Reviews

Not only are you a wonderful person but you're an outstanding photographer! You met me at our location in no time at all, even drove around to find me since we were parked on opposite sides of the beach. Not to mention it took some time getting ahold of one another since I had no service! I can tell you put your heart into your craft. You helped guide me into different poses, you were serious but fun, you are so beyond polite when asking me try a different pose, which helped my confidence. You held a good conversation which made the session even better! Lastly, the photos came back to me very quickly and had a cute portfolio of the photos you took. I honestly couldn't have had a better opportunity in working with you. It truly was how kind you were behind the camera. You're so sweet and amazing at your craft!

Alexis is literally the ONLY person I trust to take my pictures for special occasions. All of the pictures around my house of my daughter and I have been taken by her. She’s so quick with the sessions and knows exactly what she is doing. She gets the best shots & has very fair pricing for her work. I’d recommend her 10/10.

-Cierra Esign

Alexis has been amazing to work with! We started getting photos done by Alexis a year and a half ago. She did our maternity pictures, we now have done several photo shoots. Some including our dog which is amazing! Our recent shoot being a mommy and me photo shoot. Which turned out fantastic! We love how easy going she is to work with and our pictures never disappoint!

-Jazmina Morin

I would totally recommend going to Alexis for any type of photography. I loved working with her on my cap and gown pictures, it was my first time with a professional, she made it totally worth it and fun. I loved how my pictures turned out. She has an outgoing personality that made me feel comfortable. Not only did she deliver my pictures but she helped me pose, find the area, ask for my outfit, help me pick my outfit and overall so helpful. If you’re looking for someone smart and kind, outgoing and amazing at their job go to Alexis Aaliyah photography. I totally recommend her!
