Meet Alex

Hi, I’m Alex — the photographer behind Carter Tate Photography.


I first fell in love with photography in high school, starting out on film and learning to slow down and see moments intentionally. That foundation shaped the way I photograph today — with respect for the craft and a deep appreciation for meaningful, in-between moments.
Over time, what began as a passion turned into a way to tell stories that feel both visually beautiful and emotionally lasting.

I believe the most meaningful images come from real moments: the quiet ones, the joyful ones, and everything in between. Every couple and family I work with brings something completely unique, and getting to document that connection never gets old.
A LITTLE MORE ABOUT ME...

BEHIND THE LENS

-I'm married to my best friend, we've been together for over 10 years and we are living our best life with our tiny human

-I'm an Army brat, so I love doing any and all things that keep me out of the house

-Give me all the romance/thriller/horror books and fluffy blankets

-True crime documentaries/podcasts are my thing

-Don't get me started on farm animals and all their cuteness

-I love all things film, vintage, 70s-90s music

let's get you booked!

My focus + approach...


Working with me isn’t just about getting great photos—it’s about the experience. I want you to feel like you’re hanging out with a friend who just happens to be there with a camera, making sure everything runs smoothly and, most importantly, making sure you’re having fun. I take care of all the details, so you can focus on enjoying your day without stressing about the little things.


You can expect a relaxed and fun atmosphere where we don’t rush through things. I’m not about posing every shot perfectly—I’m here to capture the real moments, the raw emotions, and the little details that make your day so special. From the way your partner looks at you during your first look, to the joyful chaos of the dance floor, I’ll be there to catch it all.

"One thing I LOVE about my experience shooting with Alex is that she makes you feel comfortable. She's easy going and really goes with the flow, while maintaining professionalism. She's done a really good job creating a judgement free environment. I also really like that she captures the raw moments, instead of that standard "stand there & smile". She makes pure magic with her camera & I'm SO in love with all the memories she's been able to capture for me!!!"
