Hey, I’m Alex — the eye behind Zander Stills.

I’m a portrait photographer who loves bold lighting, unexpected locations, and catching that “wow, that’s really me?” kind of moment. I work with seniors, creatives, and families to create striking images that feel like you — just a little more cinematic.


My sessions are relaxed but intentional. I’ll guide you with poses if needed, but I’m more interested in real confidence than fake smiles. Whether it’s a dramatic back alley or a quiet field at golden hour, I’m always chasing good light and good energy.


Let’s make something unforgettable.

 

Things you might wonder

 

Where are you located?

I’m based in South Carolina and shoot on location throughout the area. I'm available for shoots in Augusta, GA, Columbia, SC, Charleston, SC, Hilton Head, SC, Savannah, GA and more. Let's talk about it!

What kind of sessions do you offer?

I’m focused on lifestyle shoots. These range from clean and classic to bold and creative.

Do you help with posing?

Absolutely — I’ll guide you when needed, but I also leave room for natural movement and genuine expressions.

What should I wear?

Wear what makes you feel confident. After booking, we can talk about a plan for the shoot. I do not ask for my clients to only use one color palette of clothes so the final images turn out a specific way. These images are about you showing your personality, and not everyone is a shade of blue, brown, or white.

How much do sessions cost?

Pricing is flexible. I don't believe that "2 outfits, one location = $X" works for everyone. I do have travel fees outside of my home area and time is also a consideration. Let’s chat and figure out what works for you.

How fast will I get my pictures back?

I usually deliver edited images with a quicker turnaround. I can give a solid estimate at the time of booking. I always try to get some sneak peeks over quickly since I know you will be excited to see everything after our shoot!
