Hi! I'm Alexandra


I know what it’s like to love an old dog. 


My first senior hospice dog, Tyra, was only given 2 weeks to live.   Despite the odds she lived a happy, adventurous, fun filled year with us.  I knew I would be heart broken when she was gone and I wanted a way to remember her forever.  I photographed her as a way to secure the details of what made her so special and make sure the memories lasted for ever. 

I want to do the same thing for you.  I wouldn’t want you to forget the details of what is, what was, and what will always be important to you.


I have always been an artist.  One of the first creative things I did was change my name. Alexandra was a bit of a mouthful for me as I was learning to talk, so when asked what my name was I said Anja Lou instead.  Anja Lou became my childhood nickname – And it's stuck with me ever since! When I am not photographing I am taking the best care of my senior gal Bella, baking treats, going to the beach and having fun where ever possible.
