Hey friend! I’m Lex!

photographer, mom, wife & Friend

Wife, mama, photographer, runner, coffee lover, Gilmore Girls re-watcher... and your girl behind the lens at Zion & Mads Photo.

I live on the North Shore of Oʻahu with my husband and our two sweet kids Mads and little Z. Our days are full of ocean swims, sandy toes, loud laughter, and so much love. We spend a lot of time outside—whether we’re at the beach, on a run, or just chasing sunsets together.

I’ve had a camera in my hand since high school, and over the past 10+ years, photography has become not just a passion, but a calling. Capturing life’s most meaningful moments—through all its seasons—is something I feel deeply honored to do.

When I’m not editing or shooting, you’ll probably find me training for my next race (I’m running a half marathon in every U.S. state!), sipping an iced coffee, binge-watching Gilmore Girls, or exploring a new place with my family. Travel is one of our favorite ways to grow, rest, and reconnect.

But the heart of who I am? That’s Jesus. My faith is everything, and it shapes the way I see the world, the way I love my people, and the way I approach every session—with intention, joy, and grace.

Zion & Mads Photo is more than just a business—it’s an extension of my life and heart. If you’re looking for someone to capture your story with tenderness, truth, and maybe a little happy tear or two, I’d be honored to be that person.

I can’t wait to meet you!
