Moments with a natural, timeless feel.
Capturing stories in SW Florida & beyond
Based in Port Charlotte, Florida, I specialize in documentary style wedding, elopement and lifestyle photography.
My most requested locations include Sarasota, Siesta Key, Venice beach, Boca Grande, Cape Coral and Fort Myers, but I'm always happy to travel wherever your family is or love story takes us!
Over my 5 years of photographing couples and families I have found the true way to capture authentic moments. While I do a FEW posed shots, my approach is built around movement and genuine connection. Those interactions is what creates timeless images that feel like you and not stiff poses or fake uncomfortable smiles that fade. With my documentary, storytelling approach, I genuinely have seen my clients go from a nervous to forgetting I am photographing them. THAT is when the magic happens!

Memorable moments forever captured
Southwest Florida Wedding, Elopement & Lifestyle Photographer serving Tampa, Sarasota, Venice, Port Charlotte, Boca Grande, Fort Myers, Naples and beyond.
But you can call me Liv! I’m a 34-year-old photographer based in Port Charlotte, Florida, and proud to call Sarasota my hometown. Growing up, you'd find me on Siesta Key Beach all day everyday! The saltwater and sunsets are in my blood! When I am not behind the camera, you'll find me traveling, trying new restaurants, sipping on some sort of latte or spending time with my husband and our son. I have been behind the camera since 2021 and have loved every minute of it.

"She went above and beyond to make our elopement day so special"
We loved working with Alivia!! She was so sweet and made us feel so comfortable. She went above and beyond to make our elopement day so special, even bringing us cold waters because it was such a hot day. The photos came out great and we’ve received so many compliments! I had such a great time and would recommend Alivia ☺️

Since then, she’s done graduation, business, engagement, and most recently, our wedding photos — all absolutely stunning. Her bubbly personality and creative mindset make her the best photographer you'll ever hire. Anytime we need photos, she's the first person I call."
