She came into my husband and I's home to photograph for Houzz, and was fantastic! She was prompt and speedy and luckily allowed us to work while she was here. Her photos came out beautifully! **★★★★★ — Holleh Simmons, Dec. 2016** > Alexandra was so sweet, professional and enthusiastic. She spent her time getting to know each one of us for her story - which came out so great! A very thorough writer and reporter. We love her! **★★★★★ — Irwin Gueco, Dec. 2016** > What can I say...Allie was awesome to work with and made the process so comfortable with great questions and lively conversation as she photographed my home. When the article and photos finally were on-line, all I got were great compliments from my friends and family on how she captured my space and in essence captured who I am. I am glad that I am now part of her great portfolio! **★★★★★ — Michael Matthews, Dec. 2016** > Alex is professional, fantastic, a pleasure to work with, and just an overall good person to have around. Her insights into design and how to best photographically represent a space are profound. **★★★★★ — apricedesign, Dec. 2015** > I met Allie a few weeks ago when she was writing and photographing our home for a houzz.com article. She is a very talented photographer and made our house look amazing, and somehow took everything that we talked about and organized it into a great peice. We still keep in contact through email and text. Allie is one of those people who are as beautiful on the outside as they are on the inside---a total sweetheart. Thanks for highlighting the best in our home and our little family. **★★★★★ — Lydia Tolman, Dec. 2015** > Professional and personable at the same time. She was interested in back stories and had great questions about our home. She was very respectful and is trustworthy. The picturesxas well as the article turned out better than we expected. We loved working with her! ## Selected projects - [My Houzz: Organic Touches in a Fairy Tale-Like Retreat in Boston](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/my-houzz-organic-touches-in-a-fairy-tale-like-retreat-in-boston-pj-vj~3552716) - Location: Newton, MA - Photos: 49 - Description: https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/111082277/list/my-houzz-organic-touches-in-a-fairy-tale-like-retreat-in-boston - [My Houzz: Traditional Christmas Charm in an Updated 1840s Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/my-houzz-traditional-christmas-charm-in-an-updated-1840s-home-pj-vj~2835677) - Location: Hudson, MA - Photos: 107 - Description: https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/98646158/list/my-houzz-traditional-christmas-charm-in-an-updated-1840s-home - [My Houzz: 821 Square Feet of Cozy Holiday Style Near Boston](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/my-houzz-821-square-feet-of-cozy-holiday-style-near-boston-pj-vj~2829699) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 81 - Description: https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/98440422/thumbs/my-houzz-821-square-feet-of-cozy-holiday-style-near-boston - [My Houzz: A Snug D.C.
