 “Bella Baby"

Alycia Alvarez has always had a passion for photography. During her years in college, she studied the art of black and white photography. After becoming a mother herself, she realized how quickly her children changed right before her very eyes. Relentlessly, she began to document their little lives through countless photographs, which she knew would capture a glimpse of the person they were at each particular moment in their life. Alycia knows that for every picture taken, a moment in time is remembered. Capturing true and genuine personality is Alycia’s passion. Her style relies very little on props to uncover the true essence of her subjects and the many aspects of their character. Alycia’s objective with each person she photographs is to create an image that will reveal something truly unique about the individual...sharing a little bit of “who” they are, instead of just “what” they looked like.

Specializing in maternity and newborn/children’s photography, approximately 80% of Alycia’s business is devoted to her “Bella Baby” first year program.  She will explain the details of Bella Baby, including an outline of her favorite ways to light and pose the various ages of a “baby’s first year,” beginning with maternity and leading to newborn, 3–4 months, 6–7 months and 1 year. In addition, she will also share her best tricks for interacting with babies at these various ages.  Alycia will also share her studio “workflow”, including marketing and networking tips which have made her a success and allow her business to thrive even during tougher economic times.
