The story of a photographer


I’m Alex Lane, a passionate portrait photographer based in the enchanting town of West Baden Springs, Indiana. Growing up in Robinson, Illinois, I developed a love for photography early on, capturing the essence of small-town life and the unique stories of the people around me. This passion followed me through my journeys, including significant periods living in Houston, Texas, and Bloomington, Indiana, where I honed my craft and expanded my artistic vision.

My diverse experiences have deeply influenced my approach to portrait photography. Houston’s vibrant, multicultural atmosphere and Bloomington’s eclectic blend of historic charm and youthful energy have enriched my ability to connect with people from all walks of life. Now, settled in the picturesque landscape of Southern Indiana, I am dedicated to capturing the unique beauty and individuality of my clients.

West Baden Springs, with its iconic domed hotel and stunning natural surroundings, provides me with endless inspiration. I love utilizing the area’s historic architecture and lush gardens as backdrops, creating timeless portraits that resonate with the charm of the region. From the serene trails of the Hoosier National Forest to the dynamic urban settings of Bloomington, I am eager to explore and find the perfect locations that reflect each person’s story.

My approach to photography is personalized and collaborative. I believe that every portrait session should be a fun and relaxed experience, allowing my clients’ true personalities to shine through. Whether I’m photographing families, seniors, couples, or individuals, my goal is to create images that are not just beautiful but deeply meaningful.

Driven by a love for storytelling and a desire to connect with new people, I am committed to capturing the essence of Southern Indiana’s vibrant community through my lens. Let me help you preserve your cherished memories with stunning portraits that you will treasure for a lifetime.
