Meet Axel Alexander, a Dedicated Photographer Based in Miami, USA
A sixth-generation photographer from a family practicing the craft since 1848, Axel Alexander transforms tradition into innovation. With over 35 years of professional experience, his career spans press photography, commercial assignments, corporate portraiture, and fine art projects.
For many years, he collaborated with Clarín (Buenos Aires), mastering the art of telling powerful stories in a single frame. His work has been exhibited at renowned venues such as the Ricardo Rojas Cultural Center, the National Library of Argentina, and the Goethe-Institut.
Today, Axel is a member of the Ibero-American Society for the History of Photography and shares with his father the stewardship of the Adolfo Alexander Family Photography Museum, safeguarding and promoting a photographic legacy that spans nearly two centuries.
His international career has taken him across the Americas, Europe, and beyond, capturing images for brands, media, and cultural projects. In every assignment, he blends the technical mastery and trained eye inherited from generations before him with a contemporary and highly personal vision.
“Photographers are lovers of light and time, beyond techniques or manuals. What is truly wonderful is knowing how to see.”
