Welcome! My name is Becca Alves and I am the photographer behind Journeys with BareFeet Photography.
I am so glad that you have taken the time to view a little of my portfolio. It is important to me that you not only have a chance to see the style of my work, but to know the heart behind it.

There are many little things that happen in the crevices of life that aren’t always easily noticed. My desire is to be able to capture the nuances of each person, family, couple, or event and transform those into still “hard copy” photographs.

I love to see that delight on a mother’s face when I have successfully captured the personality of their child in action. Developing a full shoot of a self-conscious teen where they soon recognize themselves as a beautiful creation is enchanting. Being present for these experiences is the heart of my work. A family reunited and the happiness of getting to share life with each other. Each a different audience: all reminded. Another reason why a busy mother will never pass up a picture of their child’s glee frozen in a way they can be reminded of anytime of the day they want. People are captivating; and it is my privilege to embrace the task to capture. I love my “job” and I pray everyday that I will have the ears to hear and the eyes to see the vision for the subjects being shown to me through the lens I hold in my hands. Photography is just my medium of worship and I get to spend my life making music that is heard when photos touch the hands of the ones waiting to see the art created by allowing me, a photographer, to capture who God sees them to be.

I would love to meet each of you, even if it means you just have questions for me. After taking a moment to look at some of my work, I would love for you to contact me to take photos for you, your children, your family, your child’s birthday party, senior photos, graduation, engagement, an event you are hosting, or just because you would like to embrace the experience. I'm looking forward to meeting you!
