Alexa von Arnim is a German-French-American photographer, visual consultant and art director. Growing up travelling the world to visit her multicultural family, collecting souvenirs in all their forms has always been part of her identity. Living with the inner restlessness of a cosmopolitan roots, travel became more of a home than staying in one place.

Starting her career as a fashion photographer in Paris, she soon realized a lack of freedom in the commercial work she was doing at the time. Her strong organizational and conceptual thinking naturally drove her to work as a visual consultant and focus her photography on purely personal and artistic work.
