Alexandra Sophie (b. 1992) is an artist and photographer born and living in the French countryside. Unable to pursue school due to her autism from age 13, she discovers her passion photographing her younger sisters in the family garden. Soon, her colorful work, described as sensual, fresh and feminine is recognized by the industry and at 22, Alexandra is a regular contributor to Vogue and Harper's Bazaar internationally. In 2018, she is recognized as one of Forbes' 30 under 30. With a hopeful stride to overcome a complicated start in life, Alexandra completes her Bachelor's degree in Photography and Videography from Gobelins in 2023.
In her work, Alexandra hopes to question normality and our known reality - concepts which caused her a lot of troubles - beyond all their meanings : as humans through studies of the human body, paranormal stories and our place and rights within nature itself.
