You've Got Alex Steele
Ten questions with a mom of four and film photographer from Manhattan Beach.
Welcome to the interview series on YGL that explores connection, creativity, and personal taste. A glimpse into the lives of people I admire through intentional thought and conversation. Today’s guest is gracefully raising the next generation and beautifully capturing it all on film. She’s definitely on my dream list of friends. You’ve got Alex Steele!
month, a season orbiting around motherhood and femininity, I had Alex at the top of my list. I closed my eyes and crossed my fingers in hopes she would say yes as the proposal email swished out of my outbox. Lucky for us all, she is here today to share some of her experience, wisdom, and beauty. You may recognize Alex from her lovely publication. Handpicked by Alex Steele is a weekly newsletter that I (and many others) very much adore. In her words, it’s a “joyful link list + film photography digest, curated by a chatty mother of four in Los Angeles”. I’m grateful and excited to share her words (and stunning photos) with you on YGL today, please enjoy.

What are you excited about right now?
An upcoming trip to the family cattle ranch in Arizona. It’s a historic ranch called the Lazy B. It’s very rural and wild, and much of the land has been untouched by human beings for hundreds of years. It’s a sacred place for me. I’ll be bringing 15 rolls of film.
