This week on Behind the Views: Alixe Lay (@alixelay). As you look through Alixe’s work, you’ll find photos of striking buildings and elegant interiors. They convey a sense of mystery, making you wonder about the history of the place. “I’m drawn towards architecture that shows traces of time, particularly buildings with historical or cultural significance,” she recently told T+L. “Every time I travel to somewhere new, I try to wander around the old parts of the city, visit an ancient village close by and a few small museums or residences.”
.
One of her favorite trips as a photographer was to Myanmar in 2019. “It was extremely refreshing to shoot something completely different after getting so used to shooting British and European architecture. It was a stimulation to my senses. I was so fascinated by what I saw and felt compelled to document everything. I was very moved by the Burmese landscapes and way of life that were so pure and beautiful.”
.
Her advice for aspiring photographers is to “be open and curious to everything you see when you're traveling. Have respect for the local culture and the community. Allow yourself to truly immerse in the experience and capture the things that really speak to you.”

In Alixe’s gear bag you’ll find: a Sony A7R II camera with 24-70mm f2.8 lens.
