Hi I’m Alex
I’m the founder and creative director behind Art Is Being, a boutique creative studio focused on visual storytelling and brand presence for companies where trust matters.
My work sits at the intersection of photography, film, creative direction, and digital strategy—helping brands translate who they are into compelling visual narratives and authentic audience connection.
Over the past decade I’ve collaborated with aesthetic practices, wineries, lifestyle brands, and hospitality companies, creating content that feels cinematic, credible, and human. From brand photography and film production to creative direction and digital presence, the goal is always the same: create work that reflects the personality of a brand and builds trust with the people it serves.
In a world increasingly filled with automated content and AI-generated marketing, I believe the brands that stand out are the ones that feel real.
Art Is Being exists to help brands tell those stories.
Outside of my professional work, giving back to the community has always been important to me. I’ve worked as a teaching assistant and media mentor with organizations including the David’s Harp Foundation, AJA Project, Outside the Lens, Lux Institute, and the Boys and Girls Club, supporting at-risk youth through creative education and storytelling. That experience has been incredibly meaningful and continues to shape how I approach my work, with a focus on impact, mentorship, and creating opportunities for others.

I’ve worked with Alex Ingram on a number of video projects over the last few years and have always appreciated the care he puts into his work. He’s talented behind the camera and brings a creative eye to every shoot. Whether it’s capturing patient testimonials, behind-the-scenes footage, or branded video content, Alex has delivered beautiful, polished work that reflects our vision.

Brandon, Founder/Executive Director, The David's Harp Foundation
It is my belief that if someone have can effectively challenge a 15 year-old teen affected by homelessness to look past their tough life circumstance to create art for others, that person can positively effect and motivate anyone. Alex has done that and much more for our organization.

Jason - Pro Markets Support and Account Manager / Key Agency Relationship Manager
Alex is an integral part of our organization and has a major impact in many different facets of our group. Alex's role at headquarters was essential to the DI field team, including myself, being successful in our role. His organizational skill and attention to detail made this possible.
Even in high-pressure situations like our periodic large depot events and trade shows, where millions of dollars worth of gear needs to be organized and carefully managed, Alex kept everything on point and organized. Alex also would frequently go above and beyond to help the team grow and thrive, bringing in prior experience and knowledge to help whenever possible.
