Awaken Your Life
Wylde Roots is an invitation to slow down and reconnect with yourself and the natural world.
Through immersive nature photography, lived stories, and a life shaped by the wild, Alex shares what it means to live with intention, curiosity, and deep respect for the land.
This is not about escape. It is about remembering.
As Seen In
The Story Behind Wylde Roots
Wylde Roots was born from years spent living off-grid, traveling remote landscapes, and learning directly from nature.
Every photograph and story shared here comes from real moments — quiet mornings, untamed places, and the spaces in between. These reflections often continue through written stories and observations across the site, capturing lessons learned along the way.
This work is guided by presence rather than perfection, and by experience rather than performance.

Bring the Wild Home
These collections are visual journeys through wild places and human connection.
Wylde Nature explores landscapes as they are — raw, shifting, and alive.
Wylde macro, intimate shots of Portugals tiny wonders of mountain nature.
Each image is an invitation to pause, to feel, and to look a little deeper.
Each print is produced in small runs, using carefully chosen materials that honour the depth, texture, and emotion of the original moment.
These pieces are more than decoration. They are a way to support the journey and keep a piece of the wild close.
Practice the Journey
For those who want to go deeper, Wylde Roots offers a growing collection of digital journals, guided workbooks, and published books for those who want to explore further.
These Practical Guides are designed to be used slowly and intentionally — as companions for reflection, creativity, and presence. Some focus on photography as a mindful practice. Others explore journaling, self-discovery and development, and reconnecting with the natural rhythms of life.
They are practical, grounded, and evolving — meant to be written in, returned to, and lived with over time.
The Wylde Path
If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” but something still feels off, The Wylde Path was created for you.
This is a written, self-guided course — no videos, no noise, no pressure.
Just clear words, grounded guidance, and practical exercises to help you:
-
Recognize the patterns that keep you stuck
-
Rewire the mind using CBT- and NLP-inspired tools
-
Build a realistic path toward a more aligned life
-
Integrate change, not just chase it
A Quiet Retreat in Portugal
Wylde Roots River House is a one‑of‑a‑kind riverside retreat, created for people who feel the pull to step away from noise and return to something more grounded and real.
This is not a hotel or a programme—it is a simple, soulful space to rest, reflect, and reconnect with yourself, held by nature and the quiet sound of a flowing river. The environment invites you to soften without effort, offering private river access for swimming and contemplation.
Seen, Shared and Trusted
Alex’s work and way of life have been shared beyond this space, including appearances on Ben Fogle: New Lives in the Wild
and other publications that celebrate alternative paths and grounded living. Alex is also the author of published works exploring presence, creativity, and life lived close to the land.
This trust is carried into every image, story, and print offered here.
Stay Connected
