Born in New York, Sanguinetti moved to Argentina at the age of two and lived there until 2003. Currently, she lives in San Francisco, California.

Her main bodies of work include ''The Adventures of Guille and Belinda and the Enigmatic Meaning of their dreams 2010'and "The Ilusion of an Everlasting Summer, 2020', a more than twenty year long documentary photography project about two cousins—Guillermina and Belinda—as they grow up in the countryside of [[Buenos Aires]]; ''On the Sixth Day',2005 ', which explores the cycle of life and death through farm animals' lives; ''Sorry Welcome'2013', a meditative journal on her family life; and ''Le Gendarme sur la Colline', 2017', an intuitive, lyrical journey through France; and "Some Say Ice",2022, a luminous and unnerving book on death and the mid-west.
Her most involved project is a documentary photography project about two cousins- Guillermina and Belinda- as they grow up outside of [[Buenos Aires]]. The project began in 1999 when Sanguinetti visited her grandmother, Juana in [[Argentina]]. She intended to take pictures of the animals which occupied her grandmother's rural farm. However, she saw potential in her cousins, whom she had previously disregarded. Sanguinetti recounts this, "I was shooting them without even thinking it was work. My first idea was to just do a single story trying to figure out what they imagined life to be, just so I could get into their world." <ref>{{cite web|last1=Mahoney|first1=John|title=Intimate Portraits|url=http://web.a.ebscohost.com/ehost/pdfviewer/pdfviewer?sid=80179b9f-609f-4608-9d3d-a4e7438a94fa%40sessionmgr4001&vid=1&hid=4214|website=ebscohost|accessdate=6 March 2016}}</ref>
Titled ''The Adventures of Guille and Belinda and the Enigmatic Meaning of their Dreams'', the project follows them as they fantasize about becoming adults, early motherhood, and becoming young women while their relationship changes.<ref>[http://artdaily.com/news/44199/Alessandra-Sanguinetti-Presents-The-Adventures-of-Guille-and-Belinda-at-Le-Bal#.U2GN-a1dXD4 Alessandra Sanguinetti Presents The Adventures of Guille and Belinda at Le Bal<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> In this particular collection of photographs, Alessandra makes commentaries about feminine conventions of beauty and behavior, as well as gender roles and gender identity.
