I Have a lot of experience and I am very reliable. I love meeting new people and I am "Mr. Positivity": I believe that good attitude and energy are your biggest assets in anything you do. it might sound cliche, but I want to put in my two cents to make this planet a better place and, through my work, offer an experience that will be remembered as a special memory. Creativity, clean lighting, nice compositions, capturing emotions and movement...those are qualities I try to achieve through my work.

We booked Alex to photograph our 40th high school reunion and I would highly recommend him to anyone for their next event. Alex is a delight to work with, always smiling and very pleasant, and he has a great "can do" attitude. Alex took the time to meet with us in person before we had even hired him 3 weeks prior to our event and traveled to our our on site event location in Long Beach just to make sure of what the lighting and layout would be. On the day of our event, Alex arrived 2 hrs early just to set up his equipment and didn't even charge us extra for this. We provided Alex with a pretty extensive list of our schedule of events and the key shots we wanted, and he captured every one of those for us. Alex put extra care and attention to every detail of the photos, and with our large group photos he made sure that everyone could be seen and that everyone was smiling and looking at him at the same time. Alex did a great job capturing the candids we wanted too. Alex took a variety of shots from posed stills, to candids, to large groups, to small groups, and action shots like dancing and people greeting and hugging each other, and did a great job in all contexts. Alex always knew where to be and was always ready at just the right time. We also had hired a videographer for our event, and even the videographer praised Alex on what a great job he did and how Alex took extra care never to block the shots our videographer was filming. We are very happy with our end product photos, they turned out great and Alex edited over 300 photos for us to choose from. Alex also provided each of our 5 committee members with DVDs which had all of the photos he took that night in both high and low resolutions so we could put together a Photo Memory Book for our classmates of our reunion. Alex also set up for us a convenient link to a photo gallery website of our reunion event which provided all our classmates a way to directly order prints of their favorite individual shots in various sizes. Alex was also very prompt at responding to our emails, texts, and phone calls whenever we had questions, and was easy for us to reach. Alex overall is an exceptional professional, with reasonable pricing, with a great attitude, and I would definitely use him again for any of our next events!

Hands down best photographer I've ever worked with!! Extremely professional and punctual; and yet also super fun, easy going and enjoyable to work with! Fully recommend to anyone needing ANY kind of photos taken!! We first met with Alex about 10 months before the wedding. He drove all the way up to meet us at a local coffee shop, showed us some of his past work and gave us a quote. He had the best prices and was the most friendly and engaging photographer we had met with so we signed a contracted that day and scheduled an engagement shoot. At the engagement shoot he was energetic and excited. He put my fiance and I both at our ease and spent almost 4 hours taking amazing pictures (he NEVER gets tired), but sunset that day was a bit disappointing and I had wanted some specific "sunset shots" so Alex insisted that we do another shoot in a few months time. Both engagement shoots were included in our total original quoted price! The day of the wedding Alex showed up extra early and spent the next 12 hours taking the most wonderful photos. There are not enough good things to say about Alex - he is kind, focused, talented, professional and AMAZING! I highly recommend Alex to anyone who wants amazing photos of their special event!

Love, love, love this photographer! We were so lucky to find Alex for our wedding last March. We liked him immediately as he is a happy, positive guy, and such a pleasure to work with. His fee was very reasonable, and included engagement pics and wedding pics. Alex went above and beyond, covering every aspect of our wedding, arriving very early, and even climbing a tree in a park to get a great engagement picture! We were thrilled to get the final pics, which were soooo beautiful! I can't imagine anyone doing a nicer job than Alex. I highly, highly recommend him for weddings, or any other events. Thanks Alex!
