I won't deny that I've known Al for many many years. However, he was bar none the best photographer I've worked with. He was on top of things through our whole engagement, included our daughter in our engagement pictures, and made sure all the pictures we wanted he had done.
During the day of, he helped with my dress, stayed out of our way when getting things done, you barely noticed him or his partner (his wife) in our way at all! I was very pleased by that because at a certain point it had become over crowded with everyone being there, but they were not in the way.
He takes a variety of photos, makes you laugh, helps the guys with their boutonnieres and is very non nonchalant.
We're waiting for our pictures to come back, but with a few of his absolute favorites he'd ask me, did you want to see which of course I did and just seeing the ones on his camera, they came out beautiful!
