    Amazing Photos!

    We only had a photographer and no video at our wedding, so we really were relying on him to capture all the special moments for our wedding. He did just that and more than what we expected! We just LOVE our photos, they are beautiful! Don't think twice, just hire him, you will not be sorry!

    Alexander is a great photographer- his eye and detail is abosolutely amazing. We used Alexander for our engagement and wedding pictures. He is great a getting a lot of different shots and different lighting. He is a one person show but when we got our pictures it was like there were mutliple people- he was everyone, capturing every moment of our wedding. The quality of his pictures are amazing- highly recommend Alexander for your wedding or event!

    Words cannot express the immense pleasure and happiness that came from having Alexander as our photographer for our special day. Alexander's talent reaches beyond the camera and lens…he made us feel immediately comfortable…we knew we had met a friend. His sincere approach coupled with his outgoing personality and professionalism created an atmosphere of creativity beyond our imagination. I am not one to like photos of myself…however the end result brought me to tears of happiness. We hit a "home run" when we found Alexander to capture our memorable day. We had a 5 hour photo shoot with Alexander leading up to our ceremony…the time proved to be more fun and stress-free than we could have hoped. At the end of the day…we kept saying to each other…Alexander played such an important role in making our day perfect!

    Alexander did an amazing job. He was professional, courteous, fun, and creative. He captured the most special moments, and his view through the lens brought them to life in a way that other photographers cannot compare. We would use him again and again, and recommend him for those seeking the most memorable, vibrant, inspirational, and heart-warming memories of their wedding or special event.

    My fiance and I took our engagement photos with Alexander. Her and I started off the day a little rocky and had got into a little arguement before we met up with Alexander. We were not on time for the photography session for multiple reasons of our own, but yet he was on time and he was easy and nice to deal with. He didnt get upset that we were late and actually gave us a mintue to get ourselves together. I think he realized that we were a little frustrated with each other so he kept his cool and had a calm voice and calm demeanor about everything. Once we started taking pictures with him, he made us forget about our little spat and we were able to take wonderful pictures. Judging by the pictures, you would have not known that we had a disagreement earlier and that we are the perfect couple and hopelessly in love (which we are). Thats how he made us feel with his personality, the way that he dealt with us, and the way he took our pictures. We recieved our engagement photos and couldnt be happier. We highly recommened him to anyone.

    I fell in love with Alexander when I found his website (photographybyalexander.com). I couldn't wait to meet him, convinced that he would have to photograph my wedding.

    The photos he took are amazing. He made me look absolutely stunning. He was everywhere; I don't know how he managed to take so many candids.

    ALL of the photos were spectacular. He has an extraordinary eye for details. The wedding album that he put together exceeded expectations; it is the most beautiful thing I've seen.

    He is the only photographer I will use for my family's moments.

    Alexander did a great job: excellent pictures and very pleasant non-intrusive manner. Both families and guests of all ages were feeling really comfortable. His style is truly a "story telling". We were really pleased with the photo books as well.

    We had Dmitry as our photographer for an engagement portrait session and the wedding. He was perfect. He helped us get comfortable in front of the camera and have fun. He has an excellent eye for detail and composition. The portrait session pictures were so beautiful we used them as our wedding favor.

    At the wedding, he was tireless in capturing everything. And the guests loved him! I can't recommend him more highly.

    Our first meeting with Alexander set the stage for what we could expect. He was personable, friendly and upbeat throughout the entire evening. We were very comfortable having him there. He captured moments when we didn't even see him there. We received the photos and they were beyond our highest hopes. Alexander really put a lot of time and effort into our wedding photos. The lighting, definition, details and moments were perfect!! It's hard to pick my favorites to develop. We highly recommend Alexander Morozov.

    Alexander- what can I say but an extreme joy to work with. He was so professional and fun!!! He even had my camera-phobic mother posing for loads of pics. Alexander was spontaneous and inventive- we were able to achieve our ideal shots- whimsical/contemporary while at the same time very traditional. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE him and his work!! I highly recomend working with him. Also, he sets up an website so that you and your family/guests/etc can view and purchase prints- this comes in handy when Aunts/Uncles are begging for pictures and you've just barely recovered from wedding planning and a honeymoon!!

    Alexander was great, I really liked working with him, and he was very good throughout the night getting both traditional posed pictures and fun pictures as well. (I haven't gotten the pictures yet, but I imagine they will be wonderful!).

    Alexander was absolutely amazing. He did our engagement shoot, and he did such a fantastic job, we had to get him for our wedding. He was courteous, fun, professional, and made us feel at ease. Neither of us are normally comfortable in front of a camera, but he made us feel so relaxed. You can tell he really loves his work, and it shows. Took a couple weeks to get our pictures, but we weren't in a rush.

    Wow, we were blown away by the sheer quality of Alexander's photos from our wedding. I have to admit, initially I was not all that convinced about the importance of wedding photos period. I hired a wedding photographer simply because it's what's expected--it's what's done, and Alexander came highly recommended, of course. But I wasn't excited about it, and I resented any time our wedding party would have to spend away from the action for a photo session. Boy was I wrong. Alexander and his amazing photos have made a complete believer out of me; I've done a 180' reversal. I treasure our wedding photos more than I ever thought possible. I don't know how he does it, but Alexander manages to get the most fun, lively shots of everyone--even our stodgier relatives. For every wedding guest, he managed to get both a single, lovely shot, as well as another one that's more playful and downright surprising. I love them--all 597 of them! Alexander, we can't thank you enough! We've decided we don't want to celebrate a single significant moment in life without you there to record it. Please hold August 4 permanently for all our wedding anniversaries to come . . .

    I couldn't have been more pleased with the outcome of our wedding photos. The quality of our slideshow, individual pictures and books were exemplary. Alexander takes the time to answer your questions and make sure that you are nothing but ecstatic with the results. He naturally fits in with your guests throughout your day and is easy to work with. He is a perfectionist, and takes time to thoroughly proof and edit his work, so it is not a speedy turnaround. But worth it in the end!

    Alexander's work speaks for itself. The man though is a pleasure to work with. He is such a professional, but very warm, friendly - the guests loved him. I know he will be doing more events for me my family. Thanks Alexander.

    Alexander refers to his work as storytelling, and when you see the finished product you really feel like you are watching a story unfold in photos. He is able to capture the mood and spirit of your day so the little moments you may not have even noticed at the time are portrayed as beautifully as the formal shots. It's wonderful to be able to look at the photos and recreate the joy of your wedding day.
    Alexander is very personable and makes an effort to get to know the couple and to interact with their friends and family in a way that is fun and comfortable. We've worked with Alexander twice and were delighted by the results both times.

    Alexander was great. He must have taken 1000 pictures. Some times took a while to respond to e-mails but I would totally use him again.

    Are you fine with waiting an entire year after your wedding to get your wedding album? If not, don’t hire Alexander. I spoke with dozens of photographers in the DC/MD/VA area and 4-6 months is the normal turnaround. My review is long, read below if you want the details but at the end of the day, do you want to wait an entire year to get your album when you can get it in 4-6 months from a photographer who’s just as talented? I almost didn’t go with him. He offered to accept another photographer’s photography package in order to get my business. It was a lower price than what he charges so I’m wondering if that’s why my album fell through the cracks. The wedding went fine and the website with my pictures got up January 8. I emailed him the day after the pictures were up and 10 days later asking how many pictures I could choose for the album.He didn’t respond until after the second email.I gave him my selection by the end of January.I emailed him once in April, May, and June-no response.When he finally responded he said the layout would be ready to approve the next week- got it 2 weeks later.I emailed him the next day to say I approved it and asked when the album would be finished and again the end of August-no response.His excuse for being unresponsive was personal issues and traveling (could've sent me a quick email).I called him and we had a long heated discussion;he thought a year was perfectly acceptable.Unfortunately it wasn’t in my contract when it would be finished. The 6 months he lists on his Wedding Wire profile is only for small albums.He offered a bunch of extras to make me happy but I wanted either my album or my deposit. He said I'd have the album by the end of October-didn't happen.You know how all the bridal magazines say you need to pick a photographer who specializes in weddings?His FB is filled with corporate events, not weddings.I got my album 3 weeks shy of my one year anniversary,it’s nice but is the same as other photographers.What a headache

    Photography By Alexander's reply:

    Laura, It is unfortunate to see your change of opinion. I remember how you, your friends and family have praised me on facebook for the amazing photos delivered from your wedding. You forgot to mentioned in your review that you have threatened me to post a negative review if I don't refund a third of your payment. Here is a fun fact. If you call me so average, would it be fair to give me a 3 star review instead of one? Wishing you all the best of Karma.
