Alex Johnson Photography

y and natural. We had a lot of fun trying out different poses and Alex was very receptive to the ideas we had. Absolutely 10/10, we would recommend Alex to everyone.

g!

thing we needed, he was prompt and followed direction, but also gave opinions and pushed the timeline forward effortlessly. Alex was loud and in charge when needed and like a ghost when appropriate - to be transparent, we didn't even notice Alex at our ceremony until we got our photos back and it felt like he had captured every single emotion, and every single moment. Alex was kind and considerate during emotional family moments, and we didn't have to tell him which moments were significant. The groom's father has a degenerative condition, and this is his first son to be married, so we wanted as many beautiful pictures of him as possible, and Alex was able to capture candids and staged photography of him that made us so overwhelmed with emotion. We are forever grateful for this. Not only is he great with people, he is great with selecting locations and poses that really work for stunning photography. We got married in October 2024 on Lake Superior - a tricky weather situation was unfolding, and Alex had multiple plans for any kind of weather, and we are so happy with the results. His candids are amazing, and are going to make incredible thank you gifts or our guests. They capture a mood, an atmosphere, and the life and love that was in that room that day. Alex is incredible and we would hire him again in a heartbeat. He is kind, thoughtful, and generous with his time. He also is an awesome dancefloor photographer, so feel free to get low with him.

gh the delivery of our final photos. Both Alex and his second photographer were top-tier professionals the entire wedding day, and we're still getting comments from aunts, uncles, grandparents, and friends about how great our photographers were, how easy they were to work with, and how happy they were to have their photo taken. We received engagement and wedding albums full of beautiful pictures, and truly do not know how we're going to be able to select only a few to frame. It was very important to us that we hired a photographer who would capture true, vibrant color (saturated greens, reds, and oranges since we had a fall wedding), and who would ensure that pictures were taken of our family and friends. Alex knocked it out of the park on all accounts. Our pictures capture the day exactly as it was, we are both thrilled with how we look in the photos, and we have so many nice photos to share with friends and family and to have as forever keepsakes. Posing and taking the photos on the day of was also very easy despite neither one of us being super comfortable in front of a camera. Alex and his second photographer put us at ease, kept us smiling and laughing throughout the day, and told us exactly what to do to get great pictures. If you want gorgeous wedding photos and a stress free experience when it comes to wedding photography, absolutely hire Alex Johnson Photography services. It will be some of the best money you ever spend.

to make sure everything was covered for the day. His thoughtfulness to so many aspects throughout the process and day are what made him such a great person to work with and we would totally recommend for others.

our pictures done so efficiently, and they all turned out so beautiful. We truly had so much fun shooting with him and never felt like it was a chore (which my husband usually feels like photos are!). It was perfect having Alex come to our cabin/wedding venue for the engagement shoot, because he knew exactly where to take perfect shots on the wedding day. We would absolutely recommend Alex to anyone in MN!!

and displayed leadership to guide my husband and I if and when needed. The day goes by so fast and it is critically important to have a photographer you can trust to be there every step of the way--we knew we could trust Alex and he still blew us away with his professionalism! Alex does a great job balancing the posed photos and candid photos, both for the wedding couple and for the guests. Not to mention, every photo he took is a work of art. Thank you so much, Alex!!

ely fortunate that he was available for our day in June. If you are fortunate enough to find love, hire Alex to capture some of those memories when you join in marriage. Thanks Alex!

ing all of our questions and addressing any concerns we had. During our engagement shoot and on our wedding day, Alex's calming presence and warm demeanor made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera. He effortlessly captured the most beautiful moments, both planned and spontaneous, ensuring that every detail was captured perfectly. What truly sets Alex apart is his genuine care for his clients. Throughout the entire process, he not only acted as our photographer but also as a supportive friend. He listened to our stories, shared in our excitement, and even helped us navigate through any wedding day jitters and family dynamics with grace and professionalism. Alex's ability to handle everything with such poise and kindness left a lasting impression on us and our guests. He managed all the directions and requests seamlessly, making sure everyone felt included and comfortable. We are beyond grateful to have had Alex by our side capturing memories that we will cherish forever. His talent, generosity, and sweet nature make him not just a photographer, but a trusted friend. Without a doubt, we will be calling on Alex for all our future photography needs. If you're looking for someone who will go above and beyond to make your big day unforgettable, look no further than Alex. Hiring him was one of the best decisions we made, and we can't recommend him enough. Thank you, Alex, for everything!

amazing. I highly recommend him to any couple looking for a photographer!

agement photos were great and I'm so excited to see the wedding photos!

were nice and funny and put everyone at ease. The entire bridal party had so much fun taking pictures. When my husband and I got to see the full gallery, we were stunned at the quality of the shots. There were so many great ones, it was hard to pick favorites. Our Big Day is perfectly encapsulated in beautifully lovely photographs, and we are so pleased. I would highly recommend hiring Alex for your event! You won't regret it.

incredibly gracious, kind, and just plain fun to talk with. Our engagement shoot was a blast and the photos turned out incredible. On the day of the wedding, Alex made sure that he was able to document every important part of the day and had plenty of fun ideas for wedding party photos. He also went above and beyond his duties as a photographer, at one point he volunteered to be a look-out for me so that I wouldn't accidentally run into my groom before the ceremony! We recently received our wedding photos and were absolutely taken aback by how beautiful they turned out; we've received SO many compliments and we know how much they'll be treasured for years to come. Alex is not only an incredibly talented photographer but also a genuinely kind and caring person, and we would highly, highly recommend him as a wedding photographer!

fun photos over highly edited pics. Working with Alex was a breeze. Everyone at our wedding loved him, and the photos turned out just perfect. We were asked by at least half a dozen friends for his info - that’s how good the photos are! Highly recommend Alex as your wedding photographer. He rocks!

to work with. We would recommend him to anyone!

. His photos are beautifully composed and are truly stunning. His prices are reasonable, he is very responsive, and he kept us on our timeline on the wedding day. He is easy to get along with and is a fun addition to the wedding party. I highly recommend Alex, you will be so glad you picked him to beautifully capture your day.

helped put us at ease in front of the camera. He is a gem! I usually don't like any photos taken of me, even professionally, so I was worried I wouldn't like my wedding photos. But they are honestly the most beautiful photos ever taken of me, and I absolutely love them!! If you're on the fence just book him, you won't be disappointed.

s, but even Alex made him have some fun. As for our wedding, I cannot thank Alex and his second photographer Aaron enough. They came to the bridal suite where we got ready and grabbed some awesome candids as well as some beautiful staged pictures of my dress and rings. He was great at capturing special moments but also making us laugh or smile when it counted. He also was very good at making sure the special moments would turn out. For example, during the ceremony my husband was standing directly under one of the lights which wouldn't have looked good in pictures and he very quickly and professionally paused the ceremony to have my husband move. It meant a lot that he is that dedicated to making sure our moments were all captured. We also had an extremely cold and windy November wedding. But he was great at getting enough pictures but not making us freeze outside. There was one moment where my shawl blew down by the river and Alex ran down to save it. My husbands family has a picture tradition and Alex made sure to deliver. The pictures are beautiful, but really working with Alex and Aaron was a pleasure. I'd recommend Alex to anyone. Thanks for everything Alex!

e booking and gallery sharing is organized. He was a joy to spend the day with. Super appreciate the setting of the shot and posing options. He does it with such poise and makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera! Something that was special to me is he captured amazing candid photos of the guests. This is what I will look back on and remember all those special moments of the wedding. Thank you, Alex!

as amazing! He suggested a great location for us. During our shoot, Alex was so friendly and personable, which quickly made us feel comfortable, and the pictures turned out beautifully. Five stars!

active he was throughout the day. Our pictures are stunning and captured the day perfectly. Highly recommend Alex to anyone looking for a photographer!

e during the photoshoot. He took such wonderful wedding photos that we are so grateful to have as a keepsake of the day!

stponed due to COVID-19, and Alex was so flexible and great. Throughout the process, Alex was incredibly friendly, professional, personable, and he did an amazing job helping us through our special day and capturing unforgettable moments. You can tell he takes pride in his work and approaches photography as an art by the quality of the final product. His price was generous given the amazing quality of work. We would highly recommend booking him for the whole day, as he was able to truly capture every special moment. He brought another photographer with him who was also great and professional. We were blown away with Alex and have since recommended him to friends of ours. We seriously cannot express the abundance of gratitude we feel for Alex, and the incredible photos he took. These pictures will provide us with a lifetime of happiness.

ctly and I can't thank him enough! If you are looking for a wedding Photographer choose Alex! He is wonderful!

nd you definitely get your money's worth. My wife and I are very happy with both our engagement and wedding photos! If Alex is available for your wedding, we 100% recommend you book him now.

e tree in the yard, including the dogs in the photos as they watched the activities of everyone getting ready. You captured some outstanding emotions as the guests watched the slide show and the speeches!! Awesome job!! You also did a fantastic job capturing the beauty of the couple and the venue!

s.

also open to our suggestion and receptive to alternative ideas. Throughout the reception, whenever Alex saw guest taking photos with their personal phones and cameras, he made sure to get right up there with his camera to get the same shot! He made both my husband and I feel special on our day, and all of the pictures turned out great! Thank you Alex!

ed and the pictures he takes are amazing for both our engagement and wedding photos. Alex’s artistic vision is great and we would highly recommend him for your wedding or any professional photo needs. Alex was so awesome and was one of our top vendors to work with throughout our wedding experience hands down!

h the entire wedding party & made us all feel super comfortable. He worked so well with our videographer & obliged to any photo requests that we had (or our friends & family had!) He kept our family organized during the chaos of family photos and was very patient with everyone. During the ceremony & reception he was like a fly on the wall - I don't even remember seeing him taking photos but he managed to capture all the big (& little) moments! Our guests raved about him. We got our photos back in less than a month & can't believe how stunning they all are! I HIGHLY recommend Alex for any & all photography - I can't wait for an excuse to book with him again! Thank you, Alex!

was so easy and fun to work with - completely putting my now husband and I at ease! (which was a big deal because we're both a bit camera shy!) He is also very organized - he knew exactly what he wanted to get and kept us on time for all the transitions without being pushy or rushed - in fact it was so nice to feel like I could just relax and enjoy! It was also such a treat to have both film and digital - its hard to find anyone who still shoots film and the results are so wonderful - creamy textures and colors. His style is so natural and timeless, we could not be happier. Don't think twice about booking Alex - you will not regret it!!

to find a photographer in the digital age that still shoots on film and being someone who has grown up loving the look of film that sold me. Alex is very efficient at getting all the important shots done while still capturing the beautiful moments. His pictures have a softness and naturalness to them that really shows his experience and talent. He was great with communication, always answering my messages promptly. I can’t wait to work with him again! I highly recommend!

w to make you laugh so you look natural in your photos, and he pays attention to all the little details that you might not even think of. He helped ease the nerves on our wedding day by helping us laugh and making sure we still had time to just be with each other. Our family + bridal party talked on and on about how efficient and organized he was when it came to big group photos! Our photos are clean, bright, and timeless, and we can't wait to display them for many years to come!

ugh he had never been there before, he quickly found beautiful spots. My fiance and I don't love getting our pictures taken, but Alex did a great job of making us feel comfortable and capturing our love for each other. Alex also did our wedding photos this summer. He was very accommodating when we had to move the date due to Covid, and he captured the intimacy of our small wedding perfectly. We are going to have him shoot our big wedding celebration next year and can't wait to work with him again! He has also returned our finished photos really quickly, which is an added bonus to working with Alex!

hotos are beyond beautiful; he captured the essence of our wedding and all the things that made our day special. His photography style is artful while being true to the original setting. We couldn't be happier with our wedding photos and we 100% recommend Alex Johnson!

family and captured amazing candid shots of our friends and family enjoying the day. We got married in January but wanted outdoor photos, so he helped convince our large wedding parties that it would be worth it, and it definitely was! My husband and I took so much joy in going back through the day and seeing moments that we were not around for or had forgotten. We loved that he took both digital photos and film photos. Some of his film photos were our absolute favorites! I am so glad that a friend recommended his photography and I will absolutely recommend him to any of my friends as well.

photos but Alex works in a way that makes you feel comfortable and natural. He went above and beyond in horrible weather to capture our best moments. His photo editing is perfect and makes the day even more beautiful than the goldest of gold-rimmed memories. 10/10 would absolutely recommend!

fun moments. I feel like some photographers really over-edit to the point where it doesn't look anything like it did that day. Alex captures the true beauty of the day, and I think his pictures will really stand the test of time. We can't thank him enough!

antly, the photographs are stunning! Alex is able to capture the special moments of emotion whether in the warm light of a church or outside while it's overcast and snowing. I am obsessed with our photos and our family and friends are raving about them too. 2. Alex's photographer manner is perfect. He is calm, encouraging, fun, and has the ability to give direction to large groups (family, wedding party of 20+ people) without seeming bossy or asking for too much attention. Our family and friends raved about how wonderful Alex was to be around, but also how he was able to blend into the scene of the wedding and be unseen to capture the most intimate moments. 3. Alex has experience that made me confident in his recommendations and decisions. When the weather turned into sleet on our wedding day and we had to switch our wedding party photo location, I trusted his judgement to allow us to get gorgeous photos and stay on schedule. He captured all of the moments we wanted and so much more, but I never felt rushed by him - he calmly made the whole day work. All-in-all, we cannot recommend Alex enough. He is a true pleasure and one-of-a-kind talent that captured our wedding day perfectly.

fessional, calm , and detail oriented he is and his photos are absolutely stunning. When I received my wedding photos , all I can say was wow they are mesmerizing!! Alex was such a pleasure to work with. Would definitely recommend!

s find the balance between scheduling our wedding day timeline and being flexible to enjoy the day. Things ran behind the day of, and it helped to know ahead of time that we didn't have to worry, we just had to enjoy and he made it work! Alex is warm, professional, and approachable. He nicely balanced formal posed photos with candid ones. You can tell he is experienced at what he was doing and that showed in the end product. Our photos are gorgeous! They are light, joyful, elegant, timeless. We can't thank you enough, Alex!!!

our big day went off without a hitch. He did an incredible job of making us feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera, too! We've been getting compliments GALORE on how the pictures turned out, and we're so excited to have such an amazing keepsake from that day! Easily the best decision we made for the wedding - would 100% recommend him to anyone. Thanks Alex!

ail oriented. He was easy to get ahold of and he kept us updated about our photos throughout the entire process. Alex makes you feel comfortable and confident behind the camera. My husband was nervous about being photographed but Alex gives great direction and has so many beautiful ideas. Most importantly the photos he took are STUNNING! They’re timeless, bright and gorgeous! He is a true artist and amazing at what he does. Alex was overall a really lovely part of our big day – we are so very grateful we met him!
