Alex was wonderful to work with. Not only were the photos he took beautiful, but he was friendly, flexible, and easygoing with the demands and changes of the day. We connected righ...

t away and I knew I wanted him to be my photographer based not just on his aesthetic and experience, but on how friendly and easy he was to talk to and how helpful he was in answering my questions. The photos of our day were gorgeous and he worked so quickly to get us about a dozen gorgeous, edited teasers. Everyone in my family loved him. He made us comfortable and laugh during the photos and had lots of great poses and ideas. He was also open to our own poses and ideas as well. Such a pro and a great human all around. I highly recommend him!

ing—especially with a few special requests we had, which ended up producing some of my favorite photos from our entire wedding weekend. I actually cried when we first received our gallery because of how beautiful the images were. He perfectly captured the moments, the lighting, and the love in the documentary-style approach we were hoping for. We have zero experience in front of the camera, yet Alex guided us so naturally and made us feel completely comfortable throughout the process. I’m beyond grateful we chose him to capture the biggest day of our lives and couldn’t recommend him more highly. Also, the prices were extremely fair/reasonable! I did a lot of research and Cinematica Weddings is high quality work at an affordable rate. Thank you!!!

ly. It also helped that they are bilingual and were able to engage with the guests in English and Spanish for a better customer service. I would highly recommend them! They provided a photo timeline for us to follow the day of making it easier for all the vendors and wedding party to be on the same page. I will hire them again for future events.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Alex and his team from Cinematica Weddings for our September wedding at Monserate Winery, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. ...

From the very beginning, Alex was professional, warm, and incredibly attentive to our vision. Our theme was black tie formal with a romantic editorial vibe, and Alex captured it flawlessly. Every photo feels like a frame from a timeless film—elegant, emotional, and artfully composed. He didn’t just document our day; he told our story. The lighting, the angles, the candid moments—everything was curated with such care and intention. Alex has a gift for making you feel comfortable in front of the camera, and his team worked seamlessly behind the scenes to ensure every detail was preserved. We’ve received endless compliments on our wedding photos, and we truly feel like we’ll cherish them forever. If you’re looking for a photographer who can elevate your wedding into a visual masterpiece, Cinematica Weddings is the one. Thank you, Alex, for making our day unforgettable.

te dream to work with—professional, kind, creative, and so attentive to every detail. Alex and Leo have such an effortless way of capturing every special moment without ever feeling intrusive. Whether it was during our pre-ceremony photos, cocktail hour, or the reception, they somehow managed to be everywhere without ever being in the way. It truly felt like they were part of the celebration, blending into the background while documenting the magic of the day. The quality of their work far exceeded our expectations—every image and video was absolutely stunning and captured the feeling of the day perfectly. On top of that, their turnaround time was impressively quick, allowing us to relive our favorite moments so much sooner than expected. Their eye for light, composition, and candid emotion is unmatched. We felt completely at ease in front of the camera (which says a lot!), and so many of our guests commented on how friendly and professional they were throughout the day. When we look back on our photos and videos, it’s clear that Alex and Leo captured not just the big moments, but the little in-between ones that made our wedding so special. We’ll cherish their work forever. If you’re looking for a team that’s both talented and genuinely wonderful to be around, Cinematica Weddings Photography is it.

e, and always quick to respond to any questions, which instantly gave us peace of mind during the planning process. On the wedding day, Alex was more than just a photographer—he was a calming presence who helped us feel completely at ease. He has an incredible gift for capturing candid, genuine moments and emotions, the ones you can’t stage but want to remember forever. His upbeat, positive energy not only made us comfortable in front of the camera, but also put our families and guests at ease, which shows through beautifully in the photos. We were blown away when we received our gallery and video. Everything felt intentional and authentic, perfectly telling the story of our day in a way that was even better than we hoped. We’ll treasure these memories forever, and we couldn’t recommend Alex more highly to anyone looking for a photographer who truly goes above and beyond.

ot. Not once did Alex make us feel rushed, even though we were working with limited time before sundown, an outfit AND location change. He was extremely professional, laidback, and captured amazing photos given the circumstances. I also emphasized with Alex how important our wedding video and photos were to us since we got married during COVID and had to cut our guest list down significantly. I really wanted the details and candid moments captured so those who did not get to attend would feel like they were there. He and his team nailed it! They were fun, courteous, and delivered on what they promised. Can’t thank or recommend them enough!
