    Alex is such a talented photographer! He captured all our special moments on our wedding day. Our engagement session was also a blast! We knew from the moment we met Alex that he was going to be perfect for our wedding! His warmth and vibrant energy was inviting to all our guests! Will definitely be using w8 photography for all our special family events in the future :)

    Alex was amazing! My husband and I were beyond pleased with his professional service, infectious personality, and most importantly, his amazing photography skills at our wedding. Alex went above and beyond for our special day and it shows in our pictures. From the start, Alex took time to get to know us, what we did like and didn’t like, and offered his expertise when needed. The day of the wedding was perfect, he blended right into all the festivities and somehow got ALL the perfect shots and still made everyone feel comfortable and relaxed. Our guests kept telling us how much they loved Alex!
    W8 is the complete package – amazing photos, good value, and great service from start to finish. I highly recommend them!

    We are so glad we went with W8 Photography for our wedding! We had looked at other photographers but W8 definitely had the best value. We ended up with over 1500 pictures whereas other photographers would only give us a limited number. Alex was so friendly from the beginning and he really took the time to get to know us and our vision. Even our guests complimented how personable and professional he was. Our photos (engagement and wedding photos) came out amazing, and it didn't take him long to get them to us either, which was great because I couldn't wait to see them! We now have such a variety of pictures, and they all look like they came out of a magazine! Pictures were the most important thing to us, so we are so glad we went with W8 Photography!

    There is no one else I could ever have wanted to shoot my wedding than W8 Photography. From the moment both Alex and Jose got to our locations, my husband and I were made to feel relaxed, at ease, and completely focused on enjoying our day. There was no shot that Alex would not persevere to take, and after our formal portraits with family, we barely knew he was there!
    From our initial interactions with Alex to the receipt of our pictures, every second was professional, personal, and perfect!
    We recommend him to everyone! Two years later, we had him return to us to shoot my stepson's wedding. No question that he is the best out there.

    Alex is very professional, accomodating and someone that you would like to have at your wedding. He took beautiful photos and did not interfere with the flow of the day. Prior to the wedding, he interviewed us and asked us a lot of questions about the venue, types of photos, special people, etc.
    In addition to this, we selected him because of the quality and artisitic style of the wedding photos on his website and at his studio. He took "artsy" photos as well as the "traditional" ones. The pictures are amazing!
    And yes, I have already recommended him to my friend for her daughter's wedding!

    We hired Alex to do a family portrait shoot for us on the beach as a gift to our mom for her birthday last summer and it could not have gone any better. Alex knew exactly what color clothes would look best for the setting, where we should be positioned with the ocean/sand and what time of day would produce the best pictures. Alex was very professional, but also made the shoot very fun and relaxed. He can really connect with children and was able to get a ton of great shots of my nieces (ages 2 and 4) and nephew (age 5) which is always a tough feat. The pictures all came out wonderful, and Alex went out of his way to make sure he captured every possible photo that we would want. I would recommend Alex as a photographer for any kind of event or just a family photo shoot. You will not find anyone who is more passionate about their work and your happiness with it than he is.

    Alex Rodrigues is an amazing photographer. He was so unobtrusive, you turned and he was there capturing everything on film. He made everyone feel at ease even I who historically has detested posing for pictures found myself smiling whenever he pointed the camera at me. I would recommend W8 Photography again and again.

    Alex was FANTASTIC!! He gave us exactly what we requested; tons of great candids and non commercial looking portraits. We took all of our portraits before the ceremony and Alex was quick and professional. Our guests kept commenting at how you never even noticed he was around...yet he was everywhere. We were very pleased with his work.

    We used Alex Rodrigues at W8 Photography for our engagement pictures and wedding pictures. From our first meeting with him, we realized he would be the right photographer for us. It is so important to find the person with the right personality and professionalism for your big day. Alex was deinitely that person.

    He was very flexible with pricing as well, and very easy to get along with.

    When we met up with him for engagement pictures and then saw the beautiful pictures he took, we knew we didn't have to worry at all about our wedding day. We knew he would capture the beauty of the day.

    The day of our wedding, he was so helpful to me as the bride. He wasn't too intrusive, but he did get the pictures he needed. Great guy, and an excellent photographer!

    Alex was great! He was very enthusiastic and energetic. He caught all the right moments through the night, and took all the pictures I asked for plus some! He was also very responsive and flexible, as I called to change our PhotoShoot location ON THE DRIVE to the reception! (We had more time than we thought, and it turned out not to rain, so I took advantage of it! :) Most of all, all the guests loved him!

    Not only were we pleased with our engagement and wedding pictures, but we had a great time during the shoot. Alex is knowledgeable, kind, creative and incredibly fun as well. He did an amazing job at capturing our most precious moments and we look forward to continuing to work with him in the future.

    Alex is an amazing photographer. There is definitely and art to capturing a moment and Alex has that "X" factor for getting it beyond right. I could not be more happy with the photos and album that he created.
    I show them off every chance I get. It is worth noting that I was the groom and not really one to get excited over pictures. He will blow your mind!

    Alex was, simply put, amazing! He was so accommodating to us and was able to work with us to give us exactly what we wanted for our big day. I knew the end result would be stunning, but, I was not prepared for what I got. The pictures were so amazing I could have easily printed hung every single one of them up! He captured our love, the beauty of the ceremony and the fun of the reception in the most beautiful way. Whenever I look back on the pictures he took, I always find myself smiling because it's like I'm right back there on my wedding day.

    Alex was a wonderful photographer. Not only was he professional, but he was also warm, kind, and just a lot of fun to have at my wedding. The quality of his photos were wonderful and he wasn't shy about trying new and fun things. Not only was he a great photographer, but he was a delight to have at my wedding.

    This vendor is friendly and wants to please! Quality is good, but must say specifically what you want and need as far as shots go, then very cooperative.

    STAY AWAY! I wish I could give all ZEROS. I did not want to wrie this review but Alex has no professional or business skills and his actions speak louder than words. I was referred to use him and it was the worst mistake of my wedding experience. I hired him for my wedding and after my fiancé and I decided we were cutting down the size of our wedding. I would discuss the changes and he would yes me to death .THEN.... send me an email with absolutely nothing we dicusssed or agreed upon. He promises you one thing and then disappointly does another. His pictures are ok - he doesn't do any retouching - so note the only reviews are his friends and the only pictures he posts are one he actually posts to promote himself. Please I urge you to NOT use Alex, it will ruin your wedding experience
