    Alicia & Lorenzo's Wedding
    Alicia F.

    We were SO fortunate that RedSphere Studios was available to photograph both our Engagement photos and Wedding! The moment we looked at Alex's portfolio, we fell in love with his style and quality. When we met Alex in person, he was very kind, professional, and very easy to work with... we knew right away that we wanted to have him as our photographer. Our engagement photos were so much fun! Alex photographed us around San Francisco and captured dozens of amazing photos of us. We couldn't have asked for anything more. Working with Alex was not only easy, but so much fun! We knew that he was going to be outstanding at our wedding :) At our wedding, Alex and his partner were absolutely amazing. They came early to check out the venue, and made sure to capture every detail and moment. Alex was so incredible with using the venue (Dolce Hayes Mansion) to his advantage in utilizing every prop, furniture, scene, etc on the property to make very creative and stunning photos. We knew the photos were going to come out perfect, and they did! Feel free to check out our photos on Yelp, and let me know (message me) if you have any specific questions! I promise you that you will NOT be disappointed if you hire RedSphere for your wedding, or any special occasion :)

    Alex is AMAZING! We LOVE our pictures plus his pricing is very reasonable compared to other photographers in the area. His style is just what we were looking for, the colors (OMG!)! He is also quick to respond to emails, calls and/or texts. His photo package included an engagement shoot as well, where we went to 5 different places in the city. He sent us a few pictures within a week for us to use and took about a month for the rest to come. The other great thing about Alex is that he doesn't have a time limit during weddings. Most vendors only stay for 8-10 hours but Alex is not one of them. He made sure he had all the pictures we wanted before leaving. He even arrived to our airbnb house an hour before the scheduled time to make sure he has time to look around and take detail shots. He brought 2 assistants with him (Anastasia and Duy Ho), who were both equally amazing. All three of them were great to work with and were all very professional. We received over 550 photos from our wedding day and every single one of them turned out beautiful. You can definitely tell how much time and effort Alex put into them, which we truly appreciate. We've gotten so many compliments from family and friends. Most of them told us that they've seen a lot of wedding photos and ours are the best ones. Personally, we couldn't agree more! Thank you, Alex and we hope to work with you again in the future :)

    Alex and Anastasia, thank you so much for the wonderful photos of our wedding! We had our wedding on May 26th, 2018 at Regale Winery and we've already received 500+ photos from the event (talk about a fast turn-around). Alex and Anastasia are truly artistic photographers. My wife was the one who found some of their work online. While we are not at all professional photographers, we could immediately recognize that they had something of a unique style when it came to photography. At least in my opinion, they particularly like to play a lot with lighting contrast and reflections, which make for some stunning and unique photos. Their photos are also very vibrant and they do a fantastic job of incorporating the environment into their photos. Of course, seeing is believing, so I've included a few shots from our wedding, but to get the full experience, you should just hire them and get them to shoot your next event. Aside from the photos, Alex and Anastasia were very easy to work with. We met or skyped with Alex a few times before the wedding to go over details and make sure everyone was on the same page in terms of event order etc. at the wedding. On the day of, they showed up to our hotel in Los Gatos (which, I believe is more than 1 hour travel for them!) at 8am, and they didn't leave until after our reception after 10pm. That is true dedication. As some people have noted in other reviews, I would also emphasize that Alex and Anastasia take very natural photos. One of the things they told us early in the day was to basically ignore the cameras and just go about our day and they would do what they do best and capture the moments. While we had a bunch of set shots (cause family and friends of course), all the best photos were of us going about our day and having a blast. To Alex and Anastasia, our wedding was a blast, and we cannot thank you enough for helping us capture this day with such amazing photos.

    I had heard of Alex from seeing pictures he took for a fellow coworker. As soon as I saw those pictures I was in love! Luckily I got engaged a few months later and I knew exactly who I wanted to take our pictures! My husband and I met Alex and we saw a few more pictures but I was sold from the beginning. Having TWO photographers all day was great. It allowed for plenty of time for different picture locations. We took pictures as I got ready, as my husband got ready, before the ceremony, formals after, and did a session at the Palace of Fine Arts as well as a final session at the Westin St. Francis in SF. Alex and Carsten took our pictures. They were very nice and even took pictures of details like our rings, shoes, dress, cord, earrings, invite, etc. that I was too busy to even think about asking them to take but that shows the experience they have! They were up for anything and had some great ideas too. If you want great pictures, you really have to give Alex the time to take them and it was worth it. I adore our pictures they are gorgeous and have received a lot of compliments from family and friends. The colors are amazing and the detail to not only us but our surroundings in a picture is beautiful. They also managed to get some great actions pictures at our reception. I keep looking at our pictures over and over we are so happy with them. Alex pays a lot of attention to detail so do no expect to have your pictures soon. This work takes time but it is worth the wait!

    I stumbled across Alex when I did a Google search for "engagement photos san francisco", there was this one picture of a couple on the pier in rain that just stuck in my head...when I clicked on it, it lead me to his website. His website had amazing photos!!! Just the style I was looking for, not the cheesy point and smile type pictures that so many photographers do, there is a true art form in what he does, he has a very journalistic approach. I immediately thought #1 he is going to be outside my budget and #2 he is going to be booked, my fiancé and I decided about a week ahead of time to head up to San Francisco to get these done. I emailed him and I was surprised to find out that he is in my budget and available....score!!! Alex sent over a very detailed itinerary, it was great and listed which places we were going at what times to ensure we would get to all the places I wanted to shoot at. The morning of the shoot we left our house in Orange County at about 3 am so we could make it to San Francisco around noon and get ready for our pictures at 2:00. Alex was geared up and ready to go by 2:00. It started out partly cloudy and then turned to windy/rain. I cannot stress enough, this is why you hire an experienced photographer like Alex, he knew how to deal with all the elements and still make us look amazing in the pictures despite our lack of sleep. It took about 2 weeks to get out pictures back and we had them just in time for Christmas Eve to show all of our family. EVERYONE I mean EVERYONE told us these are the most amazing engagement pictures that they have seen. I cannot thank Alex enough, he is truly a gifted photographer that is reasonably priced. If you are in the San Francisco area and looking for a photographer reach out to Alex, I promise you won't be disappointed.

    I first want to mention that my fiancé is experienced in photography, which meant that finding a photographer for our engagement shoot that was up to his standards was a challenge. We were immediately drawn to Alex's unique style and attention to lighting. Alex and Anastasia made us look absolutely magical despite being outdoors in frigid temperatures. Alex was able to beautifully capture our beauty while doing justice to our surroundings. We wanted some specific shots and a shorter package and he was very accommodating and even got us our photos within a week despite the holidays.

    Alex and Anastasia are an absolute pleasure to work with! I was planning my wedding in California from Georgia and had contacted several photographers, and from the very beginning working with Alex was a breeze. His impeccable communication quickly put me at ease. Any question or concern I had was immediately addressed. Alex took the time to get to know us before our special day, which was a great touch on his part. Since we couldn't meet in person, we Skyped. We were still on our honeymoon when we were told our photos were ready, which was super cool! I still can't believe how amazing they came out! It was rainy and cold on our wedding day, but you can barely tell! Every picture they delivered is a favorite! I get asked by everyone I show my photos to "who did your photography? These are amazing!"

    Alex and his wife photographed our wedding in Napa in November 2019. They were so amazing, easy to work with, and provided the perfect amount of direction. It was a great wedding experience. The products they delivered were fantastic as well. The slideshow was so much fun to watch and every picture taken was so beautiful and captured the emotions of the day, we couldn't be happier. Thank you so much!

    5++ STARS!!! We used Alex|RedSphere Studios for our Big Sur wedding last September and can say this was THE BEST INVESTMENT we made! Not only was it easy to book & pay online but Alex was incredibly accommodating & amazing to work with. In the months leading up to our wedding, Big Sur was hit by a landslide, demolished bridge, and numerous road closures. It made our venue nearly impossible to access (We weren't sure if Alex would make the trip due to road conditions). Not only did he make it but he didn't try to up-charge & made us feel like our wedding was his top priority! He showed up on time with Anastasia (2nd photographer). Neither of us is comfortable in front of a camera but he instructed us & had us loosened up in no time. We were blown away by the photos Alex presented to us & our guests were as well. Every moment was accounted for. They captured the romance, fun, beauty, and intimacy of the day and he did it through his own unique and creative perspective. Alex & Anastasia were a joy to work with. We cannot thank Alex enough for his vision & hope to work with him again soon! ~A+M

I actually found Jennifer after searching online for photographers in San Francisco and her work immediately stood out. Her style felt fresh and unconventional -- more documentary and journalistic than traditional -- and I especially loved her use of black and white photography, which was a big reason we chose her. The day started at our hotel, where she jumped between our separate rooms to capture my wife and me getting ready. Before she had even gotten to our rooms, she had already scouted the perfect location for our first look. The moment was absolutely incredible, and she handled everything; we didn't have to do a thing but follow her lead. That professional confidence continued at City Hall. She has a masterful familiarity with the building. She took full control of the shoot, guiding us as she told us exactly where to stand, how to pose, and where to move next so we could just relax and enjoy the moment. As a photographer myself, I really appreciated her confidence and professionalism. All we had to do was follow instructions and be present. She knows San Francisco City Hall inside and out -- the lighting, the angles, the timing, and the key locations that truly matter -- every shot felt deliberate and it showed. The technical skill here is top-notch-- the compositions were beautiful, the balance of each frame was spot-on, and her gorgeous color grading. We received around 300 images, and the quality is so consistent that I plan to print every last one of them in large format to ensure we have a permanent physical archive. When we received the final package, we were so touched -- she sent our photos on a beautiful USB drive along with printed images, some sweets, and other thoughtful details. It was the perfect finishing touch to a genuinely wonderful experience. If you're getting married at City Hall -- or anywhere in San Francisco -- Jennifer Michelson / A Girl and a Camera is exceptional. Thank you Jennifer! Laura and Junior.

He's very professional, friendly, quick to respond, and just amazing to work with overall. I had just started wedding planning when I ran into a friend who told me Augie was their photographer and shared his info. We had looked through a number of photographers, but Augie's work stood out to us through all of it--his photos truly captured the feeling of each moment, and we loved everything in his portfolio. When we reached out, he responded so quickly and answered all our questions right away. For our engagement shoot, it was my husband's first time doing a formal photoshoot. Augie came very prepared, offered great tips, and made us feel completely at ease. He was so easy to talk to and work with, and we genuinely had such a fun time with him! He was also flexible with timing and weather to make sure we could get the best lighting. We were blown away by his ability to notice something special in just a few seconds and turn it into a beautifully captured moment. For our wedding day, Augie was even more impressive. I had shared our (very full) itinerary with him ahead of time, and I was surprised to notice that he knew it by heart. When we started running behind, he gently but efficiently helped move things along. Even though it was his first time at our venue, he had an incredible eye for finding perfect spots, turning a simple fence into a magical backdrop. He worked seamlessly around the golfers at our venue, guiding us at the right times and capturing the sweetest in-between moments. He also accommodated all our specific requests, including photos with our sports car and dress details. We absolutely love our wedding photos and all the special moments he preserved. We were also so impressed with how fast he sent us our sneak peek photos--it was such a fun surprise to get highlights so quickly. Overall, I can't stress enough how grateful we are for Augie and everything he captured during our engagement shoot and wedding day. We're so happy with all the memories he helped capture that we will cherish forever, and I truly can't recommend him enough.

He also surprised us with his cantonese, helping corral my family members to get the perfect shot. We were very satisfied with booking Augie.

They were the first vendor we booked after securing our venue, so we got to know them over the course of the year leading up to our wedding in August 2025. After coming across their photos when researching different potential photographers that had experience at our venue, we were very interested in meeting them. We had an initial video call with them and knew immediately that we wanted to book them for such a critical part of our wedding journey. There aren't enough words to describe how skilled and professional they are--they are amazing photographers (individually and as a duo) and clearly love what they do. Our proposal photoshoot was the only prior experience we had in terms of taking professional photos as a couple. We met them in person for the first time at our engagement photoshoot--they immediately made us feel comfortable and were seriously thoughtful about the entire process, whether it was the location choices, minute-by-minute weather changes/forecast, outfit changes, etc. It really feels like they plan for everything and care about the little details. When we asked them about another vendor they would potentially work with on the day of our wedding, they even referenced notes they made when they had worked with them for a prior wedding. Throughout the whole process, they were prompt communicators (frequently responding to an email within minutes!) and guided us with experience and patience that we really appreciated. Whenever we had something to discuss with them (including choices we needed to make as a couple), they never hesitated to give us suggestions and feedback. Even if they offered an alternative suggestion to an idea of ours, it always felt like they genuinely cared and they wanted what we wanted, and it never felt like criticism. We received our wedding photos just about 2 months after our wedding, and we love every single one of them (all 667)! They are truly the best photographers to work with and just lovely people to be around. We definitely plan to keep in touch with them for future photoshoots! :) TL;DR: You should have booked A Tale Ahead Photography yesterday!!
