Here are some recent features of the beautiful weddings we’ve photographed. More coming soon… 2012 is going to be an exciting year. Stay tuned.
What a year was 2011! Many would agree that 2011 was a year of changes which literally have shaken the world. So many things happened around us. The world looks much different now.
Meet Tim and Louisa, a newly engaged and handsome couple Alex recently photographed…
From Tim & Louisa:
It is easy to find a plethora of great shooting locations in the city, and certainly we would have gotten a countless number of frame-worthy shots had we decided to spend all six hours in SF. However, we decided to make our lives (and Alex’s) more difficult and spend the first half of the shoot driving around the East Bay, and the rest in the city at a later date.
We knew we wanted to get some shots at a winery, since both of us enjoying throwing back a bottle together whenever we have some time to relax. We got some fun candids in the vineyards at Wente, as well as some great Fall shots in the small park across the street.
It was important to us to get some photos at the place we first met and started dating – Canyon Middle School, in our hometown of Castro Valley. While we were there, we even got to visit our 8th grade science teacher, who was right were we left him some 13 years ago! That made for a great time and some fun shots as well.

I love the creativity you put into your photos. The fall leaves look great 2nd set of photos. I also really like how you guys used the classroom setting. That was really cool. Great work!
Love the photos at the winery and on those blue rocks. Also, love the ones in front of the school bus, very unique!
We had a great time on the shoot, and just loved the way the photos turned out. Thanks, Alex!!
Wow – beautiful photos! I love the school bus ones, how creative, that is something I haven’t thought of before and may use for a shoot here. 
Thanks!
Great set of pictures- excellent consistency of style. Love it!
Love the engagement pictures. I didn’t know it was popular to take engagement pictures but I guess they can be displayed at the wedding.
Beautiful photographs the couple look so happy and relaxed together. Photographing their wedding should be great fun.
Guliano and Fabiana decided to tie the knot on the beautiful island off the coast of Italy called Isola di Ischia. Alex made another 5000 miles trip to photograph this wedding.

Last two months were beyond busy for us. Covering events pretty much on a daily basis, with weekends booked back to back including another wedding in Europe, we had a very little time to spend on anything besides editing. That’s the reason for not posting. During this period, IQphoto was featured on numerous websites such as Style Me Pretty, Maharani Weddings, South Asian Bride Magazine, Intimate Weddings and more I looked at NorCal edition of the Knot Magazine and spotted our photos there as well. We are now official vendor of Ritz Carlton San Francisco and my brother’s video is a official video of BR Cohn Winery.
In the last two months we have covered series of amazing weddings. And I will do my best to post them in the near future. Here is an absolutely gorgeous wedding of Alla and Victor that took place at St. Regis Hotel in San Francisco last month. It was a wedding with an ultimate attention to details, incredible entertainment and world class cousine. More importantly it was a wedding of two people with true friends and loving family who supported them along the way. Both me, Alex and my brother with his team participated in covering this wedding with help of many other leading wedding specialists. Enjoy the photos.
