Testimonials:
"I work as an illustrator for Nordsd Verlag Zurich. I am starting a new childrens picture book, a fairy tale from old Russia. Searching the internet for pictures of houses, stoves, costumes, landscapes etc I came across your inspiring and informative photographs. They will help me greatly in building up my own ideas for each illustration. Your pictures are beautiful."
Bernadette Watts, illustrator

"I recently stumbled upon the works of Alexander who mostly photographs of nature and worldly travels. He does a great job capturing images of nature while balancing colours and composition in all of his photographs." Kerry at Tryst Jewelry

"Alexander's nature photos are wonderful - what few people know though is that his people pictures are every bit as sensitive and creative. I have used many of his pictures in my work and he has a natural ability to select the right photograph for every situation. His attention to detail is great, and he is a well-kept secret in the world of nature photography!" Liza, Director of DiversEarth

"I oversee a college program that supports students who serve as full-time volunteers. Our motto is: "Growing seeds of wisdom: one perspective, one life, one community at a time." When I saw Alexander's photography it immediately resonated with my understanding of our dynamic and evolving world. His images inspire reflection - reflection on the past, present and future. One of Alexanders's images in particular, Fun Journey, is a visual image that will when shown help to spark our educational team to think about programmatic trends and new opportunities that are diverse and deeply contextualized." Lynn C. White Cloud, Tucker Foundation, Dartmouth College's Center for Service, Spirituality and Social Justice
