I believe the power of photography lies is its connection to the real world. There is a visceral connection constructed between the photograph and the viewer. We want to believe the object photographed existed in the real world.Susan Sontag in her seminal work On Photography, said, "Whatever the limitations (through amateurism) or pretensions (through artistry) of the individual photographer, a photograph - any photograph - seems to have a more innocent, and therefore more accurate, relation to visible reality than do other mimetic objects".

Alex Labry was everything we could have wanted as a photographer for our party last week. His photos are of the highest quality. But most importantly, he has a personality that made everyone comfortable. He posed both singles and groups with excellent thought to the finished product. The photos were ready very quickly.

To Whom it May Concern: My name is Kay Pickett and I was lucky enough to join the Fortier Class of 1963 at the Elms Mansion. Almost as soon as I arrived, Alex Labry was pointed out to me and everyone was touched and delighted that he was there in person taking our pictures! "His reputation is outstanding, and he is here for us!" was heard often. As Mr. Labry moved around the rooms, he was always accompanied by a crowd ready to have their pictures taken.
What was best is that HE seemed to be enjoying his work. Today I was able to see some of those pictures and see how he captured the spirit of the longtime love for one another that was apparent and wonderfully captured on film. Looking at the lengthy list of those students (friends) we have already lost, our numbers will grow smaller, but this reunion stands forever, captured in photography by a generous top professional, and we are very grateful!

Recently I needed some pictures taken by Alex 10 years ago at the Texas Family Land Heritage Awards ceremony and, sure enough, he still had them. I have contacted him twice since he took the pictures in 2008 and each time I speak to Alex he is very pleasant and goes out of his way to get whatever I need. He took the time to work on a special order I requested and the results were perfect. Alex is amazing. Thank you for your talent and the special attention you give to your work. I especially appreciate your patience and kindness.

If you are looking for a photographer to get that picture you wish you had and thought you never would, then you want Alex Labry Photographer to take your pictures. He goes out of his way to get just what you want, are asking for, and goes way beyond the call of duty to make sure you are Extremely pleased! He understands what those memorable moments of just the right picture will mean to you later on in years.
He is also VERY reasonable on his prices for the Fabulous Quality of Pictures you get. Whatever the occasion is, you want to get Alex to be your photographer! Thank you Alex from the bottom of my heart for getting those once in a lifetime pictures for me and my husband John at the Land Heritage in Austin, Texas
