AVOID Dominican Republic wedding photographer Alejandro Nunez (Entretenimiento Visual)

I'm in the process of looking for a good local photographer for my destination wedding in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic, but I had such a terrible and rude experience with Alejandro Nunez of Entretenimiento Visual that I had to post this in case anyone was seduced by his (admittedly) good-looking photography website.  A few email exchanges would probably reveal his true nature anyway, but save yourself the time. 

I emailed to ask if he was available on my date and whether he spoke English and he responded yes.  I then sent him a second email with 11 very basic questions (e.g. do you do a lot of beach weddings? what wedding packages do you offer? do you charge a travel fee? etc. -- seriously BASIC stuff).  I got a shockingly condescending and rude email back basically saying:
"you foreigners don't know anything even though you think you do, I've got plenty of wedding business already, I don't like your attitude, I'm not going to answer your questions and I don't want to work with you." 

He also began the email sarcastically with "look, my love" and ended it with "kisses," wrote the email entirely in caps and insulted my choice of wedding venue.  The elegant way out of working with me and my "attitude" would be to tell me that someone just paid a deposit for my date so he can't work with me.  But that would require some class.  

I've never encountered this kind of customer service before, particularly when I'm not in the wrong at all.  I'm not sure whether my having an obviously Asian last name had anything to do with it, but in any case, Alejandro Nunez is someone you should definitely avoid.
