My couples value feeling confident, cared for, and completely themselves in front of the camera. They want a photographer they can trust, someone who knows how to guide them effortlessly, make them feel beautiful, and capture images that feel honest, emotional, and alive.
They care about the experience just as much as the photos. They want to be fully present with their favorite people, laugh freely, dance hard, and soak in every moment while knowing their story is being documented with intention and artistry.
My couples love images that make them feel something, photographs that belong on their walls, in their albums, and in their lives for decades. They value the blend of classic, natural moments with a touch of creativity that elevates everything into something unforgettable.
If that sounds like you, you’re exactly who I love creating for.
Andrew
Beyond the moments themselves, each wedding is approached as a visual narrative shaped by your personalities, style, and emotion.
EXPERIENCE
Yes! I travel wherever your love takes us! As for Travel Fees, there are no travel fees for weddings within Southern California. For weddings outside of the area, reasonable travel expenses are included in your custom proposal.
In addition to standard digital wedding photography, I incorporate film and drone imagery into most of my weddings. These elements provide elevated, cinematic imagery that beautifully complements the classic and artistic shots I create. My gear includes Sony A7R V mirrorless cameras, a selection of film cameras, off-camera flash for editorial portraits and reception coverage, and primarily prime lenses for crisp, artful imagery.
Chances are, yes. I’ve had the privilege of photographing weddings across California, and I know how to make any venue look its best. If your venue is new to me, I’ll visit ahead of time to scout the best lighting, angles, and unique details, ensuring we’re fully prepared to capture everything beautifully.
One of the things my couples consistently share is how effortless being in front of the camera feels, with images that look natural and beautiful without having to try. My couples choose me because they want more than photos, they want artistry, creativity, and authentic emotion captured naturally with ease. The result is a gallery that feels timeless and magazine-worthy, yet completely personal, reflecting the unique story of your wedding day.
I like to create a completely tailored photography experience designed around your wedding, your venue, and the moments that matter most to you. Together, we craft a clear plan for your day. I anticipate every detail while leaving space for candid moments, ensuring nothing is missed and you can relax knowing everything you envisioned is captured beautifully.
I take on a limited number of weddings each year, so the sooner you reach out, the better your chances of securing your date. I recommend booking your photographer 12-24 months in advance. To lock in your date with me, simply reach out to schedule a consultation.
Yes. A 25% retainer is required to secure your date, and the remaining balance is due before the wedding day. Most people pay by Zelle. I also accept credit card, cash, check.
Yes! I focus on the photography side of your wedding day timeline, working closely with you and your coordinator to create a seamless schedule. This ensures all the photos you want are captured and no important moments are missed. You can relax knowing your day is organized, and I’ll guide the flow of photos so everything runs smoothly.
You will receive a set of 30-40 photos within 1 to 2 days after your wedding weekend, and your full online gallery is typically delivered within 4 to 8 weeks depending on busy months. Film photos can be delivered rather quickly as well, typically 1-2 weeks. Every couple is sent a personalized online gallery in addition to any albums or prints included in their collection.
You don’t need to worry about how to pose, where to stand, or whether every moment will be captured. From the first photo to the last, I guide you with calm, confident direction so you always look and feel your best. I keep things flowing, manage group and family photos with ease, and pay close attention to light, movement, and the small details that make images feel effortless and natural. I bring positive energy, keep the mood relaxed, and make sure you feel supported and confident throughout the day while your friends and family feel comfortable and taken care of as well. Your only job is to be present, enjoy every moment, and celebrate the people you love. I’ll take care of the rest and make sure your story is beautifully and intentionally captured.
what you can expect
One of the kindest compliments I often hear comes during the wedding day itself, usually from guests or other vendors who are simply watching things unfold. It’s comments like, “You make this look so easy,” or “I’ve never seen someone handle everything so smooth.” They see me move seamlessly from drone photography to editorial portraits with direct flash, then back into candid documentation, always anticipating moments before they unfold. That instinct comes from years of experience and allows the day to flow naturally. People feel comfortable, confidently guided, and fully present, while the images come together effortlessly.
"THE PHOTOS REALLY CAPTURE OUR BOND!"
what people say
I love to meet new couples. Our first meeting, often via phone call or video chat will be a chance to dream about your day, ask me questions and get to know each other. To secure your wedding date, I require a date payment deposit and a signed agreement.

YOUR STORY PRESERVED
ON THE BIG DAY
PREPARE & PLAN
After the day I will send an exciting sneak peek within 48 hours of the wedding. I put my heart and soul into editing, curating and preparing your full gallery of images before you receive the final delivery, full of your precious memories.
I approach your day prepared and ready to create. On one hand, I love to blend in like guests, documenting and capturing little moments as they happen. On the other, I will direct you when needed and ensure you look and feel your absolute best.
From timeline planning to location scouting I go the extra mile to ensure we have the time and space to create our images. I work closely with wedding planners to ensure things will run smoothly on the day.
I am so so happy we ended up going with Andrew. Every single picture turned out AMAZING and it was so fun. The great thing about Andrew is he doesn’t just take standard photos, instead he lets you be in the moment and he captures the love you have for your partner. My husband and I laughed so much and felt so in love during the shoot. He also makes you feel so comfortable! I would highly recommend Andrew to everyone of my friends and family!!
"Every single picture turned out AMAZING"
KRISTY & AJ
"Out of all the vendors I selected for my wedding Andrew was my favorite. Andrew specifically, went significantly above and beyond everything he promised to deliver. He made sure that everything I wanted, envisioned, and desired with my pictures and day in general were what I got. We received the most gorgeous photos shortly after our wedding. I would choose Andrew over and over again."
"above and beyond everything he promised"
"If you are looking for an amazing and professional photographer, look no further than Andrew and his team. We were truly blown away with our wedding photos. Andrew caught every raw moment and somehow was able to capture the pure magic and happiness we felt that day. We will forever cherish being able to relive our special day through the incredible photography. We can’t say enough good things about Andrew. Thank you so much Andrew!!!"
