for the couples
that value how photos make them
northern virginia & DC wedding photography
feel
IF you want your wedding to feel like a joyful and refined GARDEN PARTY rather than a massively stressful FAMILY REUNION…..
— Then let’s create a timeline that’s more about enjoying your wedding than taking photos during it. Tell me how you want your day to feel and flow, and let’s make it happen!
Through intimate ceremonies and micro-weddings, we’ll work together to create a wedding photography experience that prioritizes how you want your wedding day to flow; with all the giggles, forehead-kisses, and grab-and-grins.
- megan & alex
My family and friends faved about Andrea's skill behind the camera and bubbly personality for days after the wedding."
"OUR WEDDING PHOTOS ARE ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE.
- LIZZY & RYAN
She has such a joyful, fun personality and really puts you at ease."
"It felt like having a good friend taking our photos.
- hannah & mark
She did such an excellent job making my husband and I feel comfortable, and was the type of photographer who will help guide you in every aspect of the process.
"She is not only an amazing photographer, but also is the type of human being that just brightens any room
GETTING THE FORMALS DONE IN NO TIME = MORE TIME TO sip cocktails with your fave people
It’s easy to lose yourself - in the stress, in the timeline, in entertaining your guests and their expectations. Let’s dial it back to the now. All those moments you want captured, from the posed family formals to the little details you’ve almost already forgotten, will be there. Focus on your friends, your family, some wedding bliss, and I’ll capture the rest.
I’m all about quality over quantity. That means more joy, more “now”, and fewer distractions.
"She has all of the professionalism in the world and yet can still make you feel like her best friend"

my philosophy
Quality over quantity and doing things right the first time. You invest in things you believe in.
Clear, transparent communication and respect. You want your needs to be heard and valued.
WHAT TO EXPECT
COMMUNICATION
Raise your GLASS OF PROSECCO if you believe in:
SUSTAINABILITY
A detailed to-do list is your JAM. You value having a solid plan to lean on - and rewarding yourself for completing said plan ;)
ORGANIZATION
Time is valuable. It should be spent wisely, focusing on the things that matter most to you.
WORKING HARD & PLAYING HARD
I LOVE A LITTLE KATE MIDDLETON CLASS, BUT REALLY, I’M ALL JESSICA DAY VIBES OVER HERE
I'm Andrea!
Feeling confident and joyful in front of the camera is the responsibility of the person behind it. It’s up to me to radiate warmth, joy, and humor between each frame so your photos BEAM with emotion.
I want to make you chuckle. I want to make you grin. I want you to connect with your partner and your guests. I want you to be totally immersed in how you feel, and not worry at all about how you look (because you look like a million royal bucks - come on!)
I make sure you’re prepared and relaxed so the day feels as smooth and cozy as a cashmere scarf. Whether that means firmly sticking to the timeline, sneaking you an espresso before your vows, or handing you my flip flops so you don’t step in the mud in your heels - don't worry, I've got ya covered.

Fill out the product photography contact form and I'll respond within 24-48 hours with a link to hop on a call. This call gives me more information to price your project appropriately. Afterwards, you'll receive a proposal with a link to sign your contract and pay your 50% deposit.
Both! Depending on your vision and product needs, I'll either set up your shoot in my in-house studio or rent a location for some more lifestyle photos.
50% deposit is due at the time of booking, and the other 50% is due at the start of your assigned project week.
I’d love to travel to your location, either domestically or internationally! Travel costs are $60 per hour after the first complimentary hour of drive time. I always book my own airfare and lodging fees, and roll into your final package price so you don’t have another thing to coordinate.
Yes! That's actually what most of my clients do and is how I'm able to serve businesses from all around the world. Clients are responsible for shipping to my place of business - if you'd like your products to be returned, you are also responsible to pay that shipping cost. Otherwise, your products will be kept for 6 months and then used or given away.
Absolutely! My process mixes questions and prompts to evoke genuine emotion, with clear and reassuring posing directions so we capture a mix of formally posed and as-it-happens photojournalism.
I create custom packages for all of my clients. I would love to hear more about your vision and create a custom package based on your product photography needs, locations, or other unique details from your vision.
I usually book 2-3 months in advance, but it varies on the season. Definitely still inquire to get your project on the calendar.
Turnaround time is 14-21 days from your project start week. Your gallery will be delivered via online gallery with high-res and web-size images.
