About Andrew
Hey there! I’m Andrew, wedding photographer with six years experience capturing love stories. Over the years, I’ve had the honor of photographing more than 350 weddings, each a unique and beautiful story.
My own wedding played a huge part in me becoming a wedding photographer. In 2017, I married my high school sweetheart, Sierra, under the massive sequoia trees in Sequoia National Park. That day was filled with so much love, joy, and emotion. It truly lives up to the hype! With my passion for storytelling and years of experience behind the camera, I set out to make wedding photography my career, and it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
Now, I pour my heart into documenting love stories for couples, capturing moments people forever cherish. It’s not just a job for me, it’s something I genuinely love doing and am honored to call my job.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
✦ WHAT EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE?
I keep it simple and high-quality. My go to setup is a Sony A7R V with a G-Master 24-70mm 2.8 lens for about 80% of the day. For those intimate moments, I switch to an 50mm prime lens. When it gets dark, I’ve got on camera flash ready. Occasionally, I’ll bring out the drone for some epic aerial shots. Everything is backed up with dual SD cards, and I always have spare gear on hand, just in case.
✦ DO WE MEET IN PERSON BEFORE THE WEDDING?
If you're up for meeting in Irvine, let’s do it! But with the number of weddings I shoot, in person meetings aren’t always possible. That said, I’m always available for FaceTime or a call. We’ll also have plenty of time to vibe and get to know each other during your engagement shoot!
✦ WHAT'S THE TURNAROUND TIME?
You'll get a sneak peek within 48 hours of your wedding just to hold you over! The full gallery is typically ready in 4-8 weeks. For engagement shoots, expect everything within 2-4 weeks.
✦ DO YOU HELP WITH THE TIMELINE?
Absolutely! Before the big day, we’ll hop on a call to craft a custom photo timeline. It’s flexible, and we’ll adjust as needed, but I’ll make sure all your key moments are covered. We can even get started early if you’re ready to lock it in!
✦ HAVE YOU SHOT AT MY VENUE BEFORE?
Probably yes lol, but I promise this isn’t something to worry about! I’ve shot at tons of venues across California, and I know how to make any location look incredible. If I haven’t shot at your venue, I’ll scout it beforehand to make sure everything is dialed in.
✦ DO YOU REQUIRE A DEPOSIT?
Yes! I require a $1000 deposit at the time of booking. The rest of the payment is simply due any time before your wedding day!
✦ HOW MANY HOURS COVERAGE DO I NEED?
