My Philosophy
My philosophy centers on authenticity, creativity, and a deep appreciation for the unique stories of each couple.
In the picturesque landscapes of the Pacific Northwest (PNW), I strive to capture genuine moments as they unfold. Whether it’s a grand celebration or an intimate courthouse wedding, my goal is to document the authenticity of you. Combining fine art elegance with candid shots, I create a narrative that reflects your love story. I believe a good photographer is priceless because your story is priceless. You’re investing in how you will remember and how others will perceive your special moments 30, 40, even 50 years from now. It hurts that memory is so fleeting, but beautifully captured photographs preserve these moments forever. You can't put a price on that.
You are a star, these are your memories, and you deserve to feel that way in front of the camera. I know how intimidating being in front a camera can be, so feeling comfortable and natural in front of the camera is key. Through detailed discussions and pre-wedding sessions, I ensure a stress-free experience, allowing your true emotions to shine through.
Although I am based in Seattle, I capture the beauty of weddings across the PNW and beyond. Whether a destination wedding or a local courthouse ceremony, I bring expertise and creative vision to your special day.
Your wedding photos are heirlooms for generations and your story deserves to be preserved and shared.

I am so glad that I stumbled across Andre. I can’t say enough about how professional he is and the quality of work that he provides. He made every effort in making us comfortable and to mention one thing I liked the most that he had great ideas for the poses.
I was so pleased with my session and final photographs.

Cannot recommend Andre enough!!!!! We hired him for our destination wedding in Aruba and he got along SO well with our group of friends, I am sure they will be hiring him for their upcoming events. My family also kept asking me where I found him because he made everyone feel so comfortable and confident in front of the camera. I also want to highlight that the meetings to prepare beforehand were so easy and he truly listened to everything I want photographed and made me feel heard.

I happened to come across Andre’s portfolio online and was very impressed. During our consultation it felt like we connected with Andre so easily and were able to convey our wedding theme. He took our simple wants and turned them into a work of art. Andre truly captured our personalities and the classic elegance of our wedding. The moment I received the images I cried. Never had I expected the beauty he captured for us on our day. Thank you Andre for capturing every moment the way you did.

Andre did my engagement photoshoot, and I couldn’t have asked for someone better. From inquiry to receiving our photos, he was professional, kind, and incredibly talented. I inquired last minute, and he was very responsive. He was flexible with scheduling and adjusted for weather... My fiancé and I were shy at first, but Andre made us comfortable (even in the freezing cold, rain, and hail!). He was also very accommodating with our dog, which was important to us. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented, friendly, and professional wedding photographer.

My fiancé and I had the best experience working with Andre. He is very communicative and creative. We had an initial meeting describing the photoshoot/style/ideas and then during the shoot he led us and helped us with posing and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Andre is very attentive to details, if you want someone who can not only deliver photos in a timely manner but someone who is passionate about what they do- please book with weddingsbyAndre!

We enjoyed getting photographed by Andre. He is a talented artist with his unique style. We loved his work and professionalism.
We had to reschedule our photoshoot couple of times, he was flexible. We also had to change the location last minute due to weather conditions, Andre recommended the location and it worked out well. We had a great time. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to enjoy the experience.

My husband and I hired Andre for our courthouse wedding. He was highly communicative with us throughout the whole process.
On our wedding day, he was very patient with our family. He helped us by telling us how to pose. Since it was our first time getting pictures taken, he made us feel comfortable.
We are delighted with our pictures. Every time we look at them, we comment on how good of a job he did.

We would definitely work with him again!
