Info: About Andrew

Andrew has had many photographers in his family going back to his great-great uncle whose photographs, taken from single-engine propeller planes during World War I, are in the Smithsonian collection.

Andrew has worked professionally as both a wedding photographer and an award-winning newspaper and magazine photojournalist since 2003. He has been recognized with awards from the White House News Photographers Association for the last four years in a row.

Work in news photography has taken him all over the country to cover subjects including politics, sports, and natural disasters. In recent years he has recorded traumatic stories such as Hurricane Katrina and the Virginia Tech shootings, as well as momentous celebrations including Barack Obama's rise to the presidency, visits to the U.S. by the Queen of England and Pope Benedict XVI.

A wedding day, of course, is one of life's most joyous occasions, and we approach it with the same care, diligence and forethought as any news story. The key to our work is finding and expressing the emotional core of the day, helping to convey the love of two people to friends and family, now and into the future.

In addition to posed portraits of happy wedding couples and their family and friends, we capture wedding days in the same photojournalistic style that we use for newspapers and magazines. In other words, rather than interjecting our direction into the activities during the day and dictating what the bride, groom and guests “should” be doing, we watch as unobtrusively as possible to catch the real moments that happen throughout the day -- from the big laughs shared with the entire wedding party to the quiet affections behind the scenes.

The results are once-in-a-lifetime photographs that you can remember and cherish for the rest of your life.
