Hi, I’m Andrea.
A Portland, Oregon photographer will make the pictures of your special day the easiest and simplest part of the entire wedding process. I don't think finding the right photographer should be stressful or worrisome. I'm here to let you sit back and focus on what's important, your big day. I will be there when you need me, but stand back when you don't. I will make sure having the photographs taken are just as fun and romantic as the wedding itself.
I'm also a travel photographer + producer, so if you're looking for something outside of the same-old-same-old, love PDAs, need help with planning/locations/permits, and/or want to document the entire trip/destination/series of wedding events… then I'm your gal.
Originally from Eastern Europe, I grew up in Portland, Oregon, before moving to New York City to study photography at Parsons School of Design. I spent several years working at several home + women’s magazines— House & Garden, Martha Stewart Living, Everyday Food, and Seventeen— inspired by the beautiful photography around me every day including food, interiors, gardens, and weddings! I then moved to London to pursue freelance production + photo editing for a few years. Fast forward to several years ago when I moved back to Portland, Oregon, where my family still lives today, to work as art producer making the impossible possible for a prestigious boutique advertising agency along with its roster of clients large and small. With 20 years of experience on both sides of the lens, I’m ready to be your local wedding photographer wherever you want to ship me. I can do much more than shoot, so just ask.
After work and on weekends you can find me surfing, snowboarding, hiking, reading, cooking, and likely traveling somewhere to do any of the activities I just mentioned.
Here’s what a recent bride had to say about working with me…
”I can’t even begin to describe how amazing Andrea’s artistry, professionalism, and willingness to go above and beyond for us was appreciated. She helped us solve issues and provide structure I didn’t even know we needed. And the amount of pictures she took of precious moments that were absolutely breathtaking was overwhelming. The quality was exactly what I was looking for and perfect for posting in our house, as well as sharing with family and friends. She posed us and our family to get the best pictures, which is what I needed. She delivered on all counts! I couldn’t give a better recommendation for a photographer than her!” — Kawai Medeiros, Portland, OR
