Andrea Cary Photography

Andrea and her husband were so amazing!!! I am so happy that I chose her for my wedding because she definitely is the best. She took both our engagement photos in Tallahassee and our wedding in Jacksonville. She went above and beyond in every way. She was in constant contact with me throughout the whole process. I was a complete mess on the day of and she kept everyone and everything so organized. When things started going south at the end of my wedding, (when my limo never showed and my Chinese lanterns wouldn't light) she kept us calm and smiling the whole time. The pictures were amazing and I got over 800 photos of my wedding day. I would recommend her to any and everyone.

Andrea was, by far, the best vendor we worked with for our wedding! From start to finish, she made the process stress-free and enjoyable. Her packages are clearly laid out & extremely reasonable given the quality of her work. She was always quick to respond to any e-mails or phone calls, which made hiring a long-distance photographer no different than hiring one with a studio in-state. Leading up to the wedding, she had me send her a link to my pinterest page of wedding photos to get a general idea of my style – and on the big day, she showed up with a printed version of my pinterest page. As we went through the day, she checked off all the photos I had pinned. We got every photo we could have wanted!! I loved that she never tried to force us into a certain “style” of wedding photography – her goal was to make sure we got the wedding photos that reflected us. Andrea is a true professional and we will treasure the photos for the rest of our lives! I highly recommend Andrea as a wedding photographer!

Wedding Photography is a huge chunk of any wedding budget. So it makes the decision of who to pick so much more important. We chose Andrea because she was available, seemed pretty talented, and a reasonably priced photographer (in our opinion). BEST DECISION OF THE WEDDING! In all the chaos that is your wedding day the one person I could count on was her. Andrea is all the things you would hope for, she is prompt with reply's to emails (usually within 24 hours), professional, quick with sneak peeks (a HUGE plus), and flexible (i got the flu the day of our original engagement shoot and had to postpone). However,Andrea was so much more than just another wedding photographer! She made the whole process so much more relaxing by always keeping her sessions fun and upbeat. She has a lot of energy and enthusiasm for photography and it shows when your around her. She was always looking ahead while shooting for new and exciting ways to capture the moments. I could tell her biggest concern was always making sure she was capturing all the right moments. She showed up a little early to the wedding just to make sure she would capture everything that needed to be photographed. (Something unheard of in the wedding world of charge by the hour) Another plus was all the tips she gives you about how to photograph well. If you listen you will shine in the photos! I'm no model nor do i usually photograph well, So this was a huge plus for me! She shot a few vintage style photographs of me getting ready on my big day that took my breath away! I commend her greatly for handling my rowdy bridal party with ease. After the 50th photo where they tried to sneak beer into the pic she still kept a professional face. I even gave her permission to get stern with them, if they were driving her as crazy as they were me. But she still kept a relaxed, calm, and fun atmosphere. I chose the option to have a second photographer and she brought John, who captured one of my favorite shots of the wedding. I'm so glad I splurged for that option! I highly recommend it! The most important aspect of the photographer is the end result of the photos. She produced around 700 edited photos. Almost too many to pick from, I have so many favorites it's hard to count! My husband and I shine in almost all of them. They really are breathtaking! I can't thank her enough! Andrea is a great choice and I would recommend her to anyone shopping for a photographer.

I first heard about Andrea Cary Photography on theknot.com so I looked up her website & facebook page. I was pleased with her portfolio so I contacted her & we worked out an agreement for my wedding. She drove from Tallahassee, FL over to Destin, FL for our destination wedding at Henderson Beach State Park in Destin. Andrea was a joy to work with! She came to our rental house and took photos of the bridal party getting ready, we then went on to the park & did "First Look" photos. She was also our photographer for the ceremony & reception. The morning after the wedding, Andrea met us back at the park for a 1 hour "Trash the Dress" session. Andrea was always very nice & prompt about returning any of my emails/text messages during the planning phase. She was on time on the wedding day, a little early even & was willing to work with us to make sure everything was perfect. Her prices are reasonable -- remember, you don't want to go with a wedding photographer just because they're the cheapest when you'll be looking back on those photos for years to come. We were trying to keep our destination wedding on a pretty tight budget around $7500 so her prices were perfect for us. The results were fantastic! We ended up with about 700 edited photos and they are just beautiful. I've gotten so many compliments on the wedding pictures. I would absolutely choose Andrea again!
