We absolutely loved working with Andreia! In addition to her beautiful creative work, she is such a fun and easy person to hang out with. You probably spend more time with your photographer than anyone else on your wedding day (besides your spouse), and they see you in such intimate moments, so it's important to get along with them. It felt just like spending time with a friend all day! Our family also remarked on how friendly and nice she was.
Of course, we love our beautiful photos too. Having film photos was a non negotiable for me when looking for a photographer and she delivered some amazing ones (in addition to digital). We highly recommend Andreia!
Andreia is the BEST! I still can't believe I got so lucky to have her as our wedding photographer. She was super responsive and prepared throughout the entire process - she sent out questionnaires before each session to learn more about us and to make sure she captured all of the important details. I typically hate having my photo taken but she made me feel so comfortable and even fun! And, obviously, Andreia's photography style is stunning. We will treasure these photographs for the rest of our lives – they are moody, elegant, and simply gorgeous! And in addition to her creative genius she was just a fun gal to hang out with all day! She hyped me up, was a blast to chat and hang with, and all of my friends and family adored her.
How do I even begin to describe the absolute goddess that is Andreia? Literally could not have even asked for a better photographer. Not only did she graciously stick through several date changes due to the forever evolving pandemic, but when the wedding day finally did come, she completely blew away all expectations I could have had for a wedding photographer. When she showed up at the getting ready location, she walked into quite the chaotic scene and the bride (me!) running around like a chicken with my head cut off. Fortunately, she’s done this many times before and was able to reign us in and even helped with the flow of the day, keeping us on schedule and most importantly, assisting in keeping my head attached to my body lol. But really, if it weren’t for Dre, my wedding day wouldn’t have been nearly as amazing as it was. Her work speaks for itself, she has such a beautiful eye for photography. The photos are truly timeless and will be cherished for the rest of our lives. Plus, she never makes a pose feel awkward (and we are VERY awkward people) always boosts your confidence while taking photos. You really can’t ask for much more out of a photographer! If you’re considering booking Dre, do it!! You will most definitely not regret it. :)
Having Dre photograph our wedding was 1000% the best decision!! When you choose a photographer, you're sharing your entire day, your family, your most intimate moments together with them. Dre is the PERFECT person to have by your side because it is like hanging out with your amazingly talented friend all day. Not only is she super fun, warm and made all our friends and family comfortable - she's extremely professional and her beautiful photos really speak for themselves.
If I could give more stars I would!
Dre is not only an amazing photographer, but an awesome person as well! She's funny, charismatic, flexible, dependable, and will go out of her way to make your day a dream. She will get your classic family shots, sure, but where she stands out are in those emotional moments. The tears, the laughs; those split seconds where a photo will let you relive that emotion, Dre will capture it. Do yourself a favor and hire her.
I cannot recommend Andreia enough! Being in front of the camera is not something my husband or I have ever really been comfortable with but she made every step of the process easy and enjoyable. We recently received our gallery and are so overwhelmed by all of the beautiful images and moments she captured - she even put together a little slideshow for us!
I'm so glad Andreia was the one to photograph our favorite day and we look forward to working with her again in the future.
Andreia was an ABSOLUTE DELIGHT to work with and made our teensy micro covid wedding feel so extra special! We couldn’t be happier that we chose to work with her for our wedding. Her skill and professionalism are top notch and her warm personality makes it feel like she’s part of the family. 10/10 would recommend!
We are so happy that we chose Andreia to photograph our wedding! We immediately felt comfortable with her, and she seamlessly fit in to our wedding day. She was able to capture so many moments from our wedding, and I know that we will cherish our photos for many years!
The day flew by but Andreia was there to capture all the moments we wanted to look back on. Making the choice to have Andreia with us on our wedding day was crucial to the day going smoothly as she knows the ropes and any anxiety of missing out melted away because I knew she was there to get those memories. The photos came out perfect and everyone who saw them had so many nice things to say.
Andreia was a phenomenal choice for mine and my (now) husband's wedding. I did a lot of searching on Instagram/knot etc. to find someone who was talented, but more importantly, someone personable and down to earth. It was important to us to support a small business and really get that one on one attention needed when planning a wedding/elopement/engagement session.
Andreia helped us create a time line, list our must have photos and always promptly answered any questions we had leading up to the ceremony. Day of, she was everything you'd want in a photographer, on-time, she set a great tone, she took initiative to get all the detail photos and knew all the tricks to getting my dress to look just right. My husband felt at ease in front of the camera and so did I. The photo ideas she had were original and made our photos unique to us and our surroundings.
We recommend Andreia for your event and will for sure hire her again in the future.
Andreia Claro is amazing! My (now) wife and I spent a lot of time going back and forth about a ton of decisions for our wedding but after she showed me Andreia's Instagram account, hiring her as our photographer was the quickest, easiest decision we made. We hired her based on the quality of her photography alone but after working with her I now understand that her brilliance as a photographer isn't just her technical skill, but also how personable she is. I really don't like being photographed but she found ways to make me feel really comfortable by being incredibly warm and fun to work with. She gets great photographs not just because she has real technical skill with a camera but also because of who she is behind the camera. She really became a wonderful part of our wedding. I should add that we booked her before Covid hit and we had to change all of our wedding plans throughout the year but Andreia totally stuck with us through our shifting plans and was a big part of what made our revised, tiny, socially distant wedding feel like a true celebration. I give her my very honest, highest recommendation.
