Andrejka Photography

d and I around Petoskey between the ceremony and the reception and took the most beautiful shots. They managed to take great portraits and candid pictures of our families, including many toddlers and many dogs! They were great with the kids and somehow even managed to take amazing shots during kid meltdowns! Of the THOUSANDS of pictures we received, somehow there was not a bad one in the bunch. They all turned out so beautiful, and Andrejka and McKenna made it look effortless. We have gotten so many compliments on all of the pictures, and it's been so hard to pick our favorites. We would definitely recommend booking Andrejka for your wedding!

grapher ever! We would love to have her take some photos again for us sometime in the future! We are usually people who shy away from photos, but she made it so easy to relax on the day! Out of everything in the wedding, we felt she was the best vendor we had! I have never gotten so many compliments before than I did on our wedding photos! She has a very artistic eye! She is so kind and kept the day going smoothly! Her planning before the wedding helped me organize the timeline for the wedding day! I would recommend her to anyone! Love from the Eden and Antonio Lecea wedding! Photography: Andrejka Photography

recommend her to anyone who asks.

e pressure off of you on your big day. She keeps track of all the details, while also being mindful of the big picture and just makes your life easy-breezy. I honestly cannot imagine my wedding day without her, her team, her eye for detail and the beautiful photos we will have to cherish forever. It's well worth the investment!

someone I have always admired and who came highly recommended from the Mackinac Island community. A wedding on Mackinac Island, wether large or small, includes several unique working parts, along with a community of amazing people. Getting to any location on your day, for example, requires a horse and carriage! Andrejka has been a part of this community for over 15 years and knows everyone that is a part of making your day run flawlessly. Even better, she has the perfect locations for every portrait. My favorite saying of hers that brought me great comfort was "I become your brain so you can enjoy the day". I planned in detail the perfect intimate wedding. Being the bride, I needed a community of people to pull it off. I even had a surprise dress change. With all little details thought about and talked about before hand, she went above and beyond meeting my expectations. Every guest and family member commented on the amazing job she was doing. She gave not only my husband and I confidence in the day but also everyone who attended. She made us feel like movie stars. To say I ugly cried when I got my gallery from her is an understatement! We will forever have the joy and love of the most important day in our lives captured because of her. She also was able to capture the magic of Mackinac Island. Thank you Andrejka for your talent. We were privileged to have you as our photographer.

ld not have been more reassuring and down-to-earth to make us feel so comfortable. The pictures we were able to get were so stunning, and just absolutely perfect. We were able to receive them so quickly and it was so painless to go through them on the site and look through them individually and it didn't take long for us to decide we wanted them all. I could not recommend Andrejka enough and would give 10 stars if I could.

s. She also is just a very cool, chill but energetic person and made us feel so at ease taking our pictures. Kara assisted her with our wedding photos and also was beyond amazing. I HIGHLY recommend hiring Andrejka to capture some amazing photos.

which ones to hang on the wall.

ed her so much we decided to have her do a one year anniversary photoshoot as well. She put us right at ease when it came to photos. Right away, it felt like our best friend was taking our pictures, that's how comfortable it was. She'd offer amazing suggestions for photo opportunities, while also making sure to cater the experience to what we were like as a couple. We get so, so many compliments on our photos. I couldn't recommend her enough.

d us to plan a new dream wedding and make it a reality. Truly, the stars aligned and secondary to numerous Covid cancelations, we were blessed with a fabulous wedding team. On the day of wedding, she put us at ease and took the most amazing photos of my (new) husband and I. Now after months of wedding stress our only concern is how do we possibly pick favorites out of all the amazing photos that she captured? There are several that belong in a wedding magazine. She made our wedding nightmare turn into a dream wedding. Thank you Andrejka.

ejka and Cherry never missed a beat! We purchased the associate package as Andrejka already had a wedding scheduled, and we were impressed at how much communication and effort went into the collaboration between the two photographers. Andrejka even shared in our day, but photographing the reception, and the sparkler ceremony. Could not be more grateful! I still get tears in my eyes when I look at the photos.

ing "She knows exactly what she wants to get out of the picture, but is so nice about getting everybody organized to get the shot!" On top of it all, our pictures are stunning! She was creative in where and how to get pictures and we are so incredibly happy with them. Additionally, she got us the pictures back SO soon! I've heard nightmares about friends waiting months and months for their wedding photos - it was such a nice surprise to get ours back so quickly! If we were able to do everything over again for our wedding, I would absolutely choose Andrejka again and again! I HIGHLY recommend her!

ould not even imagine possible. When she sent me my photos to upload, I felt like I was looking at a wedding magazine cover story. They were incredible! Be prepared to be thoroughly in love with her work. I was so excited to use her services before and after the wedding...and you will too!

feel comfortable. She was great at sticking to the schedule and rallying the group. We absolutely LOVE our pictures and cannot wait to get our photo album in the mail. We were looking for someone to capture candid and less staged photos and she really nailed it. I highly recommend booking her services! You won't regret it!!!

otos!!

couple, we really did a lot of research before settling on a photographer that fit our style. We are so incredibly grateful we went with Andrejka to document our special day! Can’t wait to do another photo shoot with her in the future!

tions. Everyone in our wedding party, family and friends loved her. You won’t regret having her capture your special day. Thank you again!!

love with her. She’s always upbeat, makes it easy to be in front of a camera, and takes AMAZING photos. We don’t regret anything about hiring Andrejka—she’s the best!!!

d us what was most important and then we booked a nature adventure wedding day photo shoot. It was the absolute best part of our day aside from vows. We are saving our pennies to book her again for future events. We cannot recommend her enough! Super talented and can make your day a great time! I was so excited to peek at how many incredible photos she captured and made us {a rather shy couple} so comfortable and outgoing for the shoot. I cannot recommend her enough!!!

made it fun for the bride and groom and made them feel at ease. She is so creative in the way she takes pictures. I highly recommend her services.

ld highly recommend Andrejka Photography.

when we saw them, they were more than we could have hoped for. She kept saying that she loved capturing the story of the day. It didn't make sense until we saw our pictures, and we were able to relive the whole day. Andrejka captured the goofy times, the serious ones and most importantly our love. We definitely recommend hiring her as your photographer!

ng. We are glad that we found her

ing and creative vision produced pictures that were beyond my expectations. I would hire again without a doubt and she is your go to girl for your wedding pictures. She made the day stress free and helped my husband and I feel comfortable with taking so many pictures. She was by far my best decision when it came to wedding and I hope to get the chance to use her again for future life events!

perfectly. The day of the wedding, I went to get my hair done, and my hairdresser that I'd done a trial with had gotten the flu. They had to modify my original hair because the new hairdresser wasn't sure how to get the look we had decided on before. By the time I got back up to the Inn at Stonecliffe, I was so stressed out. Thankfully, Andrejka was there when I got back and immediately started to take action getting all the pre-wedding photos, helping with the boutonnieres, and just generally helping anybody with anything that needed to get done before the ceremony, so I didn't have to stress about it. She was basically invisible during the wedding, and she was super helpful in keeping us on schedule so that we could get all the pictures we wanted. We rode a tandem bike from the Stonecliffe to Downtown Mackinac Island, and Andrejka rode her bike ahead of us having us stop at several very nice places to take pictures. She was super helpful in navigating the Island since we wanted a nice variety of locations. I couldn't be happier with the results. I got so many great pictures. Get your photos done by Andrejka. She makes everything go so much more smoothly, and her photography is amazing.

goes above and beyond what you would expect from a photographer to make the day even more magical. Everything is seamless from when she starts to when she is done, the day rolls effortlessly. She got our pictures back to us very quickly and the online website where she shares the pictures is so user-friendly! I could not recommend Andrejka Photography enough!!

with her, but unfortunately couldn't afford to hire her on our college-student-budget. A couple of years later we'd downsized our wedding and changed the day to a Monday, so I reached out to her again just to see if we could make it work. For some reason, she remembered us, and was willing to accommodate our budget to capture our big day. In addition to being our photographer, she was our carriage ride director, my dress floofer, veil straightener, tour guide, and a whole mess of other things that all somehow just blended together to make everything go far more smoothly than I had any right to have. She was an incredible light and presence on what can be a very stressful day (not for us - between Andrejka and Marty at Grand Hotel, we didn't have a care in the world!), and I cannot thank her enough for sharing her tips and expertise with us. Andrejka has an aura that just projects joy, and it's truly something that needs to be experienced. Obviously, in addition to being a wonderful human, Andrejka is also an unparalled photographer. I don't want to say much here because her photos speak for themselves (as they should - they're why you're hiring her!), but her style is absolutely stunning. We told her what we loved about Mackinac Island, and she captured all of those things for us, in addition to the ridiculous list of formal pictures we requested. When I first started looking for a photographer, I noticed that a lot of their styles make the photos immediately look dated and forced. That's absolutely not a concern with Andrejka; she's unspeakably talented at both candid and posed photos. If you're looking for an award-winning photographer who you actually want to spend the day with, Andrejka's your girl. I cannot wait to find excuses to go back and work with her again, and again, and again.

is definitely the one to pick for any occasion! Leah, her assistant, was also so lovely to work with. Their kindnesses will not be forgotten. The experience with them was simply wonderful.

all the photos we asked for. We had so much fun with her and she captured so many awesome moments that I missed during the day. WE LOVE the final photos. They are beautiful! Hoping to book her again for family photos this holiday season! Thank you Andrejka!

year later we were fortunate enough to have Andrejka as our photographer for our wedding on Mackinac Island. We would strongly recommend Andrejka to anyone looking for a photographer - not only are our photographs amazing, Andrejka went above and beyond assisting throughout the day, from before our ceremony all the way into our reception, she was a key factor in our wedding day going perfectly. We can't recommend her enough and we know you will feel the same way if you choose to work with Andrejka!

photos, stuck to the timeline, and made the day easy and stress-free. I would definitely recommend Andrejka!

shots. Andrejka made sure that her vision and special shots were included and we had an extensive meeting before the wedding to go through shots. She has so many great contacts and great vision at the Grand Hotel.

o glad that we did. Our wedding day was lovely and a ton of fun and Andrejka fit right in like she was a member of the bridal party. She was such a fun abd easy person to have with us all day and we loved the photographs. Thanks so much Andrejka for capturing our day! Looking forward to having you photograph our new little one someday soon!

to the rain (which I was panicking about), she rode around on a bike with a poncho and got the most incredible photos! She had wonderful ideas and a great eye for everything. She even got down on the dirty ground and bustled my dress for me! I truly cannot express the gratitude and appreciation I feel for her. She went completely above and beyond to make our day beyond believable and I have incredible photos that I will cherish forever. Thank you Andrejka!!!!

other ways from fixing my dress to helping us cut the cake! We could not be happier with the choice of having Andrejka be part of our wedding!!

d accommodate our request. During the wedding day itself, we were very impressed at how they worked around the challenge of rain so our pictures still turned out amazing! Both Andrejka and her assistant were so nice to work with and made us feel totally comfortable while they were taking pictures. I also loved that they suggested unique shots, that was exactly what I was looking for in a photographer. I would highly recommend Andrejka to anyone!

ad excellent ideas of places where we could take pictures outside while staying dry. Andrejka and Mary B. were so pleasant and very flexible with where we wanted to take pictures. Also, they were very creative with suggesting certain locations for pictures, for example: a coffee shop. It’s somewhere I would never have thought of, but it had a beautiful vintage looking love seat with a nice painting hanging above, and that combined with the elegant way she posed us lead to some of my favorite pictures. Andrejka has such an intimate knowledge of the island and a creative eye for photography. She knows all of the best spots on the island and can ride a bike next to your carriage to take pictures. It doesn’t get much better than that. They say the biggest thing bride’s regret is not getting a photographer/a good photographer- With Andrejka photography you will never have to worry about that! She will capture every moment of your special day so you will have pictures and memories that last a lifetime.

aphy, what was important to us about the day that needed to be captured, as well as get a handle on family dynamics, who's who, who doesn't get along, etc you get the idea. (bride tip- be honest, if you have an in-law, family member or bridesmaid that is hard to deal with, you will help everyone by telling your photographer up front) This type of prework pays off. Thank you Andrejka. Fast Forward to the Wedding Day, and Andrejka arrived, fit right in with everyone, and did her thing, we barely knew she was there, and I'm the type of person that freezes up when my photo being taken on a normal day, but Andrejka moves stealthily and the end result is amazing-we had so much fun with her. Wedding Day: Andrejka met us at our hotel on a pretty crappy Chicago day, cold, windy and rainy, not the most ideal wedding weather especially for bridal party photos. Wow did she turn it up. She scouted around the hotel and found the prettiest spots for us to get some photos, she really did her best to make the best out of the weather we were dealing with. Her photographic perspective is amazing, she does it all, candid’s, posed(as required by our parents). She can handle a crowd like no one else, she got our family photos done in record time and they were fabulous. I think I'll call Andrejka the "Wedding whisperer"! . Personality-wise, she brought out the best in our wedding party and wedding guests. I’ll end with this, when we got engaged, I spent lots of time on wedding websites, lingering over the fabulous wedding photos people had, and hoping my wedding could be captured as beautifully. Well Andrejka captured it beautifully and beyond words and I can’t say enough great things about her work, her personality, her ability to bring out the best in everyone and the fun in all those around her. My heart is full when I look at our wedding photographs and I think of Andrejka and the wonderful way she captured who we are as a couple and our day. You’ll be as thrilled as we were if you are lucky enough to have Andrejka capturing your day.

tos, Andrejka is beyond talented. She has an eye for detail and captures the magic in each moment. She makes you feel at ease and natural while shooting, no uncomfortable posing. We are beyond thrilled with our photos and will cherish them for years to come. I would highly recommend her services for weddings and portraits!

dding photographer, Andrejka! She was the perfect balance of professionalism and effervescence. I hear some photographers are pushy, but she made us feel relax and the experience fun even though both my husband and I feel awkward having our pictures taken. Also her photos are very imaginative, so you feel like you not looking at the same image over and over again. The quality of the photos are also excellent. The biggest compliant I hear from other brides is that their photos didn't turn out how they hoped especially since photography tends to be very expensive. We didn't feel that way at all. We received beautiful photos from our memorable day and do not regret it a bit. I would recommend Andrejka to anyone!

n be very stiff in front of the camera and she made him feel relaxed and at ease. I felt like she really captured the emotions of the day.
