Andrew was the absolute best photographer for our wedding! It was so nice getting to know him at our complimentary engagement photo shoot and was a great suggestion too to help us act as natural as possible in front of the camera on our wedding day. Andrew certainly has an eye for photography capturing such wholesome, in-the-moment experiences rather than staging the photos. His work speaks for itself, and we couldn’t be happier with the results and are grateful to have the opportunity to have met and worked with Andrew! Would recommend to anyone getting married in upstate NY!
There are not enough words to express how grateful we are to Andrew for being apart of our wedding experience. We knew Andrew was incredible after our first phone call, and again after our engagement shoot, and when it came to our wedding day, we truly felt like we had the dream team on our side to help capture our day. We want all of our friends and family to start having weddings, babies, or to just get photographed walking down the street, so we have an excuse to recommend Andrew as much as we can.
Andrew’s photography is amazing - we could not be happier with how our engagement and wedding photos turned out. Between the pictures we posed for, and the pictures we had no idea were being taken, every shot was stunning, and captured more magic than we every thought possible. More than that, Andrew’s care and passion for his work, and the laughter and ease he brought to our wedding day, were worth more to us than we could put into words. Knowing we had a partner in our photographer, and someone who was as excited about capturing out wedding as we were, meant everything to us - we cannot recommend Andrew and his team enough.
Working with Andrew was such an incredible experience and we cannot recommend him enough. When we had to postpone our larger wedding we decided to do a very small elopement in the meanwhile and treat ourselves to photos and Andrew was the PERFECT choice!
From the moment we first spoke with Andrew we knew he was wonderful, and we now have the photos to prove it! We did our small elopement on a property that we had never been to and had only decided on the spot we'd get married that morning, so when Andrew arrived he was really thrown into unknown territory - and he knocked it out of the park.
He has a kind, calming presence and an incredible talent and we could not be happier with the way that he captured our special day. Working with Andrew was the fist time either of us had been photographed professionally so we had absolutely no idea what to do and Andrew just made us feel completely comfortable and at ease. His guidance and encouragement was so helpful and comforting to us photoshoot newbies and allowed us to truly shake off the nerves and be ourselves, which is exactly what we see when we look back on our amazing album. The photos he captured of us and of our group are better and more special than we could have ever hoped for.
Also one big thing we have learned from working with 2 amazing photographers for our 2 weddings is just to be up for ANYTHING. Andrew clearly has a wonderful creative eye and one of my absolute favorite series of photos were ones that required us to go several feet into an overgrown moist field that definitely had some critters living in it, and I have ZERO regrets. Never say no to on-the-spot ideas!
We feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with Andrew and because of him we will be able to forever look back and cherish the intimate memories we made that day with each other and our small elopement group. Andrew is an incredible person and an incredibly talented photographer, hire him now!!
Having Andrew take our wedding photos was such an awesome experience. Ahead of our big day, he was really communicative and courteous. On the day itself, he was somehow both laid back and efficient at the same time—we got in all the shots we wanted (and more!), without feeling rushed. He is also really great at "reading the room" and taking pictures in a way that gets the shots, but without getting in the way of any of the moments at all. And in addition to setting us up for some really natural, lovely pictures in a range of unexpected spots (a white fence, a side of a building), which speaks to the way he looks at spaces not for the most obvious views but for more organic and elegant compositional moments, he also took care to capture tiny details that might otherwise go unnoticed. And, he also brought an "all hands on deck" attitude to the whole day, helping to fix little details all along the way, whether it was smoothing out a centerpiece or coordinating timing with our maître d'. All in all, we felt we were in really good hands, and we will cherish these pictures forever.
He saved us from having to use our phones for pictures! A week before our ceremony our photographer had to cancel. Andrew SAVED us! He was so great to work with and especially considering how little time he had to get to know us. We love our photos so much and thank you again!
We are so extremely lucky that we were able to have Andrew as our photographer. We had a great experience working with Andrew and he made us feel so relaxed. He has such a talent for creating cool shots and it really shows in his work! Our family and friends are so amazed at how beautiful our pictures came out. We are also grateful that he took so many throughout the day and totally captured the vibe so that we can relive it every time we look through the album (which we do almost every day lol)! Thanks to Andrew, he is the BEST!
We had a fantastic experience working with Andrew for our small elopement wedding ceremony in upstate New York. We found him online and loved the natural, intimate style of his photos. He was very responsive, gave great candid advice on everything from how to structure the day to what time would be best for photos, and he has a very easygoing personality which suited us perfectly. The photos from our event were stunning and exactly the aesthetic and style we were hoping for. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!
Andrew is the best!!!! We had the privilege of him photographing our wedding, alongside his equally talented wife, Nicole of Nicole Nero Studio! His photographs are magnificent and reflect not only his refined skill and technique, but also his passion for the work. Our wedding was an intimate gathering of our closest family and friends, and Andrew (and Nicole) fit in seamlessly. While Nicole captured our private exchange of vows before the ceremony, Andrew was getting exquisite shots of our venue and precious moments of our family and friends. My husband and I have spent hours reliving that day through the photos, and we remain in awe of how beautifully documented our wedding was. The feedback from EVERYONE is unanimous- these pictures belong in some kind of high-art photography magazine! Above all, Andrew is professional, organized, creative, and most importantly, emits this amazing, warm vibe that everyone needs for comfort on their wedding day. Andrew Franciosa Studio is an absolute treasure and his work is exquisitely meaningful and artistic. We cannot recommend him (and his wife) more highly - no better duo exists!
We knew we wanted to work with Andrew from the second we saw his photos. The contrast alone is stunningly beautiful…and every image looks like it came from the pages of a magazine. Andrew was so attentive to detail and responsive to every little question from the very first phone call. He is beyond otherworldly in his ability to capture the most intimate moments in a way that makes you feel like you’re reliving them over and over again every time you look at them. Not only are his photography skills impeccable, but he’s also an amazing and hilarious person to work with. Everything about our wedding day felt so natural and relaxed. Nothing felt posed or forced. Andrew and his team were so kind to all of our guests and our bridal party had a great time shooting before the ceremony and reception began. He was a champ when it came to dealing with the craziness of our families and our day (thank you for putting up with all of us, haha). We are forever grateful to have all of these special moments captured forever. Andrew truly brought our fairytale to life through his photos. It meant the world to us to have someone like Andrew on our team – we could not have dreamed of working with a better photographer. If you’re still searching, do yourself a favor and don’t think twice about working with Andrew. You will not regret it! I cannot wait to see some of these bad boys blown up on the walls of our home! Thank you so much for everything Andrew! Sending our love – Ash & Rob xox
Andrew was truly perfect as our wedding photographer. Leading into the wedding, he was organized, professional, and communicative - taking away any stress from this portion of our planning. When he arrived at the venue, I was immediately at ease as he was just a pleasure to be around. He remained calm, friendly, and relaxed throughout the wedding, all while never missing a beat. He was able to capture all the important moments without ever feeling obtrusive. We heard similar, positive comments from our guests on how great our photographer was! He was flexible and accommodating in capturing us throughout the lakefront camp we were at, including two very bumpy and wet boat rides. On top of his wonderful demeanor and working style, Andrew's photographs are stellar. Each photo captured the genuine joy and happiness of the day, never feeling staged or unnatural for us. We are beyond happy with how the photos turned out, they are beautiful. Thank you, Andrew! We really appreciate you and hope to work with you again in the future.
Thank you Andrew for such inspiring and beautiful photos! Your attention to detail is on every image. We will definitely be recommending you to everyone that is looking for an exceptional and unique work.
Andrew is absolutely fantastic to work with. On top of having a great eye, he is also very organized, easy to work with and makes you feel like you've known each other forever. Not only were my husband and I thrilled with how our photos came out from our wedding, but once our guests saw the photos, they couldn't stop talking about how beautiful everything came out. Andrew is definitely the best of the best!
Booking a photographer was one of the first priorities when we started wedding planning and we reviewed a lot before we decided on Andrew. Choosing Andrew as our photographer was one of the best wedding planning decisions we could have made! Obviously his work is incredible, he shoots in a way that truly captures the emotions and vibe of each moment, rather than a bunch of posed photos. Finding someone with a great personality was important to us and we found this in Andrew! He remained calm, relaxed, reassuring, and fun during our entire wedding. Being able to capture the photos we wanted without rushing us, or being bossy is no small feat, but Andrew and his second shooter did it perfectly. Communicating with Andrew leading up to the wedding was so easy. He was super responsive to emails and always available for questions. For our engagement shoot, he hiked up a mountain with us (a 5 mile hike!) and we had a blast with him! He is able to give direction in a way that feels natural, not forced, and we never felt uncomfortable or awkward (which is something I have heard others feel during engagement or wedding photos). Our wedding photos came out beautiful and we will treasure those memories forever thanks to Andrew!
We were so lucky to have worked with Andrew. We absolutely love our photos which are beyond all expectation. Not only is Andrew a true professional and artist, but he made the process seamless from start to finish. My husband and I were nervous for the day, but Andrew made us feel completely comfortable like one of our friends. Our friends and family rave about the beautiful photography which I am so happy to be able to share with them. Andrew also designed our album and it was perfect for us, although he was always available if we had questions or requests. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and I can' t imagine working with anyone else.
I can't recommend Andrew Franciosa enough. Andrew and his assistant Ali were phenomenal. Made us feel very comfortable through the usually awkward process of posing for pictures, and were generally very fun people to be around. Most importantly, the pictures turned out amazing! I can't think of anything I would change. I'm grateful to have had them photograph my wedding.
I found Andrew online while searching for photographers in upstate NY. His photos spoke to me because of the mix of artistic/atmospheric and beautiful moments. Once we spoke on the phone I knew he was the right photographer for us- laid back while professional with no ego. Day of he kept cool, kept us cool and captured more awesome photos than we could have ever imagined. My husband and I are so happy with the photos that we are hiring him to come to our house to do some post-wedding relaxed shots with us and our dogs. Highly recommend working with Andrew!
Andrew was recommended to us by Katie O’ a friend of ours who is also a wedding planner. We are so happy she suggested him as a new up in coming photographer. Andrew met with us and his calm and cool personality helped us feel comfortable. Many other photographers we met had larger than life personalities but we wanted someone who would steer our day without being loud and forceful. Andrew did just that. When a summer thunderstorm broke out while we were attempting our first look outside they got me inside safe and sound. They quickly came up with various options of where we could do our first look while making sure it would still be special, beautiful and still keeping us on our timeline. Family photos were great as they went down the list we provided to make sure everyone was included. Then we were off to take the more artistic bridal party and bride/groom photos. Andrew took us around downtown Troy into parking lots, alleyways etc. He came across such unique backgrounds that the mix of hard brick and soft green trees looked great. We cannot speak to how professional and amazing Andrew was. Within a few days he had a blog up of some teaser photos and within two weeks all our photos were available online for us to download. The photos breathe emotion! Andrew is a true artist and we would highly recommend him! Wedding was 8/15/15 at Rev Hall in Troy, NY
Andrew and his associate photographer Nicole were absolutely perfect. He was quick to respond throughout the entire planning process and answered every single one of my (millions of) questions promptly and honestly. My family was very impressed with his calm yet assertive way of arranging multiple people in a quick manner, in the best light. We were right on our very tight schedule all day because he and Nicole got all the shots quickly and efficiently. As we click through all the pictures from that day we feel like we are there again, because all the feelings were perfectly captured. A bonus of our photos is that many guest reactions are caught in the background, which is no easy feat but one we requested. Andrew is a true artist and we know his career will bloom exponentially.
We hired Andrew to shoot our wedding through a few friend recommendations and seeing his previous work. He met with us far in advance, told us what we would expect and was really open to our ideas/expectations as well. On the day of, he was professional, calm and positive. He was really organized about wrangling my giant family as well, a part of the photography I was worried about going smoothly!
Andrew has a great eye, great gear and really knows what he's doing. The photos are absolutely gorgeous, tasteful and modern. My husband and I could not be happier. It was a great experience and I would work with him again in a heartbeat and recommend him to anyone in the area.
One of the best choices we made for our big day! We were referred to Andrew by a friend of ours who absolutely raved about his work. We had met with a number of other photographers, but hadn't quite found 'the one'. However, after seeing Andrew's photos and being able to chat with him, we knew that he was going to be the perfect fit for our day. The planning process was quick and easy, chatting via email was simple, and he offered ideas and made suggestions about that I'm not sure we would have realized on our own! Our wedding day arrived and Andrew was just awesome; I cannot say this enough! He was polite, professional, and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. He was great to work with and when we got our photos back, we were absolutely thrilled; they were beautiful and really showed off who we are as a couple, which is just what we'd hoped for. Thank you Andrew for being so great to work with and for capturing our story so well, we will treasure our photos for years to come!
Andrew was a really great photographer. His took the greatest pictures and a lot of my guests thought he was hilarious.
Finding a photographer seemed to be the hardest part of wedding planning. Andrew did a great job with our photos and was one of the only photographers we encountered that didn't charge an exorbitant amount.
