Something spoke to me when I found Audrey’s website – I needed a consult with this photographer. Her editing style was gorgeous, she specializes in weddings AND reading about her made me feel like she would fit perfectly into my quirky group of... friends. This would become key throughout the process.
We scheduled the consultation via video chat and within two minutes we fell in love with Audrey! I just loved her quirkiness, authenticity and passion. We decided to book her right away. The package we chose got us 7 hours of wedding day photographing with 2 photographers, an engagement shoot, access to all our photos and a custom phone app for ease of access.
When we did our engagement shoot with Audrey, we felt immediately comfortable – even my wife, who doesn’t like the feeling she gets when being watched and photographed. We also felt accepted warmly and without hesitation for being a lesbian couple. Audrey knew exactly where, how, and when to pose us vs. just capturing us naturally. She asked us if there was anything specific we wanted photographed and rolled with our suggestions as well. She laughed with us, heard us out and made us feel like we were just hanging out with one of our friends – SERIOUSLY. You cannot ask for a better person to be your go-to photographer.
In preparation for the wedding, Audrey has an online system where I could fill out the questionnaires for her to get to know us as a couple a little better and give background on our bridal party, family dynamics, specific poses, or things I wanted captured, etc.
On our wedding day, she made sure to come greet us as we all got ready, introduced us to her co-photographer, asked if we needed anything and gave us a quick run down of what to expect. I felt like one of our friends had just arrived and was so excited to see her.
Audrey has this graceful way of being everywhere but no where at the same time; I knew she was around, of course, but she captured meaningful moments that I didn’t even know she had been there for! She somehow blends in with the hullaballoo happening but got clear shots of amazing moments that I didn’t get to see because it’s impossible to see everything. She is your extra set of eyes for what happened during times when I was busy greeting someone else or trying to get in a bite between hugs.
Oh, and the posed bridal party/family photos? They are stunning as well and she was so quick to get down the list of all the poses and people arrangements that we talked about, while also keeping track of the time and other places we had to go to next.
Waiting is the worst part, right? Well Audrey emailed us a sneak peak of some of our photos within just a few days of our wedding and that held us (and friends and family) over for a few more weeks. Despite having signed a contract with a particular waiting period, Audrey sent us our full album much faster than expected! Not only that, but she surprised us and our parents with gifts in the mail that came just before those photos were released and it was just so thoughtful.
I literally cannot say enough good things about Audrey. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone that will listen to me! Don’t let the price of professional photography packages scare you, because it almost scared me, and I am beyond thankful that I did the research to lead me to Audrey. She is such a warm, welcoming person and her skills are worth EVERY penny! We love you, Audrey!
