About This Vendor

Creating Art About Who You Are and Who you Love

Galaxie Andrews is a global luxury wedding photographer based in Phoenix, AZ. Raised in France by an American father and French mother, Galaxie quickly learned to become a citizen of the world. When she is not sitting window seat, flying to her next destination wedding, or handwriting postcards to her couples with her cat Stevie on her lap, Galaxie works as the program director of the growing nonprofit organization she co-founded and developed over the last decade, changing thousands of lives within her local community. Galaxie understands that this is not about “a wedding” but an expression of who you are and who you want to be in your future life, that starts today. Thoughtful in her pursuit of creating compelling work, Galaxie’s superpower is her ability to see beauty in your subtle moments. She knows how to highlight and convey the intent, energy and heart you have poured into every detail - which you have collected for months, sometimes years - and that the magic lies in bringing it all together into a multi-sensory event to be preserved and shared with your loved ones. Through her photography, Galaxie elevates the spirit of your celebration and transforms the echo of your fleeting dream day into story-driven images that will increase in emotional value over time. Galaxie sees her role on this Earth as so much more than a photographer - she is a fervent observer and listener, a connection artist, creative director… She believes a photograph has the power to spark deeper thinking and feeling. Her purpose lies in showing you, through her work, that your personal values, natural gestures, and expressions can be captured purposefully and transformed into art; and it is the unique combination of these qualities that sets her apart in the industry, bringing her countless accolades from clients across the globe. From lighting and timeline logistics to the delivery of your image gallery, Galaxie guides you through your wedding photography journey with personal attention, ease, and expertise, allowing you to enjoy the experience knowing every detail - large and small - is considered. Her time and focus are allocated to a select number of events per year so that she can fully invest in each creative collaboration.

Galaxie is an artist, both passionate and meticulous in her approach. This became evident the moment we hired her. She first sent us handwritten notes. She then sent us pictures of her garden. Later, she sent us a questionnaire in which my (the...

n) fiancé—Misselle—and I had the opportunity to answer questions about each other. Leading up to our engagement photo session, we were a bit nervous. (We didn’t know what to expect.) But when the session started, Galaxie quickly eased our nerves by prompting us with our questionnaire answers. She brought us back to the present moment and began capturing our raw affection for each other, making sure not to overlook any of the surrounding details. Galaxie led the way from beginning to end, and the experience was more enjoyable and seamless than we could have imagined. As our wedding date neared, Galaxie carefully studied our venue. She, and her very capable assistant, surveyed the area. Galaxie took note of the natural light and found the ideal locations for pictures. The day of our wedding, Galaxie captured virtually every decisive moment—and a handful of spontaneous ones too! From when Misselle put on her dress and shoes to when I fixed my bow tie and cufflinks to when we exchanged an “I do,” Galaxie was there to encapsulate the moment. When the ceremony ended, she led to us to several picture perfect spots. Galaxie accompanied us throughout the rest of the night—not too far away, yet not too close. Galaxie rhythmically blended into the crowd and collected a treasure trove of memories for which we are beyond grateful.

instantly to the moment. I love every single photo she sent and I will treasure them for the rest of my life. Beyond her skill as a photographer, Galaxie is a true professional who is dedicated to her couples. Before our wedding it was extremely clear to me that she does everything with intention and is a meticulous planner— which I really appreciated. She took the time to get to know my husband and I as people and it’s clearly reflected in our engagement and wedding photos. We felt so comfortable around her— it felt like I was hanging out with a friend that I’ve known for a very long time. She exudes positivity and calmness, which was so appreciated on wedding day. When she walked into the bridal suite on wedding day, I felt instantly relaxed just by seeing her and knowing she was going to nail her part. That feeling is priceless. If I could do my wedding over, I would hire her again in a heartbeat. No hesitation.

The only thing I was sad about after getting married was that she didn’t do families. BUT now she does! My family and friends are probably sick of hearing how amazing I think she is. She truly loves what she does and loves each one of her clients. Honestly, I HATE getting pictures taken of myself and Galaxie has a natural ability to make you feel comfortable and beautiful. She has now taken my family pictures as well and they are hands down the most beautiful pictures I have seen. 100 stars.

l of passion, and enjoyment for what they do. Galaxie Andrews is EVERYTHING we were hoping for in an artist, but also in a person! She is incredibly kind and compassionate. She expressed interest in meeting us prior to the session or connecting over the phone to get to know us, whichever worked best for us. We had several phone conversations and completed questionnaires prior to our “Meaningful Portrait Session”, that were used to draft activities she incorporated during the shoot which helped us relax and have fun! I understand that selecting the photographer for your engagement and wedding day is a huge decision and can be nerve-racking, but I have 100% confidence that we made the BEST decision with Galaxie. We feel honored and incredibly fortunate that she agreed to include us in her artistic process, taking our “Meaningful Portraits” and can we can hardly wait to see what she produces at our wedding. Working with Galaxie, has been the most joyful and incredible part of our wedding planning process! We would love to continue working with her following our wedding, to capture the lovely milestones throughout our married life.

We knew from day one that we wanted to share our day with Galaxie. What we saw in her portfolio was magic, but aside from her incredible talent and the sheer beauty of her work, her positive energy was so clear to us, even over the phone. She ...

is an inspiration and brought an indescribable ray of light to our wedding day, and throughout the process. We were not looking forward to the whole idea of being photographed and having all eyes on us during this day. In reflecting on our wedding day, the moments I remember laughing hardest were those intimate moments we spent before the ceremony taking photos with Brandon and Galaxie. This session was such special time for us and I cannot imagine it feeling this meaningful without them there. They understood, and were aligned with, our desire to focus on each other and on what mattered that day, and carved a special place for everything we valued. Galaxie’s smile, warmth, authenticity, gentleness, and true kindness are something we are still marveling at. My husband has not stopped raving about Brandon, wishing he could adopt him into the groomsmen circle. It didn’t occur to me that this comfort and sheer joy we shared would translate into photographs that captured the essence of the day. They speak for themselves and are truly magical. There are logistics involved, of course, and it wouldn’t be fair to leave out the fact that Galaxie and Brandon took care of everything with seamless, smooth coordination. Everything ran like clockwork, with a relaxed ease. Not to mention that we got out final photos the week after the wedding. Days after! This recommendation is not an easy one to write, as words fall short to describe our sheer appreciation for Galaxie and Brandon. We are so grateful they could share our day with us and the photographs are a beyond beautiful trace of the magic they created around us. Thank you, thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.
