Who We Are
Andrea's Story
Andrea’s eight years of service as an Army combat medic have equipped her with the skills needed to stay calm under pressure and deliver excellent care, whether it’s in the field or planning a client’s big day. From a military career to photography and event planning, Andrea found her true calling behind the camera and in creating breathtaking event experiences. Inspired by capturing moments of joy with her two children and planning her own destination wedding, Andrea brings a personal touch and creative flair to every shoot and event she oversees. Originally from Ohio, Andrea now calls Louisiana home, where she fell in love with both her husband and the vibrant culture of the South.
