You won't regret picking Andre as your photographer. He and his team were amazingly awesome and fun to work with. To be honest, I wasn't sure what to look for when choosing our photographer for our engagement and wedding photos but I'm glad we chose Andre for the job. Andre is a perfectionist and definitely goes the extra mile to capture the moment. I was a bit nervous about taking our engagement picture because I didn't know what to expect but Andre made the day fun. Andre has the vision for capturing unique moments as long as you trust him and and are willing to take risks too. I loved how our photos came out at night with the use of his different lighting techniques. By the time our wedding ceremony and reception came around, we knew what to expect and felt at ease while working with Andre and his awesome team. It has been great working with Andre for the past several months. Photos are available for proofing online shortly after the photo shoot. Andre also goes out of his way to make things happen for you. Everything is done thoughtfully and carefully. I especially love how he delivers beautifully wrapped packages of our photos/dvds in keepsake boxes and the way our photo album came out in the end. Thank you Andre for everything! :) read more

My friend was getting married and needed a photographer. She decided to try Andre and was SO glad she did! She met up with him after shooting him an email and they talked about what sort of package she wanted. She wanted to be extra and opted to include videography since Andre had drone lol. After paying a deposit, him and his team showed up to the wedding and shot for the whole day--afterwards he had the photos and video ready for her in like 2 weeks! Apparently he does corporate events too so if my boss needs someone for photos I'll definitely recommend him~ Book with Andre--he's one of the nicest guys you will ever meet, he gives you your photos fast, and his stuff is legit. read more

Here is my update since our wedding on 9/28/2013 - We weren't able to have Andre at our wedding as our photographer but he sent the best of his team! Alice was GREAT - she was not only a photographer for the day, but almost my 2nd wedding planner who helped remind me where I needed to be, and fixed my hair, and so on... The rest of the team - Raf & Lucas - were fun and sweet as well :) We have so many favorite pictures and I was so excited to share them with our friends and family. The ICING on the cake was James, our videographer also provided by Andre.. OMG. OUR VIDEO. IS. AMAZING. We've gotten so many compliments on it! Seriously, I cannot believe that we have such an amazing video to relive the day. https://vimeo.com/78931799 Make sure to go with Andre for photos AND video! One tip to all brides in regards to photography: - Make sure to tell the phographer every shot you want - I love my photos, but I realized afterwards that I wish I had more photos of the little details in our wedding - all the crafts and stuff that I spent hours making. My husband and I also realized that while we had beautiful artistic shots of us alone together, we didn't have any traditional photos - straight forward facing photos. We wanted to print one for his grandma and we realized that we didn't have one with both our faces looking forward lol. Just a thought! read more

I highly recommend Andre to anyone who is looking for a very skillful and professional photographer whose prices are down to earth and quality is up in the sky. Very happy to have my family memories captured in a very natural and realistic way where colors just make you want to look at the pictures all the time. Would definitely work with him over and over again. Thank you Andre and keep up doing your amazing work! read more

Andre was great!!! He was super responsive and really accommodating even though we booked late with him for our chinese wedding. He spent all day with us, traveled to a few venues and was super positive the whole time. We wholeheartedly recommend him for any major event! read more

Andre was incredibly helpful, patient, and fun to work with. If you've never had a photo shoot in your life and let alone engagement photos, realize that you need to pull off looking lovey dovey in front of a camera man and maybe an assistant. The idea might sound a bit awkward, but Andre is so fun and personable that you forget that you're even taking photos. We had our engagement photo shoot in our hometown of San Jose. San Jose isn't known for having the best scenery, but the places we did take pictures looked like we were in a DREAM world. I don't know how he did it, but he was able to capture us in our world, but make it and us look AWESOME. You honestly can't ask for more than that, especially when it comes to your engagement/wedding photos. As for the church photos, I was surprised that they came out clear and bright although the church lighting was a bit dim, and the church policy was no flash photography. Tip: Make sure you enjoy your time taking photos. The fun and happiness will just shine through naturally, and if it doesn't, Andre will make it happen. :) read more

This is my 100th review. I wanted to save it especially for Andre. That's how highly I think of him. How or where do I start with Andre...No matter how you call it, Andre is the real deal! I'm extremely happy with my photos. He's very adventurous and you will get one of a kind photos with Andre. Andre is super easy to get along with and to talk to. It seem like whatever ideas we had for our photos he would take it and run with it. He also goes out of his way to make things happen for you... like showing up at your house in the middle of the night to give you your photos. His teammates were funny and professional to work with too. I get the feeling like we own every place we go to take pictures because we were the center of attention at all times. I can go on and on about Andre but to in the end it'll just be the same outcome. The final verdict, I would recommend Andre to anyone. Not only were his photos top notch, his personality made things pleasant and comfortable throughout the whole experience. If you get a chance, ask him to dance at your wedding too, he's a great dancer! :). read more

Andre is an amazing photographer!! I can't even express how happy we are with the beautiful pictures and videos he did. My daughters wedding was captured from every angle and not one moment was missed. He was great with the guests and he put so much effort into making this day special. I highly recommend Andre, you definitely won't be disappointed!! read more

Andre and his team are amazing. They are a lot of fun and really do take amazing photos. We had our engagement shoot at SJSU and Vasona Park. Our wedding was at The Mountain Winery. Andre knew exactly where to take the best photos in all 3 locations. He has given me a great experience from our first intro meeting to the very end. He helps you to pose, if you want a specific shot he will do it for you and his candid shots are amazing. You will love your photos and Andre :) Thank you Andre! read more

What can I say, Andre and his team are amazing. Best people to work with. Photography is probably the most important vendor that needs to be booked for any wedding. It's probably one of the only things you have to remember the day by. Andre will help you capture all the candid moments, and posed moments. The consultation with Andre was very nice. He is very professional, and will lay it all out on the table. You will know what to expect of him, and of course he would work with you to get what you want from the wedding. We also had our engagement photos by Andre. He was very creative and helped us pose for the shots. My husband and I are horrible at taking pictures. The photos turned out really nice though. Surprised that we could take a good picture. Day started off great, everyone arrived on time. They got right to work to get our "getting ready" photos. I so appreciated that no one was pushy about getting their shots in. I've worked with other photographers in other weddings, and man, they were so demanding, even rude at some points. Made me realize how calm and collected Andre and his team were. Everyone was so fun to work with throughout the day. Even helped relieve some of my stress because they were so fun. Once we got our photos and video, I couldn't believe how amazing his work was. It came beautifully packaged too, and at a timely manner. Don't hesitate to book Andre. =0) read more

So I have had the honor of working with Andre a number of times and each time he always tries to deliver the best service that he can. He's always fun to be around and always somehow makes everyone around him feel comfortable. He produces very high quality works of art and keeps things entertaining along the way. He's always trying to better himself and his work and it shows in his photos how much he cares about delivering high quality photos. read more

We hired Andre for engagement photo shoot and I'm extremely happy with the service. He helped us choose the right location, adjusted our poses and consulted on what to wear before the shoot. What caught our eyes was his confidence and experience in photography. He knows exactly what he is doing and it creates a comfortable and trusting environment. Receiving pictures on time and having all our special needs accommodated brought complete satisfaction to me and my fiancé. read more

I would highly recommend Andre and his team. He is very professional and in the same time very personal. He listens to what you want and gives the best professional opinion. I needed to make photos of my work ( I make custom cakes) and myself for my website. I am not used to be in front of the camera, but Andre made it very easy for me. And photos came out great and very natural. He also shoot the best photos of my cakes!!! If you are looking for wedding photographer or just a family pictures, Andre will do the best! read more

Andre made the extra effort for our wedding day photos and our engagement photos. His work is beautiful and caught all of our special moments that we didn't even know we wanted. He worked with our schedule and eased our worried minds with his laughter and jokes. My husband and I would highly recommend him for any of the special moments that you would like to capture for the rest of your life. We are grateful to have had him as our photographer. read more

I couldn't be happier with the service Andre provided. He was amazing! Polite, punctual and patient. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer for my special day. He is by far the best I've come across. Thank you so much! read more

Total Pros! The wedding was amazing and these guys were awesome! They brought along a nice team with all the right equipment to capture the moment perfectly :) read more

Andre did a great job taking photos of my family in a garden close to sunset. Toddlers and hyper-active 6-year-olds can be a great challenge to shoot. Andre was patient and creative to get them into nice poses, get their attention, and take natural-looking, genuine shoots. The setting sun also looked great. read more

Ben Crisman, eat your heart out. Seriously I'll be honest that I know NOTHING about photography and how to rate a picture, but I've had photography enthusiasts (whom one of which i may add that Ben Crisman is doing her wedding this coming May, 2011) give nothing but great compliments on the photoshoot Andre did for us. Amazing person with great personality, sense of humor. He really lets you pick where you want to go and can make almost any scene spectacular. He puts great competition into the professional wedding photography business no doubt. Great Job Andre. read more

omg, andre is an amazing photographer! he finds the most romantic and beautiful new scenery and the photos captures the best angles of your face. he did my sister's engagement, wedding, and baby shower. so much fun to work with, so sweet, and ALWAYS on time. you can't go wrong with andre. read more

Andre did an awesome job photographing our wedding. Our package included an engagement session, day of pictures, and a day of video. From the initial engagement session to the wedding day itself, Andre put us at ease and made the photo sessions fun and engaging. Working with him you can immediately tell he is a true professional with an incredible attention to detail. Needless to say we were very happy with the results - everyone who sees our wedding pictures & video comments on how well they came out. The video in particular gets a lot of comments from friends and family - the way it's edited, with music added and everything, it really has a professional feel to it. We were very happy with Andre's services and would definitely recommend his company to anyone looking for a quality photographer/videographer for their wedding. read more

Andre was my photographer for my engagement photo shoot. With a great sense of humor and professionalism, he made it a fun and relaxing day for the both of us. My fiance and I enjoyed every moment of it. I would highly recommend him to any couple that is in search of a photographer, whether it is for your wedding or engagement photo shoot. It is a great combination when you get amazing photos and a photographer with a sense of humor. :-) read more

I can't express enough thanks for the work that Andre did for me. He created visual content for my style and fashion design school, provided the best shoots for my portfolio, improved my Instagram pictures, developed my eye towards a better self expression through photography and all of these for a very affordable price. My success grew in minutes. I was very impressed and invited him to work with me in image consulting, fashion styling and editorial shooting. My clients couldn't be happier. Designers we worked with cried seeing the details of garments finally pop up on the pictures, videos of the fashion shows he produced showed the whole story and lots lots of details that are so important but not seen by every photographer. Andre is a treasure that I discovered in the photography world and definitely suggest his work to every creative person. He will feel your needs right away and make your dreams come true exactly the way you want it. He is a certified stylist and can help with the whole style and mood of the shoot. Highly recommend!!! read more
