I’m a natural extrovert, mama of three, and seasoned wedding photographer who believes in balancing structure with soul. I bring years of experience — and a heart that’s fully in it — to every celebration I photograph.
My approach is thoughtful, intuitive, and emotion-led. I’ll guide you through portraits with calm confidence, offer gentle direction when you need it, and create space for you to simply be — so you can soak up every joyful, unplanned, beautifully human moment.
Hi, I'm Andrea

Purposeful Storytelling, Wherever Love Takes You
As a military spouse, travel has been a constant in our lives — and it’s shaped the way I see the world, the way I raise my family, and the way I serve my couples. I’ve lived in Germany, Hawaii, and across the U.S., and each new home has brought fresh perspective, deep gratitude, and a love for celebrating beauty wherever it’s found.
That sense of movement and meaning is woven into how I photograph love stories. Whether you’re planning a destination wedding in Europe or a garden ceremony stateside, I bring the same level of care, emotional presence, and quiet professionalism — always adapting to the moment, the light, and your vision.
To ensure an elevated, fully personalized experience, I take on a limited number of weddings each year. This allows me to be fully present with each couple — devoting time, care, and creative attention to every celebration, every gallery, and every love story I have the honor of documenting.
Meet the Silva Family
We’re the Silvas — a military family of five who love traveling, laughing, and being just a little too competitive during game night. My husband Ryan is my best friend, biggest supporter, and the reason I believe so deeply in marriage. We’ve lived in Hawaii, Germany, and Georgia — but our roots (and hearts) will always be tied to California and our family there. Our kids, Nolan, Elena, and Ariana, keep life busy, fun, and full of joy… especially during our favorite time of year: Halloween and Christmas!

I cannot recommend Andrea enough as a photographer! She was our photographer for our engagement session and made my fiance and I feel super comfortable when we were nervous as we had never been photographed before! She was completely professional and was able to navigate us through each shot, photographing our special moment! She definitely has a heart of gold and an eye to capture true emotions through a picture!

Andrea is one of the best! She made our love story come to life through her work. She is one of the most sincere and sweetest people I have ever met. She calmed every nerve on my big day and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. We are so lucky to have found her to capture the biggest moment in our lives. You are lucky if you have the chance to work with her!

Andrea is amazing. She’s down to earth and makes you feel like she’s more than just your photographer. She’s a mom of 3 and you would never know it. Andrea puts her passion into her photography and all the work she does. I got married and she sent me sneak peek pictures just 2 days later! If you’re looking for someone who is down to earth, makes taking pictures fun, captures the most beautiful moments, also looking to gain a life long friend then Andrea is your girl.
They were more than I ever imagined.
Wow!! Andrea is an incredible photographer and we are so grateful that we found her. She is hands down the sweetest human ever and so extremely talented. My fiancée and I are absolutely in love with our photos. Thank you so much again Andrea for such a fun shoot and for the beautiful pics
