    Our Dream Wedding Photos

    Trust me when I say, Andy is without a doubt the guy you want photographing your wedding. From the moment I saw the first of his portfolio, I knew he was the perfect fit. He showed how valuable and professional he is from the very beginning. I forgot to confirm our initial meeting, but Andy made it work anyway, a sign of adaptability that we greatly appreciated. He is easy to talk to, makes you feel comfortable, and is very helpful in explaining options and posing. I am extremely picky about photos, so I looked at many portfolios before choosing to interview anyone, and Andy has the best eye I’ve seen by far. His photos are timeless, artsy, and just downright beautiful. You will get an amazing variation of photos: movement, perfect lighting, details, posing (with his help, thankfully!) and THE BEST candid photos. We had never been to a wedding like ours, but Andy gave great advice and really helped us visualize and plan our day. We got married shortly after Hurricane Helene so we couldn’t get to our original adventure session hike, but Andy had a whole album of back up hikes for us to choose from, all of which were just as stunning as our first choice. We had the best time spending our day with Andy, we truly could not be happier with our photos. We’re only a year out from our wedding and I’m already scheming for an anniversary shoot! Choose Andy, I promise you’ll never regret it!

    Worth Every Penny and More!

    Hiring Andy for my daughter’s mountain wedding (Bella and Kevin Phillips) was hands down the best decision we made. Yes, he’s not cheap — but after seeing the photos and watching how he guided us through the entire day, I honestly feel like he’s worth even more. We were lucky to afford him when we did, because his talent is on a level that won’t stay accessible to normal people for long. Andy has this chill, friendly personality that instantly puts everyone at ease. He knows the area and helped us plan the entire wedding from start to finish. He’s a true artist with an incredible eye for beauty and real, unscripted moments. Nothing staged, nothing forced — just genuine emotion and the kind of shots you can’t recreate even if you tried. Many of the shots he took, especially the veil shots, look like they belong in a magazine. Every single photo feels alive and full of heart. It’s honestly not possible to give him a high enough rating — five stars just isn’t enough.

    Elopement

    Hands down the best experience working with Andy. From the planning and timeline of the day, to the creativity with photos, lighting and location. His flexibility, passion, and energy throughout the entire day and evening was absolutely phenomenal. He helped capture our energy and day in ways we will never be able to truly explain as anything but breath-taking!

    Amazing Wedding and Adventure Photos

    From the moment we first reached out to MountainWed Photography, their communication style was efficient, professional, personalized and highly involved. The quality of their work was simply amazing. The photos Andy imagined and took of us were absolutely beautiful, with various camera setups to really capture the moment in multiple aspects. He kept the atmosphere light and loving throughout the day, and his pacing allowed us to enjoy every moment without feeling rushed. MountainWed Photography was a true partner in making our wedding day special, offering great suggestions for the wedding shoot and adventure shoot that resulted in stunning, one-of-a-kind images. We couldn't be happier with the service and value that Andy provided and we highly recommend him to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

    Fantastic experience

    I have worked alongside Andy (Mountain Wed) for many elopements and every time it has been amazing. He communicates clearly and quickly so we all know where we need to be and when. There are also clear options if things need to change plans mid-course. And the best part is how beautiful his photos are that you'll continue to look back on for years and years. Some of my favorite photos from elopements that I have been a part of are ones taken by Andy!
