Andrea Michelle Photography
Hi, I'm Andrea! Like… ON-Dreh-Uh, You can call me Dre/Drea if you want!
I'm a hybrid photographer in Arizona, Washington and anywhere you want me to be.
How I cater to offbeat weddings
Let’s just jump right in! I work with couples who want to feel seen, celebrated, and truly understood. The ones who might cry when no one’s watching, stim when the music swells, or doesn’t know what to do with their hands during posing *insert Will Ferrell meme*. I get it. I’ve been there. And I’ve built my whole business around holding space for that.
I’m not ONLY a photographer — I’m also a licensed therapist. So I can say, I know a thing or two about nervous system regulation especially on a wedding day. I’m a late-diagnosed ADHDer, a forever dog mom, a lover of adventure and spontaneity. But I am also someone who gets wildly excited about elegant tables capes, first-look tears, and a perfectly timed champagne pop. I’m here for it all: messy and refined, silly and sacred, deeply grounded and wildly in love.
I enjoy in photographing neurodivergent folks, LGBTQIA+ love stories, and all the beautifully diverse humans that make this world so damn special. My job isn’t just to take pretty pictures — it’s to witness the moments that matter and make sure you feel safe enough to show up fully. No forced poses, no weird gender roles, no pressure to “perform.” Just you, your love, and a whole lot of magic.
You deserve to have your love captured in a way that feels honest and joyful — sensory-friendly, identity-affirming, and full of heart. And that’s exactly what I’m here to do.
So if you’re looking for a photographer who will cry at your vows, respect your needs, and make damn sure you feel held the whole way through, let’s do this.
Oh I shouldn’t forget…I shoot Hybrid! meaning you will see me running around all day with a film loaded camera from the 80’s and of course my new and improved powerhouse Sony camera. My cleints get not only digital images but also the film photos!
Wow! Andrea is absolutely amazing and everything you could ask for in a wedding or event photographer. We booked her for our wedding reception, and from the first meeting we knew we were going to be in good hands. We had never hired a professional photographer before and Andrea was very organized and professional, but most importantly she put us at ease and made us feel comfortable and confident. Day of she captured everything we had hoped and more - so many special moments. We thought it would be awkward posing for the camera, but her direction was great and put all our anxieties to rest. Also, did I mention the photos are gorgeous? Because the photos are gorgeous! Book her now!!
