About

Andy here - hello! I'm a fine-art wedding photographer based in San Jose, California. It is my great pleasure to create timeless, authentic, and elegant images to document the beauty of a wedding day.

I use both film and digital images to tell a wedding story. I am captivated by the beauty of simplicity, and I love timeless portraits. To me, there are few things that top the combination of a radiant couple, beautiful light, and a medium format film camera -- I would love to photograph your wedding day.

Worth every penny.

Working with Andy was truly the highlight of our wedding and engagement process. His photos are stunning, timeless, and elegant, and we never felt uncomfortable or staged. He patiently worked with us to find the perfect outdoor location in San Francisco for our engagement session, and our family and friends are blown away with our wedding photos. We are already looking forward to family photos over the next few years so we can find another excuse to work with him. We couldn't have had a better experience and recommend Carretto Studio wholeheartedly!

Definitely Recommend Andy Carretto!

Andy did an amazing job as our wedding photographer. He is super easy to work with, finds the best angles when the sunlight changes, and is very good at making everyone feel comfortable when posing for so many photos. We always felt like we were in good hands when Andy was directing us- he's a total pro. Can't recommend Andy Carretto's services any higher!!

Wonderful photographer, wonderful experience!!!

Andy is a DREAM!! He came highly recommended and we could not be more thrilled to have worked with him for our wedding day. His photos are stunning--soft and romantic, with a natural feel, which was important to us. And equally importantly--he is an absolute pleasure to be around. He is so kind and lovely, and has a very calm demeanor that put everyone at ease as he captured our big day. We're so happy to have gotten to work with him and highly highly recommend his work!! Thanks Andy!!!

Andy did a fantastic job for our engagement photos and wedding photos. He went above and beyond with communicating, making our day less stressful, being personable, and taking excellent quality photos. The turn around for photos is quick too. I cannot believe how fast my husband and I got our photos back. Andy made us feel at ease and comfortable during the photo shoots. We had a pretty large bridal party and he did awesome with getting all the candid shots in along with group photos and individual photos. I came across Andy through other reviews and ratings and all were spot on. He is truly a talented photographer and I will be recommending him to all of my friends and family! Thank you, Andy, for making our day perfect and creating these photos that will forever be cherished!

Andy Carretto is the most AMAZING photographer there is around. We were so appreciative of all of the small and large gestures he did just to make my husband and I feel taken care of. From the time we first met with Andy, he did everything possible to make us feel at home. He went out of his way to meet with us before our first engagement session. We were so happy with how they turned our that we asked him to do our rehearsal dinner in addition to our wedding day. He even did my professional head shot for residency interviews! In addition to his skills and great eye for photography, Andy is the nicest and most genuine person you could ever meet. We had voiced that certain things were important to us on our special day, and he was so respectful and prioritized them without needing a second reminder. He is extremely organized and his work is beautiful. My husband and I are EXTREMELY camera shy, but somehow Andy captured the most wonderful pictures we could ever ask for. So glad we will have them for a lifetime. Pick Carretto Studio for your special day - you won't regret it! His work is bridal magazine worthy! Thanks for everything, Andy!

Gorgeous photos! I knew the moment I spoke with Andy that there was no need to search any longer for a photographer. He was easy to talk to and his style of photography was EXACTLY what we wanted. We all know planning a wedding is stressful. His easy-going personality made everything so easy. He is friendly and down to Earth, but at the same time very professional. Andy is simply the best. He does an amazing job making you feel comfortable as it is a very new experience for most. We love our photos and will treasure them for the rest of our lives (both engagement and wedding). We used one of our engagement photos for our guest book and so many of our guests commented on how gorgeous the picture was! It is of the atmost importance to get a great photographer and you cannot go wrong with choosing Andy. Thanks again for everything!

Every photo Andy took for our wedding was stunning because of his skill and talent. Clearly he's an amazing photographer but he also has a sense of calm during the chaos of a wedding day/photo session. His vibe is perfect and he gives great direction. We recently got our photos back and every picture took me back to the feeling of that moment. Andy and his assistant (that day it was Shannon) captured every moment and then some. I can't say enough great things about Carretto Studio and I know I'll be working with Andy again

Amazing!!! We loved every aspect of Carretto Studio!! The planning was super easy, we live out of town and Andy was able to work around our schedules for meeting and such. He suggested great places for our photos, both my husband and I got every style photo we wanted. When it came to our family photos they were organized and able to handle my large family and crazy nieces and nephews. All around best photography experience I've had!!
