An Amazing Photographer
Andrea’s dedication to her craft is utterly astounding. She shoots in both film and digital and has an eye that is able to turn your wedding photos into works of art. Truly capturing the romance and magic of the day. She is so easy to work with and made us feel completely comfortable while she snapped away. Her fun bubbly personality had us laughing the whole time.Andrea’s dedication to her craft is utterly astounding.

Andrea is an absolutely lovely person inside and out. She was extremely accommodating with both mine and my now husband's schedules. We are both in the military and I am in Rhode Island and he is in DC and she was so helpful in scheduling engagement pictures and sticking with us even though our wedding date changed 3 times! Since I was so far away, she was always willing to recommend vendors or offer other help.
We absolutely love both our engagement and wedding photos and Andrea was so creative and willing to work with us wherever we wanted to go. We got married on the National Mall at the WWI memorial and then walked around to the Lincoln memorial and a few other places to do our wedding photos afterwards. Our engagement photos were at the National Arboretum and she was so creative!
I highly recommend Andrea and look forward to working with her again if we every want to take any other photos in the future! If you want to have a great time and feel comfortable go with Andrea! She will make you feel beautiful and produce amazing results!Andrea is an absolutely lovely person inside and out. She was extremely accommodating with both mine and my now husband's schedules.

Andrea photographed my engagement pictures and wedding. She was great! Very flexible and willing to work with us. I've only seen a couple of my wedding pics yet, but I love them and the engagement pictures were phenomenal. I really enjoyed having her be part of our wedding.Andrea photographed my engagement pictures and wedding. She was great! Very flexible and willing to work with us.

Andrea is phenomenal! She is so talented and gave us pintrest-worthy photos that we will cherish forever. When I started wedding planning I was shocked to find out the rates of wedding photography. Packages starting at $6k- OMG! I found Andrea through a mutual friend and I am so glad I hired her immediately when I saw her 8 hr package for $2k that included engagement photos. ANDREA IS INCREDIBLE! Not only is she a great value, she is extremely talented and she is a great person to work with and be around. Our engagement photos were taken at the National Harbor during peak tourist season; Andrea jedi mind tricked all the tourists to stay out of photos. It looked like we were there by ourselves having a romantic date. She has an eye for natural lighting that made our sunset engagement photos swoon worthy. Our wedding day photos exceeded all of my expectations. The detail shots of the rings and stationary looked like it could be in a bridal magazine. She got amazing bride and groom first look and couple portraits set in romantic cobblestone alleyways of Old Town Alexandria. She knew exactly where to go and even called the uber for us. Everyone knows that family wedding portraits are the worst part of every wedding- Andrea did a fantastic job at herding all the uncles and cousins REAL fast. She paid attention to everyone in the group shots. We even had a group shot of all the wedding guests immediately after the ceremony- she directed it all professionally and calmly. We are so impressed with and would highly recommend her to anyone! We got married on Nov 11 and within DAYS she gave us a sneak peak of the wedding photos so that we could have holiday and thank you cards made. I cannot wait to see the rest of the wedding photos!Andrea is phenomenal! She is so talented and gave us pintrest-worthy photos that we will cherish forever.

Took over a year to get photos
I initially wrote Andrea a positive review based on my interaction with her after I received my wedding preview photos. In all her photos were great and she was punctual and pleasant to work with; however, I can’t recommend her based on the length of time it took to receive the rest of my photos; my wedding was May 30th 2015 and I received my photos April 2016 only after attempts to contact her via phone and e-mail failed and my sister posted my story to her Facebook. I’m updating my review only because my Sister-in-law recently encountered a similar situation with her wedding photography and I would hate for any bride to go through the stress of not knowing if she’ll receive her photos or not.I initially wrote Andrea a positive review based on my interaction with her after I received my wedding preview photos.

Over a year after our wedding, we have still not received our wedding photos
Everything was going perfectly. Her engagement shots were beautiful. Andrea was super sweet and very professional to work with. She brought along a second photographer to our wedding and helped coordinate everything. She only messaged us a day or two before the wedding for the final details, which was a tiny bit stressful since family was already in town, but no biggie at all. However, after receiving the wedding preview photos, we never received the rest of the images. We knew it was a hard time with COVID-19, so we were not going to push too hard. We spoke to her on the phone once in April and she was so surprised that we never received the final photos. It seemed like a simple mix-up. However, we haven't heard from her since. We've called, texted, emailed, left messages on her website. I'm posting this review not only to warn other couples about this odd behavior, but more to see if we can clear this up with Andrea. Andrea was a great photographer, I don't want to bad-mouth her. All we want are the remaining photos from our big day.Everything was going perfectly. Her engagement shots were beautiful.

Only Negative Part Of Our Wedding
As stated in the title, the only bad part of our wedding was our choice of photographer. We were married September 1, 2019, and still have yet to receive our wedding album.
My wife found Andrea on Instagram and loved her style. Unfortunately, Andrea was late for our wedding day, my wife had to pull teeth to get the pictures she wanted post-wedding and Miss Rodway has yet to send us the photo album from our contract.
It's been many months with unreturned emails, phone calls, texts and Instagram messages (I've tried everything). She initially agreed to make things right by offering back our deposit, but that has yet to happen either.
It's clear we won't get our money back or what we agreed to in our contract, but hopefully we can prevent other couples from making the same mistake.As stated in the title, the only bad part of our wedding was our choice of photographer.
