    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!!!

    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!

    Andy was one of our absolute favorite vendors for our wedding! He is insanely talented and his personality and demeanor are ideal for a wedding photographer. He serves as a much-needed calming force, and his photos are absolutely beautiful. Highly recommend to any bride and groom!

    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!

    There is no better way to start a review about Carretto Studio then WOW. Andy is truly a one in a million photographer, and this is coming from a photography obsessed individual. Although we have not had our wedding yet, just seeing our engagement pictures make us that much more excited for our big day. There are few people that have the ability to make you laugh, feel comfortable and truly want to get to know you as a couple on a more personal level. We cannot wait to spend our wedding day with Andy and have those memories to share with our family and friends for our forever to come.

    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

    I can't take the credit for finding Carretto, but my fiancé and I were thrilled with the results. Andy made the evening smooth and enjoyable. We are looking forward to sharing our pictures for years to come. Thanks, Carretto Studios!

    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!

    Let me just preface this by saying that my parents are photographers, so finding the perfect photographer that they would approve of was no easy feat. The second we met with Andy and Beth, we knew we had found "the one"! Not only are they extremely professional, but their work is timeless and ethereal. Carretto Studio left us absolutely speechless with their flawless work! My parents were most impressed with the fact that we barely even knew they were there on the wedding day - a testament to how truly talented they are! We can't get over how perfect our images are, and they're something we will cherish for the rest of our lives! We can't thank Carretto Studio enough for being just as invested in telling our love story as we were!

    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!!

    Carretto Studio did an absolutely amazing job on our photos! Andy was great at suggesting picture poses and going along with ridiculous poses my family suggested. He made us feel very comfortable. The pictures turned out beautiful! Would definitely recommend Carretto Studio!

    Andy was really great to work with! We were from out of state, but Andy was very quick to reply to our emails and phone calls! We were a little nervous, but he was so easy to work with, he made us feel relaxed, and we had a great time doing it! We love every single one of our photos and highly recommend Carretto Studio.

    I do not even know where to begin when it comes to Carretto Studios. It is everything that every bride wants for her wedding. From the moment I found Andy on the Knot at 3 a.m. after obsessing about photographers, I noticed something different. His pictures were romantic, but not cheesy. They were artistic, but not over the top. Personally, I felt like I hit the jack pot! I then noticed how many awards he had won from various blogs and websites, and realized I was not the only person to be impressed with his work. He e-mailed me back the very next day and offered to meet with my fiance and I. We met at a cute coffee shop, where he offered to buy our ice cream! (What a gem.) We spoke with him, asked many questions, and looked through his work. After all of my hard work and research, I had found my man (besides my future husband! HA!).

    We had our engagement pictures this weekend, and although the weather was terrible, Andy assured me we would get great shots. And he DID. He has always gotten back to me within a day, and had our pictures to us that SAME NIGHT after our shoot! We had such a fun day at the City Museum and the Hilton 360, and Andy helped us feel so at ease. The pictures were PHENOMENAL. The way he uses lighting, different perspectives, and his creative eye, blend together to create a masterpiece. Ever since I posted a few pictures on Facebook, my friends have been raving about how they are the best engagement pictures they have ever seen.

    I simply can't wait for my wedding to be here, because I can't wait to see the pictures and relive it over and over again. After attending 14 weddings last year, I have seen how some photographers can not be what they look like on paper. Therefore, I highly recommend choosing Carretto Studios. It is one thing you will not regret!

    I cannot say enough about Andy and his work. He is so enjoyable to work with, always professional, and very dependable. We really enjoyed having him with us throughout the day. I highly recommend Carretto photography, not only for their photograohy but for the wonderful service they provide.

    Looking for a Photographer for your special day - AMAZING? RELIABLE? PICTURE PERFECT? Andy and Beth were that and beyond. Their photos are definitely a work of art, not just your click, shoot and hope for the best type. They give GREAT instruction for the best photos. I was terrified when looking for a photographer because I am very picky as I once was doing it myself. To say they met expectation is an understatement. Not only professional but their communication is excellent from beginning to end. Quality of final product was fantastic and impressive. We did our engagement photos as well as wedding and they were worth every penny and more! They definitely have "the eye" that so many photographers think they have... but don't. I would recommend them to everyone on the planet! Tip: you get what you pay for... don't let your wedding photos be trash for saving a couple extra bucks for some huge company etc - you will not only have wasted a large amount of money but trust me... you will not only regret it - you will painfully cry when you see what they produced. Been there and done that... Andy and Beth's photos will make you tear up too... with joy and relief for sure! RECOMMENDED!

    Andy and Elizabeth were absolutely amazing to work with for our wedding and engagement photos! They are incredibly talented and captured beautiful images all throughout our wedding day. We really enjoyed working with Andy and Elizabeth and getting to know them. Not only were we impressed with our engagement and wedding photos, but we were impressed with the professionalism and excellent communication they provided. Andy and Elizabeth were always quick to respond to any questions that I had and always provided helpful suggestions which made the whole wedding planning process much easier. I would highly recommend Carretto Studio for your wedding, you won't be disappointed!

    Beth & Andy Carretto are absolutely wonderful to work with! They’re incredibly talented photographers and they both have an eye for setting up gorgeous photos. They know how important your wedding is and they’re dedicated to creating beautiful images for you. They’re also willing to listen to your ideas to make sure you get the images you want. Andy and Beth are always professional and they made everyone feel at ease. They kept things moving so we had enough time to take a variety of photos at several locations. I LOVE all our photos! I definitely recommend Carretto Studio for your wedding!

    I can't say enough about these two!

    Andy and Elizabeth are truly two of the best you'll get. Not only do they have an eye for exactly what you're desiring, they are just fantastic to be around. As a couple, you will get a perspective that not many others can provide. They have two hearts that genuinely care about their clients and desire to provide the exact vision the client is after.

    Their photography is stunning; the kind of pictures that you see in magazines and wish you had on your wall. With them, they make this a reality. Architecturally speaking, they can create back drops that compliment the bride and groom in ways that will capture attention.

    Andy and Elizabeth should be your wedding photographer for more reasons than one so talk to them and find them all!

    Andy and Elizabeth did an awesome job with our wedding and I would highly recommend them! They came up with creative ideas for photos and helped us both remain clam during stressful times before the wedding! We had a huge wedding party and they were able to coordinate and organize everyone in all the group photos beautifully. The were super accommodating and split up during certain parts of the day so that we could get pictures of both the bridesmaids and the groomsmen getting ready. Elizabeth also got stuck with our crazy wedding party on the bus while Andy got amazing pictures of our reception venue before our guest arrived! :)

    Andy and Beth were extremely nice from the first day that we met with them. They got a feel for who we were as a couple and really listened to what we wanted in our pictures for our wedding. Great first impression! They also bared the snow and cold for our engagement pictures. They helped make great memories for us on our wedding day. From the pictures of us getting ready to the first look, everything felt organized and more calm because of them. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!
