Rae A. Sent on 10/31/2022Nonstop fun! Super sweet! Creative mind!
Whenever I think of photography, I think of Andrea. I have known her for years and have watched her business grow from just her and her camera- to now having it ALL! She exudes high energy, laughter, fun, and love and captures your precious memories in the moment. I have used her for children sessions, mommy & me and most recently our engagement pictures! I cannot help but recommend Andrea to anyone I know that is looking to have pictures done. She’s great with whatever your needs are, flexible and has some creative ideas to bring to the table. You will not be disappointed! Our engagement pictures turned out INCREDIBLE!! And we got many more to choose from than we imagined! -

Where do I even start…Andrea and I have known each other for over 20 years starting in 4th grade. While in school we were never considered close friends, but we never had an issue speaking to each other. After we graduated, we would see each other around our hometown, and every time we did, we would catch up, have a few laughs, and go about our separate ways. There were always the occasional “likes” on Facebook but yet we could always reach out to each other and keep in touch.
Fast forward a few years…my fiancé at the time asked me “do you know any photographers who can do our wedding?” It didn’t take me long to think of Andrea and I immediately looked up her business (Whimsical Roots Photography) and sent her a message asking if she could photograph our wedding. As excited as I was when my now husband asked me to marry him, I was just excited when Andrea said “YES!”.
From start to finish, Andrea was nothing but kind, professional, and willing to listen to all of the questions that we had and patient enough to answer them all, and because of our history, it was great to catch up on our personal lives as well.
The day of our wedding, even though I was freezing my butt off outside, Andrea kept my laughing the entire time and even let me borrow her hand warmers to keep me from turning purple. Once we moved inside, she did exactly like we discussed…fly on the wall photography, which was shown in the photos after and made us feel that we were there all over again.
What our biggest takeaway from this experience was, not only how Andrea treated my husband and I, but the number of comments that we received from our guests PRAISING the amazing job that Andrea did. She never pressured them into taking a picture, always had a smile on, and made our guests laugh the night away. Every picture of our family and/or friends, you can see how much FUN they had, and it was very evident by what they said about her and what we saw through the photos.
Words can never describe how thankful we are that Andrea was able to be there on our special day. I am beyond blessed that she has been in my life for as long as she has and that she could be a part of this day, one of the biggest days of my/our life. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being there and for taking such good care not only of us, but most importantly, of our family and friends.

Ashley M. Sent on 01/23/2023Andrea is amazing
We found Whimsical Roots via Google and we sent an inquiry right away to book Andrea for our engagement and wedding sessions. We loved the bright colors in her photos and that they didn’t look heavily edited. We wanted photos that were natural looking and Andrea did just that. Interacting with Andrea was a dream and it felt like we clicked not just as photographer and client, but also as friends! She is so personable and kind. She helped us get comfortable and laughing in front of the camera, which resulted in hundreds of amazing photos. We got our engagement photos back within a few weeks, and our wedding photos back in about 2 months. We couldn’t believe just how many quality photos she had gotten of our special day. Andrea was super responsive and timely with getting back to us, and it was so easy for us to put our trust in her. We love Andrea and we recommend Whimsical Roots for any and all photography events! -

Best photographer for a bright, bold, unique wedding
Pretty much from my first visit to Andrea’s website I could tell she had a good vibe and I’m so glad I chose her as our wedding photographer. Throughout the whole process leading up to our wedding she put true effort into getting to know us, our story, and our style. We wanted our wedding to be a bright vibrant day that was really unique to who we are and Andrea capture the essence of that beautifully. Her photos captured so much genuine emotion and her editing perfectly enhanced the bright colors we had. She is such a bright friendly person that made us all feel comfortable getting photographed and kept the laughs rolling. We have since moved out of state but would absolutely travel back to Wisco to use Andrea as a photographer again, that’s how much we love her and her work. You should definitely book her too. -

Andrea is the most amazing photographer! Having engagement and wedding photos done by her and they captured EVERYTHING I was hoping for. Just in the moment and not stiff and uncomfortable looking, and the color is just stunning. She made both of those days the best days ever and I now have amazing photos to look back on those memories. I can’t wait for my 1 yr anniversary photo shoot!!!! -

Amazing!
When I posted on my Facebook that I needed a wedding photographer Andrea came HIGHLY recommended from many friends. We booked Andrea for our Engagement Pictures, Wedding Pictures and our One Year Anniversary Pictures. We chose Andrea because she is a fantastic photographer, professional and an amazing person. We were looking for someone who would capture all the special moments of our big day so we could look back at them forever. Andrea exceeded our expectations. She captured every special moment of our day and we couldn’t have asked for more. I was concerned about the amount of time that we would have to take pictures after the ceremony. Andrea helped me to make a list of all the pictures we wanted and really nail down an exact timeline to make sure we could get everything we wanted. The day of she did a fantastic job of getting our family and bridal party where they were supposed to be in order to get these pictures done. Working with Andrea from start to finish was incredible. She goes above and beyond. Before we had our engagement pictures done she took the time to get to know Chris & I. She learned about our relationship, our hobbies and our lives. Which really made both of us feel comfortable with her. She is also organized and timely with her work. Something that sticks out in my mind when working with Andrea is her spunky personality. She made every session so much fun. I just simply love her! She’s such an amazing human and photographer. Our finished photos are beautiful. She captured everything we wanted and more. My favorite photos are the candid ones where you can just see how much fun everyone was having! Booking your next session with Andrea is the best decision you will make! -

Danielle L. Sent on 10/06/2020Super fun and easy engagement shoot!
Andrea is so great to work with! I am not one that feels comfortable in front of a camera and Andrea was so welcoming and genuine while taking our engagement photos. She is great at showing our true personalities through the photos she takes. Our pictures all came back amazing and we can not wait for her to photograph our wedding next year. -

Perfect and Flexible Wedding Fit
Andrea does amazing work, you can see it in her portfolio but her professionalism and personality set her apart. We had a smaller unconventional wedding and Andrea made sure her services fit us and not the other way around. I really appreciated her constant understanding and listening to what we wanted vs. making what she wanted and it is hard to come by. Her fees were reasonable and her work was breathtaking to receive. She laughingly called herself a ninja and would move swiftly to capture so many special and candid moments. She has a knack for capturing the emotional sweet moments that I felt but until I received her pictures, I didn't see. She felt like a friend you have known for years and are comfortable with. I cannot recommend her enough and hope others are as fortunate to have her photograph their amazing moments. -

Friendly, professional - would recommend!
Even though Andrea is a good friend, she still treated the shoot as professionally as she would any other shoot. The pictures turned out beautiful! She captured everything on our list, and even suggested an alternate place to take our bridal party photos because she thought it would fit our style better than the place we'd selected just because it was closer to the venue. She even made sure to get pictures of each table decoration since every one was different, as well as the room setup with the uplighting. I didn't really get to enjoy it the day of, so it was very nice to see so many pictures of the setup. I would recommend her to anyone! -

I had seen some of Andrea's work online and I just loved the vision she had behind her photographs. When we got engaged, I knew I had to have her doing our wedding photos. Our big day was FREEZING cold but we had the best time! Andrea made everyone feel comfortable and the photos turned out better than I could have ever envisioned! Thank you for making our day magical with these gorgeous photos we now get to cherish forever! -
