OUR PHOTOGRAPHERS

André’s co-photographers have each been handpicked because their photography styles, personalities, and philosophies closely mirror his own. As wedding photographers, they are as calm and unobtrusive as they are skilled and experienced. Each has trained and shot alongside André for years. With any one of our photographers, couples can access the same relaxed, unscripted, and beautiful wedding photography. Couples always know which wedding photographer they will be working with in advance, and André edits and retouches every photo and handles the creation of every wedding album.

The photos came out stunning, truly magazine worthy! He captured every single moment from our special day - ranging from close up shots of us holding hands to a wide view of our entire reception room. The pictures have allowed us to relive it over again. It was also a very fast turn around time, so we were able to share the pictures with our family & friends as early as the next day. Highly recommend Andre & his team

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We worked with André for our wedding and could NOT be happier! André from start to finish made us feel comfortable and listened to everything we wanted. We met before and he got to know us and what we envisioned for our day. He was professional, calm and such a pleasure to work with. My husband and I are both very uncomfortable on camera and he did such a great job making us feel natural. He was patient and so kind every step. He did a great job working around our families as we got ready before, and got some great action shots of our dog, the flower girl. We got so many amazing pictures and he was so quick to give us a sample the next day. Should we have any need for a photographer in the future we will of course work with André again!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. André is the absolute best! We used André for all facets of the wedding weekend, including the engagement shoot and rehearsal dinner and all of the pictures came out nothing short of spectacular! He was so nice and good to work with, he had great ideas for shots and let my wife and I be ourselves in the photos. I really feel like he captured our personality in a visually stunning way! He is an absolute delight to work with, couldn’t have imagined a better photography partner for my wedding night. I feel so thankful we had someone like André to help us capture the special day, and my wife, and I love looking back through all of the photos!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Andre came highly recommended to us, and he did not disappoint. We hosted a business cocktail party at our offices, and he was delightful. He blended in with the guests and took beautiful pictures. We received a few edited photos that same night, which was amazing and greatly appreciated.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had the privilege of working with Andre for our engagement and wedding day photos on 9/17/23. We could not be more pleased with the results. He was super quick in turning around the final edited photos, and we loved the mini keepsake album we received before the night was even over! He creates not only beautiful, candid shots, but also an environment that is relaxed where people can be themselves. When asked to provide some guidance on some poses, he gladly did that as well. We plan on creating a larger wedding album through Andre, and I already know how difficult it will be to select only a handful of photos that will make the cut. Once again, thanks for your partnership Andre!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can honestly say I have never seen wedding photos as nice as mine. André worked so hard to get the very best shot, I could feel the emotion in every shot. Not even the ones where we were posing felt mediocre or like your “standard wedding photos” if you booked anyone else it would truly be a mistake, even my guests can’t stop telling me how good a photographer I got.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Andre and his team were amazing! They made me and my husband feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Andre strikes a great balance of capturing everything while not being intrusive. The photos came out beautifully, and we even got to take some home the night of our wedding!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We partnered with Andre Maier’s team for our NYC wedding, working primarily with Theo and his assistant.  They were absolutely incredible through-and-through!  Theo’s calm, kind and friendly disposition paired with his professionalism and keen expertise helped me, my family, the bridal party and our guests, all feel at ease and relaxed throughout the day/night.

We lost an hour of time between the ceremony and reception due to weather and bad traffic, which was reserved for our core wedding portraits, and I was panicked!  Theo reassured me that we’d get it done and   all would work out - and he miraculously made it happen in a very short and limited window of time.

At the end of the wedding, Theo presented us with a book of 10 gorgeous images he shot throughout the night, and the next day we received over 100 beautifully edited images.  I can only image what the full catalogue will look like!

We truly have enjoyed our experience working with this team and highly recommend them!

TESTIMONIALS

“Planning our wedding was as painful as purchasing an apartment in NYC. The most rewarding outcome (that required the least amount of effort) was working with Andre. He completely captured the event without being intrusive. The wedding party and guests all looked natural and spontaneous–no cliche, staged shots. He immediately gave us high resolution files at no additional cost. We are so proud of Andre’s work.” — Daryl & Hootan

“André was amazing to work with from the moment we met him. Our initial consultation made us sure that he was the right photographer for us. His photojournalistic method was exactly what we were looking for. At our wedding he couldn’t have been more perfect. We didn’t even know he was there — the mark of a brilliant photographer. And then when we got our photos (only 3 weeks later!!!!) we were thrilled. They truly told the story of our wedding day. We would recommend him to anyone.” —Sara & Chris

“Andre was amazing throughout the whole process! When we met with him before our wedding he impressed us with his laid back, relaxed attitude, his focus on candid shots and of course the quality of his pictures blew us away! We knew right away we wanted him to shoot our wedding. When our wedding day arrived, Andre was very inconspicuous — I actually only noticed him once throughout the whole day (except for our posed family shots) yet he captured every single moment of our special day! When we got home from our honeymoon our prints were on my email already- and they brought tears to my eyes! Needless to say I would highly recommend Andre if you are looking for amazing photos for any special occasion!!” — Valerie & Greg
