What People Are Saying
Andrea, you are an amazing photographer and made that photo shoot so easy and enjoyable! The difference between you and other photographers I’ve gone to is the love that radiates from your eyes as you were guiding me into the different poses. It put me so at ease and drew me out of myself, it drew that same emotion of love out of me and I think that’s what you captured on film. Sondra Lee

As a Professional Photographer myself, I give Andrea my highest possible recommendation! She is an expert portrait photographer and always exceeds her client's expectations. I've had the pleasure of working with her on several assignments and she is an exceptional director. If you want or need a headshot or portrait, WORK WITH ANDREA! (...before I can convince her to raise her rates, because she is worth way more than she charges!!) Alice B,

I went see Andrea on a whim, with no expectations. She was so charming and gracious. I felt comfortable right away. Her studio is lovely. She has loads of accessories and clothing for you to use. She did my hair and make up, then I wore an outfit I brought with me.. suddenly I was glamorous. And now I have some beautiful portraits to remind me of the experience. We spent a joyful afternoon together and I highly recommend her.

Originally I came to Andrea for a business headshot. After reviewing her portfolio, I chose to add a few creative wardrobe changes and poses later in the same session. I appreciated her professionalism in helping me create poses that were flattering. When I came back to her studio to pick up the pictures I'd ordered, they were wrapped in a beautiful presentation. She is the consummate professional and I would recommend her to anyone interested in any type of photography, whether it's in the studio or on location. She does beautiful work!

When I went to Andrea's studio she was hosting our Women Entrepreneurs group and offering headshots to our group members. After days of agonizing about whether or not I'd have her take my photo, I left for the event at her place having decided - nope, no photo. I haven't worn makeup in three years. I didn't do my hair. I wore an old branded t-shirt just to look at unphotographable as possible. Once there, peer pressure took over... Come on! You gotta have your photo taken. I thought, ok, but no one will ever see it because I won't be passing that around with my dark eye circles, red cheeks, and double chin. Andrea draped a soft pink tulle around my neckline to cover my black t-shirt, had me stand with one foot way forward, and hands resting on that forward knee, and lean as forward as possible without falling over. Snap. Done. A few days later she presented our photos with no retouching. People kept asking me if that photo was taken in my 20's. It's so lovely. The lighting is soft, and my dark eye circles are non-existent, and I look great, not what I saw in the mirror when I left my house that day. I was always skeptical of photographers. The technology in cameras today with auto-features and photoshop, in my previous opinion, made it very easy for anyone to feel like a photographer and take stunning photographs if you just took enough of them and used cropping, filters, and tech tools. I no longer hold that skepticism or belief. What Andrea does with you as a subject is so subtle, but the outcome is absolutely everything. I've seen the before/after of many of my group members since then and if you want a real artist and photographer experience - Andrea should be your pick.

What an amazing experience! I just finished my first headshot ever with Andrea and had such a great time. From beginning to end Andrea was organized and prepared me well for what I needed to expect the day of our shoot. I was pretty much clueless about the process so her guidance helped me a lot. Andrea is very professional. I emailed her for scheduling and she called me the same day to discuss what my business was about and collaborated with me about the look of my shoot. We talked about what I needed to bring the day of and I received a PDF guide via email. This was great as I had to reference it a few days before and the day of. I sent images of the outfits I would be wearing in advance. The day I arrived at her studio she was on time with our appointment. We recapped what we had discussed over the phone and started on hair and makeup. I then took photos in various outfits and poses. It was so much fun! Andrea is very easy to talk to and she was great at coaching me on what to do. She really made me smile and feel beautiful. Highly recommend her! See her photos and they all speak for themselves! This woman is passionate and cares about all the details!

At our initial visit, Andrea discussed clothing choices with me. giving me feedback about what items would look good on camera, which I appreciated. It was fun to have her assistant fix my hair and do my makeup; I was excited to see what a pro could do! Andrea's studio is small and intimate and I felt at home; her directions were warm, kind, and very clear. She really made me feel "fun" and beautiful! I was blown away when I was invited back to look at the images. She presented them first in a slide show. What I really liked is that she backed off and let me just look. All I could say was "Wow. Ooh! Ohhh! Wow!" Even though I don't have kids to gift these to, it felt important for me to have these visions of myself at my best. Afterwards, I realized that I also wanted to have really wonderful portraits of my husband as well. Andrea was so great with my husband, even though he is so pressed for time for such things. Time passes us by all too quickly, and neither of us will be alive and healthy and well forever. I was really glad I took advantage of this opportunity!

On Wednesday my publisher asked for a professional quality photo by Monday. Andrea met me on Sunday morning and within an hour had a number of high quality photographs. She edited them that afternoon and I had them well before dinner - all at a very reasonable fee. Andrea is fun and easy to work, and I know where I'm going for all my future photography needs.

I live out of the area and needed family photos since it had been ages since last taken. [Andrea] picked out a wonderful spot on the beach. Our photography session was easy going, fun and extremely productive. The images were beautiful and terrific quality.

I am not one to have my Photo taken, and because of this my daughters have never had a picture of me to have for the future. I wanted Andrea to do my portrait because I wanted to have the option of the ocean. I drove over an hour for Andrea. When I met her, she was very inviting and I felt as though I've known her for a very long time. I trusted her to choose the best venue for my portrait, and she did absolutely wonderful in her choosing. She made me realize that I AM a beautiful person and she brought out the best in me and even a little vixen too. We had so much fun and I enjoyed the setting experience totally. She has to be commended on how prompt and fast she was from the beginning to the delivery of my portrait given I needed it by Christmas. I don't believe that I would have gotten the same service if I had gone to a Mall Photo Shop. My daughters were absolutely Surprised and Thrilled with the Portrait on Christmas Day. And I know that they will cherish the Portrait for years to come. I plan on having Andrea do my family's Portrait in the future. This will include as many as a dozen or more people. I can't wait until I can have the family Portrait taken by Andrea.

I Highly Recommend Andrea Fine! Andrea is a consummate professional. The photographic work I require is crucial to my business as a Realtor. She knew exactly how to create the perfect poses with excellent balanced lighting. Also she was very open to suggestion asking me throughout the process for my feedback. I cannot recommend her more highly. I am thrilled with the result!

Thank you Andrea for my warm yet professional photos! You were very encouraging with your heart-felt comments. You were quick to respond, and I appreciated your flexibility to get me a digital photo for my important speaking engagement THE SAME DAY as my photo session! I am happy to finally have a professional photo that can be used for many purposes including my forthcoming book, social media, website & more. I will recommend you to my family and friends!"

Andrea is amazing and talented! My experience was such a positive one. It enabled me to see myself in a new light. As a mother of two and a business women being sexy is not at the top of the list. The experience Andrea gave me was one of my most favorite pampered moments! Such a gift to self! Thank you so much Andrea!

Really a terrific experience working with Andrea. She understood my needs and provided quality photos in record time. I wanted both professional photos as well as some boudoir shots. She handled both requests. I would not hesitate to recommend her services.

Look no further if you want a professional, talented and yet sensitive photographer who will work WITH you. I cannot recommend Andrea highly enough. Despite the fact that I’m quite shy and modest, she encouraged me to relax, and made me feel comfortable and at ease during our sessions. I’ve never perceived myself as being sexy, but I actually enjoyed the experience, and wow! The final prints are awesome! As a full time computer tech, jeweler on the side, and grandmother of 11, the experience helped me realize that no matter what age we are, we can still feel sensuous and look beautiful. Thank you again Andrea!
