My Bio & Approach To Photography
My goal is to provide the best possible experience. It’s essential to my work that you feel comfortable, confident, and truly in the moment. By creating a warm, relaxed connection with you and your guests, I simultaneously blend in while remaining close by. I am not just your photographer, but a friend.
Having photographed for news outlets such as the Associated Press, I use my experience as a photojournalist to tell better stories. My photojournalistic style means I gravitate to the moments, and do so without being intrusive. I’m not there to manufacture anything. My focus is on telling your unique story, letting the emotion of your wedding shine through. Even though the day may go by in a blur, it’s my job to bring your wedding back into focus through photographs. Your focus can be on fully experiencing your wedding, knowing that I will provide you a way to relive each moment in rich detail.
It’s humbling that I’m trusted with this job. I make a simple promise to each of my couples: that nobody will work harder to capture the beautiful, unscripted, wild and emotional ride that is their wedding. It’s why I’m compelled to continually re-double my efforts to be the best visual storyteller possible. In the end, it’s a joy and honor to deliver a family heirloom that will be enjoyed time and time again. With every moment that I carefully photograph and reflect back, I renew my love for my craft.
A little about me personally…. I grew up in Milwaukee (go Packers!), spent a few years in Boston, then settled in Vermont, where I went to UVM as an art major. My mom, an (amazing!) artist, gave me my first camera when I was 14 and I was off to the races. I cherish spending quality time with my family & friends, frequently exploring the beauty of Vermont and the neighboring Adirondacks by skiing, hiking, sailing, or quietly enjoying a beautiful day. These moments fill my soul and inspire my creativity. -Andy Duback
