Andrea and her team were a bride’s dream. I can’t recommend them enough! When they walked in the bridal suite after an anxious morning, I felt a sense of ease, knowing I could trust them with whatever the day had in store. They truly made us feel beautiful. Andrea paid close attention to the detail I included in my photo style request, and remembered every detail. Thank you Amative!

Amative Creative was an absolute joy to work with and we cannot recommend them enough! Andrea is one of the kindest, most relaxed, and fun people I have met and is oh so talented! My husband and I cannot emphasize enough how much we loved our experience and we truly could not imagine our wedding day without Amative! Andrea and her assistant were a dream to work with on our wedding day. We had a large wedding, a rain-delay, and lots of moving pieces but not once did we ever feel rushed or stressed by our photo team and yet we got through all the photos on our list. Few people are both efficient and relaxed but Andrea is! She is so good at getting incredible photos while also putting her subjects at ease and making them enjoy the process. Many of our family and guests commented on how much they enjoyed interacting with our photographers. And the quality of her work: Wow! We absolutely love our preview gallery and everyone we have showed our photos to can’t stop exclaiming over them. All of our pictures are stunning and I truly want to print and hang them all! We absolutely cannot wait to see our full gallery! Thank you Andrea and the Amative Creative team for being a highlight of our day and helping us remember our day for the rest of our lives!

Francesca was an absolute joy to work with as our wedding photographer! She truly went above and beyond to capture all of our special moments, making sure that each one of my inspiration photos came to life. Her attention to detail and dedication to getting the perfect shots were evident throughout the entire day.

Not only is Francesca incredibly talented, but she was also so easy to work with—professional, kind, and patient. She made us feel comfortable and at ease, which really showed in the beautiful photos. I couldn’t be happier with how she captured our day, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who will bring your vision to life with creativity and care!

Andrea was amazing to work with! I do AV and piano for weddings and was working with Amative Creative to do a wedding recently, and their team went out of the way to help me get my equipment dry when it unexpectedly started raining. Great at their job, but more importantly great people in general who were super helpful and kind. Would 100% recommend.

We couldn't be happier with our wedding videographer/photographer crew! They were incredibly kind and sweet, making us feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire day. Their flexibility was amazing, accommodating all our requests with a smile. They perfectly captured our special day just as I had imagined, preserving every precious moment beautifully. Highly recommend!

From our initial call with Andrea, we knew she and her team would be an amazing asset to our big day. Words cannot begin to describe how Amative Creative exceeded our expectations! From the moment Andrea and the team arrived, it was like a long lost sister/friend/aunt/hypesuperwoman blew through the door. They were everywhere and all over, and yet not visible in the way you've seen *those* photographers & videographers at events. AND THE SNEAK PEAK ALBUM.... WOW!!!! A little over three months into our marriage and we STILL rave about how extraordinary Amative Creative captured our event, and we cannot wait to see the rest!

I can not begin to describe how amazing these girls are!  I had my wedding back in August and it was absolutely perfect!  Looking back at my pictures throughout the day, I could not have asked for a better team by my side!  Sarah & Amber absolutely killed the photos and are two of the biggest hype women I have ever met!  Throughout the entire day they were constantly there singing praises and doing anything to get genuine smiles.  Andrea was the one I talked to throughout this whole process and she is absolutely amazing!  She was very kind and patient with me throughout the process (I can be indecisive and really didn't fully know my editing style) and she made it work and went above and beyond with editing!
All three ladies are absolutely amazing and if you need a wedding photographer/videographer - look no further!!  These ladies DO NOT disappoint!

Words cannot possibly communicate how incredible it was to have Andrea document our engagement and wedding. Her team and the pictures they take are obviously stunning. Even with a then fiancé who is very uncomfortable taking pictures, Andrea was able to make him feel comfortable and some how capture our quirks and dynamic perfectly. And her ability to be flexible in her editing, getting the exact editing style her clients want, is not only beyond generous, but art at its finest, truly. But what sets Andrea apart the most for us was who she is. Andrea isn’t someone who just sits idly by capturing amazing moments; she CREATES them. She even danced on the dance floor with our guests, spent time teaching me (the bride) a dance, all the while taking amazing pictures of the fun we had. What Andrea does is both art AND relationship. She is worth far beyond what she prices. Our wedding was made all the more memorable because of her, and we couldn’t be more grateful.

Andrea and team have been nothing short of phenomenal. Not only did Andrea take the time to talk through the entire process from start to finish and answer all of our questions, but she remained in constant contact before, during and after our wedding. She always answered our texts and calls, no matter what time of day or night! She and her team made us feel very comfortable during our engagement and wedding photos, and she respected our comfort level. The photos the Amative Creative team delivered are straight out of a wedding catalogue--her product matched our vision exactly. She provided 2,000 photos within six months and the wait was totally worth it.
Not only did Andrea take our engagement and wedding photos, but she connected us with a photographer while we were on our honeymoon in Paris to take additional photos that Andrea then edited and delivered within two days. Working with her has felt like a dream! Andrea and team love their clients like their own family, and we would recommend Amative Creative again and again.

About

Andrea Lewis
Photographer Andrea Lewis About me

What makes us stand out is that we do the unheard of in the photography and videography world. We actually allow our clients to guide the creative direction for their wedding imagery. Are you someone who wants a bright and airy luxurious feel? Or perhaps you're looking for a dark and dramatic mood. Maybe you want to elope in the mountains and feel the earthy and adventurous energy of the day. Whatever your vision, we can make it happen. I learned early in my wedding career that no two weddings are the same. And was baffled by every photographer & film maker slapping the same edit style to every couple's day, as if each wedding was indeed identical. Stepping out of the norm and opening up the editing choice to the client is nearly taboo in the photographic world, but I knew our clients deserved better. So if you're looking for someone who can come along side your vision and bring it to life... Look no further.
