The Experience

This season moves faster
than anyone expects.

We're Andres and Andrea — the two-person team behind A&A Photo Design. We photograph families the way we'd want our own remembered: warm, unhurried, and honest. No stiff posing, no forced smiles, no rushing a toddler who isn't ready yet.

Every collection below is built around your family rather than a formula. We'll help you choose locations, plan wardrobe, and time the session so everyone is at their best — then we stay out of the way and let the afternoon happen.

Included in every collection

  • Pre-session planning call and location scouting
  • Wardrobe, styling, and color palette guidance
  • Professionally edited, high-resolution digital images
  • Private online gallery — yours to download and share
  • Personal print release for your own printing
  • Full support from first message to final delivery

Andres & Andrea

Two photographers, one afternoon.

Most sessions are covered by one person. Ours are covered by two — one of us working the portraits everyone came for, the other catching what happens in between. It's why our galleries come back fuller, and why the pictures people frame are usually the ones nobody posed for.

We're based in Stratford, Connecticut, and we photograph throughout Connecticut and New York. Maternity and newborn, families, couples and engagements, and graduation portraits at UConn, Southern, and beyond.

Booking & Common Questions

When should we schedule a maternity session?

Between 28 and 34 weeks is ideal — you're clearly showing but still comfortable on your feet.

Can our toddler be part of the session?

Please bring them. We photograph children constantly and build extra time into every session for them.

What happens if it rains?

Outdoor sessions affected by weather are rescheduled at no cost, subject to availability.

Do you travel?

Yes — throughout Connecticut and New York. Travel beyond 30 miles of Stratford is billed per mile.

How do we reserve our date?

A signed agreement and a 50% non-refundable retainer. Dates are held on a first-reserved basis.

When will we see our photos?

We send a small preview within 48 hours. Your full gallery arrives on the timeline listed in your collection.
