About Andrea Stark

I am a wedding and portrait photographer based in the Rocky Mountains with over 10 years experience in the wedding industry. As a wedding photographer, my style is photojournalistic by documenting your day in a way that tells a cohesive story, but I also like to create beautiful and timeless portraits. My work has been featured in online publications like Rocky Mountain Bride and The Wedding Chicks.

I am totally passionate about getting to tell the stories of my couple’s life journey. When he finally gets down on one knee, and she says “YES!” Their first kiss as husband and wife; When they’re expecting their first child; I get to document a newborn in a super short season of their life, so that their parents will never forget how small they actually were. I get to capture how their family grows. I get to tell the story of a graduate’s journey in the next exciting chapter in their life. I get to freeze a moment in time that no one will get to experience again except through that picture. I get to curate and creatively document one of the best days in a family’s life when they see their baby, marry the person they’ve always wished for them to marry.

I live with my husband and daughter in Breckenridge, Colorado. I absolutely love being centered in the mountains! After all, the mountains have always been a part of my life. I grew up in small-town Mountain Home, Arkansas. Then I went to college at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, Arkansas, which is set on a hill in the Ozark mountains. There I received my Bachelors and Masters degrees in Broadcast Journalism and Secondary English Education. That is when I photographed my first wedding in 2009 and fell in love with the art of storytelling a wedding day through photography.

In my early twenties, I wanted to be a journalist, because I grew up watching the news. As I got older I became very interested in the process of how they told their stories. Now, I get to be one, but in a different kind of way.
