I'm Andrea Arostegui a driven professional focused on impacting business goals and working with other people that will benefit from creativity, teambuilding and my expertise in social media marketing to promote their company and brand. For the past 6 years I have been documenting and photographing weddings all across South Florida. 

I was a Mass Communications major at the University of Miami, but after shooting my first wedding I pursued that as a career while taking a break from school. I am now pursuing my Bachelor's degree in Interdisciplinary Studies at Florida International University with a concentration in Advertising and Marketing.​

My work and photographs have now been featured in a few wedding blogs and magazines and as advertisements to local companies. I have helped set up and build sites for other vendors in South Florida and recently started Food Styling and Photography for my own Food Blog - some of those photos have also been featured by other restaurants and instagram accounts.
