    Andy is awesome

    Excuse the cheesy analogy, but if our wedding was a sporting event and Andy was a player, you could undoubtedly say that Andy left it all on the field. In fact, some of the field came home with him because on many occasions, Andy literally got grass stains on his knees and shirt for the perfect shot.

    From the very beginning of our relationship, Andy was engaged and creative, and guided us through the preparation and planning like a professional. Andy also brought a personal touch by being present and guiding during the special, intimate moments without being a distraction. His demeanor is only matched by his skill, and the result was a comfortable and easy process paired with a wonderful set of photos we treasure.

    Some of the vendors we had during our wedding made us wish we could do it all again - if only to have the pleasure of working with them again. Andy was one of those folks. Thank you, Andy

    Incredible photographer!!

    Andy Duback’s skill as a photographer speaks for itself when you see his photos. He was previously a news photographer for AP, and has an incredible ability to capture the many incredible moments that make up a wedding day. But the thing that really makes Andy stand out is just what a wonderful person he is to be around. He was able to make myself and my husband, two people who usually feel awkward in front of a camera, feel so at ease. He’s incredibly organized, and goes out of his way to get to know you both as a couple and your vision for the day and what you want out of the photographs for the day. We haven’t seen all the photos yet, but the previews he sent (less than 24 hours after the event!) are incredible and we can’t wait to see the rest.

    Can't thank Andy enough!

    I was the most nervous (even dreading) the wedding picture taking process... I wanted good photos of course but I do not like posing for them... However, Andy from the very beginning calmed any nerves I had about it. He had great communication throughout the planning part of the wedding and was so personable. Andy is very organized which made me confident in him and his ability to "wrangle" my family members efficiently for picture time. He also has great vision for couple first look and portrait shots. However, the real reason I picked Andy was for his candid shots that I saw in his portfolio. These are the photos I want to look back on and remember how wonderful the day was and how happy our family and friends were. I already got to see some amazing candid pictures of our wedding in our sneak peak and I cannot wait to see more. I really can't praise him enough for the quality of work and seamless fit he was throughout the day. He felt like he was part of the family which may sound cheesy but honestly true. We actually had many guests after the wedding comment on how good our photographer was! Highly recommend Duback Photography for your big day or next event!

    Above and Beyond! Made Getting Our Picture Taken Enjoyable and Fun

    We hired Andy for our wedding at The Trailside Inn on July 2, and could not have been happier in our choice. Andy is incredibly professional and definitely knows his craft, he was great at making us feel comfortable in front of a camera and was super friendly and fun throughout the entire day.

    Not only were we impressed by Andy, but many of our guests also remarked on how great he was. Without being invasive, he truly was everywhere (and was our only photographer!)

    We are yet to receive all of our photos as they’re still being edited, but Andy sent us about 40 shots by noon the next day and they were all incredible. For two people that REALLY don’t like getting our photo taken, he really made us look great and took some really creative and fun shots. We keep saying, if this is what he sent for preliminary shots, cannot wait to see the rest after editing. Highly recommend!

    Amazing photographer!

    Andy was so easy to work with! He is friendly and makes you feel at ease. Andy was able to capture all of the shots at our wedding that we were hoping for, and more! Our photos are a great mix of candids and portraits and came out so beautifully. We are very happy and would highly recommend him!

    Thanks so much for writing this, Becca. Thanks, too, for being willing to go out in the rain for the photo you attached. What a great day. So happy for you both!! -Andy

    Wonderful Lake Placid Wedding!

    After looking at Andy's work and then speaking with him, we were instantly sold. He has an amazing work ethic mixed with a super laid back personality which was a great mix for us! We had him not only for our wedding day but also for our welcome party and he did an incredible job. He was very open to the things we wanted but he also had fabulous ideas for incredible shots! Even the guests loved him and said he was the best (there was even a couple who said that followed by "and we've been to A LOT of weddings" haha!)! It was a wonderful experience and we couldn't be happier with our photos! We highly recommend him to anyone getting married in the area!

    Duback Photography's reply:

    Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts, Kim. I had a great time getting to know you and Alex, along with your family & friends. Hope to see you soon! Be well, Andy

    Andy is THE BEST. From the very first email exchange to the moment we received our photos, we've been so happy that we chose Andy to photograph our wedding. Andy is incredibly responsive and helpful - even offering suggestions for hair/makeup professionals when I was having trouble finding someone. He goes above and beyond to make sure that all needs are met and that everyone feels comfortable. He was flexible with a changing timeline and locations for photos, and has such an upbeat and positive attitude. Our guests never felt like they were "in the way" and never felt like Andy was in their way, either! He thoroughly seemed to enjoy being part of our wedding and wanted to make sure everything went as smoothly as possible for everyone.

    ...and then there's the photos! We were so pleased with all of the different shots and the way he captured our personalities, the feel of the day, and so many amazing candid shots (especially dance shots!). He was right out there on the dance floor capturing it all. Plus, we received a slideshow and all of our images in less than three weeks after our wedding. I can't say enough good things about Andy Duback!

    Andy is the BEST photographer. I am beyond happy that we picked him to photograph our special day. He was professional, easy to work with, and provided incredible pictures of the entire day. We originally selected Andy because we really liked his candids. It can seem "easy" to get a great portrait shot, but Andy worked so hard to catch special moments each step of the way AND provided stunning portraits. At times it seems like he was in more than one place at a time by how much he was able to capture! The joy and love we felt from everyone at the wedding, Andy so beautifully captured. If he's available for your date, PICK HIM! Worth every penny.

    It is one thing that our photos were more beautiful than I could have dreamt possible, but another to have been lucky enough to work with such a great human behind the lens. Andy is this tall athletic looking guy who you would normally think would be impossible to miss in a room, yet somehow he was able to get all of these photos while being incredibly discrete, calm, graceful, and unassuming, kind, and efficient. He was amazing with children and adults alike. Andy is incredibly gifted, and his talent is matched by his enthusiasm for photography and commitment to providing a top-quality product for his clients. He holds the bar high as both artist and quintessential professional. He is energetic and you can see every minute that he loves what he does. I have never seen someone work so hard and never imagined how much care and effort he would put into capturing our day. He is not only expert in the portrait planning, but his candids are magical.

    Everything that he put into capturing those photos also left a lasting impression on us. His preparation from meeting with us ahead of time made family portraits go quickly and seamlessly, and we had an awesome array of photos of our friends and family throughout the ceremony and reception, especially those we had named as being particularly important to us.
    We wanted our portraits to showcase the Adirondacks and our love for the outdoors. I have no idea when he managed to do it but Andy brought his hiking boots and scouted a trail ahead of time for the best places for our photos. When we were there, he got down in the moss and dirt for the shot he w

    Andy is simply the best! I cannot begin to describe how happy my husband, my entire family, and all of my friends are with Andy's amazing work. His photos are truly beautiful and really capture so many special moments that we will treasure forever. Andy shot engagement photos, as well as rehearsal dinner and wedding day pictures for us and they are all wonderful. He is very skilled at capturing candids, as well as the more formal portrait-style photos. He also did an exceptional job capturing the beauty of the natural environment.

    We had a lot of young children participate in our wedding and Andy handled the ensuing chaos like a pro. He was so great with the kids and got absolutely wonderful shots of them throughout the weekend. Everyone is so delighted with these photos!

    Not only is Andy's work amazing, but he is an awesome person to work with. He is so easy to talk to and is wonderfully relaxed and easygoing. We hope to have opportunities to work with him in the future!

    Andy is an amazing, talented photography and a really great guy, too. We were worried as a self proclaimed non-photogenic, awkward couple that we wouldn't have great wedding photos. When we met Andy for the first time, he quickly put us at ease and we soon found ourselves joking around. He had a professionalism to him that we appreciated as well. He is organized and thorough and takes his job seriously. The day of he made both of us feel completely calm and helped to make the day truly special. Andy seemed to always be there at every key moment, while at the same time was not getting in the way at all. We did do the fusion option so we also had a cinematographer there and a 2nd photographer. It was worth it! Andy's turn around time for photos and fusion piece was great for a busy wedding season. We knew they would be great (it is our wedding, right?!) but they really were spectacular. We've shared them with many of our friends and family who seem to have the same reaction and add that they feel like they are reliving the day each time they look through them. We feel lucky to have gotten Andy for this important job on our wedding day. You'd be lucky to have him and his team too!

    We selected Andy based on our first phone conservation with him. From the onset, we felt very comfortable with him. We met Andy a few months before our big day and knew we had made the absolute right choice. During the planning process, Andy was responsive and flexible. He listened to what we were hoping for and that showed during our big day. We have since received our photographs and we feel we can keep reliving our day because of all the moments he captured. Andy worked extremely hard from the moment he came to the hotel to the moment he left that evening. Our guests still talk about Andy and how fantastic he was and how hard he was working. He was professional, yet very thoughtful to all of our friends and family. We would recommend Andy to anyone looking for a photographer to capture their special moments.

    Andy, You did such an amazing job photographing our wedding. You were professional, so easy going, and such a welcomed part of our wedding day! It was so great to work with you.

    You can tell how much time and care you put in editing the photographs and we so appreciate it.

    Thank you so much for everything. Looking forward to talking to you throughout the years.

    Dear Andy,
    We want to thank you for the wonderful job you did with our wedding photography. First, you were truly a part of the wedding itself and blended seamlessly into our small group. In addition, the photos are first-rate. We are going to select a large number of them and create a formal album that we can look at together whenever we wish to rekindle the feelings of the day.



    I especially like the personalized wooden USB drive and presentation box....very classy.



    Thanks again for your expertise and camaraderie.

    Aaron and Kathy

    Andy is incredibly professional and creative, from the first day we met him we knew we had to work with him on our special day. He took the time to get to know us as a couple as well as our family and friends. Day of weddings can be stressful, picture multiple grandmothers fighting for photos and counting who got more with the bride and groom..Andy's calming presence truly helped to make the day special and memorable for all of us. Now to the photos., well e-mail me if you want to see my album, CatherineCDale@gmail.com, they were PERFECT, out of a magazine! We are so pleased with the quality of the photos, the number of the photos, working with Andy in hindsight was the most important decision we made through the entire wedding process, besides choosing each other as husband and wife of course. Andy captured so many moments, we had all the posed formals, and Andy had great ideas for each shot but some of my favorites are smiles from on looking family members, Andy pays attention to every element in the photo, there are so many we can't wait to frame. We will be looking at these pictures and grateful to Andy for a lifetime. All of my bridesmaids will be using Andy when they get married. We absolutely recommend!! Please reach out to me if you want to chat further, ask questions or see my photos!

    Andy is a wonderful photographer who works flexibly and seamlessly with the couples' plans and wishes. Most importantly, he's down to earth, friendly, easy to work with and cares both about his work and your (our) wedding day. Lastly, the final package that he put together was not only composed of beautiful photos, but was professionally composed and packaged.

    We can't thank Andy enough for all his work for our wedding. We had multiple conversations with him prior to booking and from the beginning knew he was perfect for our wedding. His thoughtfulness, organizational skills, easy going nature, and sense of humor made everything so easy. It rained the day of our wedding, and Andy's attitude throughout the day made us feel like the day was exactly how it was supposed to be. He literally was able to capture every moment of the wedding, but we honestly didn't even know he was there! I would also recommend his photo booth - one of the biggest hits of the night!

    We would definitely recommend him!

    Andy is wonderful to work with as a photographer. He and his team caught amazing moments through the day. It was such a gift to be able to look back through beautifully crafted images and that also really represented the feelings of our family, loved ones, and the day itself.

    Andy was the photographer for my sisters wedding two years ago (Grand Isle Lake house, Vermont) and we absolutely loved her pictures and he fit in with our family and friends so well. For our wedding, I didn't have to do any searching because I knew that I wanted Andy to be our photographer. We got married on August 29, 2014 in Newport, Rhode Island and we were so lucky to have a beautiful sunny day with a perfect sunset. Our pictures reflected every part of our perfect day with some awesome silhouette and skyline shots. We love our pictures and enjoyed having Andy as a part of our wedding day. All of our friends and family had such wonderful things to say about him as well. I would recommend him to anyone getting married in the New England area!!!

    Andy exceeded all our expectations. As a bride and groom, we weren't able to see all the excitement going on during our wedding day, but Andy captured all those precious, intimate moments and not only of ourselves, but of our guests as well. From the start, Andy does an exceptional job planning and customizing your day to fit your needs. He was loved by our guests and charmed them with his great personality. We will always be able to look back at our wedding day and remember all these precious moments with these amazing photographs. Thank you, Andy!!

    Andy is amazing!!!! My wife, Holly, and I traveled from Atlanta, GA to Burlington, VT to get married. Andy was one of several photographers recommended by The Inn at Shelburne Farms. As soon as Holly and I viewed Andy's work on his website, we both instantly knew he was the photographer we wanted for our special day. Andy ended up taking engagement photos for us two months prior to to our ceremony. He was organized making sure to gather all of the names of the guests that would be in the majority of the pictures as well as preparing picture groupings for the wedding. Andy listened to our thoughts and ideas and made sure he could accommodate our wishes. Our engagement photos and wedding photos were perfect!! We also splurged for the video fusion piece that Andy offers; Andy and Joel's final product was breathtaking. You cannot re-do your wedding so we were beyond pleased with our most precious memories. Thank you, Andy, for being part of our special day and for providing us with our everlasting memories of our fairytale day.

    Andy was absolutely incredible to work with! We are so happy with the outcome and even more impressed and inspired by his dedication and passion for his work. From our first meeting with him, we knew we would be in good hands and we didn't have a thing to worry about. On our wedding day, Andy made sure to stop and see everyone where they were getting ready so as to capture the entire day from start to finish. During cocktail hour, Andy was quick and efficient with our portraits and incredibly kind and thoughtful towards our families and guests. He managed to be in all of the right places at all of the right times and never missed a beat. The photos that we now have in hand are stunning. There is no other way to put it. These photos will help us to remember our wedding day and all of the people we shared it with. If you have the chance to work with Andy, you must! He is incredible!
