About Andrea (pronounced on-dray-uh)
          I began my artistry as a child, always drawing faces, starting with the eyes. Somehow the eyes were what made art for me, they drew me in and told me the story that was to unfold. I kept my love of art as I grew up, alway dabbling in this or that. All those years I was searching for something, and it was a while before my calling would come to me.
          I went to design school at UNCG and shortly after married my college sweetheart. Being a lover of math and art, I was desperate to find the perfect blend to make my life complete. With Interior Architecture I thought I would find that perfect combination, but for me there was only harsh lines and cold solid spaces. I was still looking for those eyes, that soulful song singing in the distance.
          Within a few years I had my first life-changing experience. All the things I had always been dreaming up suddenly fell into place as I held my daughter in my arms for the first time, and fell deep within the pools of her eyes. I never knew that soulful song was the singing of a lullaby, and the eyes... the spirit of a child. It finally made sense to me.
          Having some experience with photography from design school and some time spent in the dark room, I began my new search. This song was still calling to me, as it ever does now, to find the perfect moment, and I find myself still drawn to capture the eyes and spirit of a child.
          After years of design, and two years of photographing my own child, my second child was on the way. The second step in that journey of motherhood. This time, I held a son at that crowning moment and again my life took another step towards completion. Within 6 months of having my son, I began to take my life experiences: Art, design, photographing, joy, and motherhood... and combine them into one complete passion, Andrea Halsey Photography.
          When I photograph your child and your family, I will bring all of that experience with me. There is so much more than just a camera and some skill... it is a lifetime of exerpiences that you and I both share, to bring us to a beautiful and artful moment. Together, we will cherish it forever.
