Best photographer!

We were recommended to use Amanda through a friend and we are so glad we did! Amanda has such a calm, sweet and sincere demeanor. We first met her at our engagement picture shoot and we planned to only do an hour, but Amanda wanted to make sure we had the best possible photos and we ended up staying 2 hours! On our Wedding Day-Amanda was the true MVP. She helped keep me calm and made sure we stuck to the schedule. Her and her second photographer worked so seamlessly together and we know they got the coolest shots. Amanda is beyond a wedding photographer. She offers advice, insight, and even bustled my dress for me! We are so excited to see our wedding photos! We will definitely use Amanda again in the future!

Gorgeous Photos

We are so happy that Amanda was our photographer for both our engagement and wedding photos. We were blown away with how incredible our engagement photos came out and knew our wedding photos were going to be amazing. Amanda has a very calming presence and a very high attention to detail. Even many of our guests commented that our pictures are going to look amazing because of her attention to the tiniest things when taking our photos. You will not regret booking Amanda as your photographer.
