About

Hi!

I’m Amanda, a documentary wedding photographer. I have always been enamored with street photography, it tugs at my photojournalist heart strings. Then…weddings happened.

I have been professionally photographing weddings since 2008, and I was happy to step out and start my own studio in 2012!

I document gorgeous, meaningful weddings, and I’m fortunate that my clients come back to let me keep telling their story with fun maternity sessions, sweet newborn sessions and playful family sessions. I’m crazy happy about my job!

A little about me…I love:

*photography (obviously, that’s why you’re here!)

*espresso

*traveling

*glitter

*music

*books

*meeting new people

I hope you’ll contact me and let me tell your story!

Amazing! Love amanda!

Amanda was amazing!!! She talked with me before hand and really helped explains how the whole wedding would go when I was just beginning my wedding planning process! She is very flexible and easy to work with. Not to mention her photos are GORGEOUS! Her professionalism the day of the wedding from the way she looked (she was dressed nice, my mom really appreciated that!) to how she kept photo time moving was top notch! Love her!!

So Happy We had Amanda photograph Our Wedding!!

I can not even say how happy I was with Amanda throughout the whole wedding process. We had a COVID rescheduled wedding and I was able to find Amanda about 7 months before our day. From the beginning Amanda was so easy to work with and responsive to my many questions. We had several zoom calls and emails back and forth to have everything lined up before (which was great for my type A planning brain!!) The day of though-- WOW! Amanda was so helpful through it all. We had rain, flooding and everything in between so yes plans had to be changed and Amanda was able to help and point everyone in the right direction. Through out our Wedding, all of my guests were saying how nice and great she was too! Then we have the pictures themselves: love, love, love!! I am beyond happy with how they turned out and all the special moments she was able to grab for us. Thanks again Amanda!!

Stunning Moments Captured Perfectly

I stalked Amanda on Instagram and loved her style immediately. Her photography is classic and elegant, and she does an incredible job capturing the little in-between moments that we otherwise would forget in the day. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she is also so friendly and easy to talk to. She was responsive to ideas and got on great with our other vendors to make for an easy-going day for our wedding. I flip out everytime I look at our pictures, and can't wait to get them printed and on the walls to gawk at err'day. Highly recommend Amanda!

Gorgeous photos and a dream to work with

As a fellow wedding vendor, my catering company been working with Amanda for many years. On site, she is personable and friendly and anyone would be thrilled to have her by their side on their wedding day. She captures both the beauty and the life of every event she shoots. I would highly recommend Amanda!

Incredible photographer!

Simply put, Amanda is AMAZING!
Looking for a photographer to capture special moments is difficult! My husband and I looked around for some time and honestly didn’t click with anyone...then i found Amanda on Instagram, and it was a match made in heaven. I knew cause we both love dinosaurs and pandas!
She set up a Skype call with us and we just bonded! We hired Amanda to photograph our wedding!
She did Our engagement pictures which came out SO beautiful! This only made us even more excited to have her at our wedding!
Our wedding was done differently due to Covid but it was so perfect. The pictures were amazing, shes sooo incredibly sweet and makes you feel so comfortable! (This is huge cause I felt like Amanda was a friend taking our pictures and took the stress and feeling awkward away)
With Amanda, you not only get beautiful pictures you will treasure for a lifetime, but you also get a friend!
I cannot wait for her to capture more special moments for us!
Thank you Amanda for being wonderful!!

Sweetest person who gets things DONE.

Our venue gave us a list of recommended photographers, and I didn't realize picking Amanda out from the list was one of the best decisions we made for our whole wedding. She invited us to her home to get to know her and her work (and serve us cheese!) -- which was the sweetest gesture and a great move because once you meet her I don't think you could go with anyone else. We aren't exactly pose-for-photo kind of people, and she made us feel super comfortable and lovely during the engagement session and on the wedding day. She's the sweetest person who also just gets things DONE. She was super flexible with my wild and time-challenged family, and captured some of the most incredible moments. I was a little worried I would regret not hiring a videographer, but once I saw Amanda's shots, I felt like she captured exactly how the wedding felt. I feel super lucky she was part of our day!

The best decision you can make for your wedding

Amanda Review

Weddings are stressful and hard… this is a universal truth and also the reason you want Amanda on your team for this occasion. Me and my husband Alex came across Amanda’s work when an old college friend of mine posted her wedding pictures online. The way Amanda captured the gorgeous fall colors and little romantic moments made her really stand out from the other wedding photographers I saw on Instagram. We immediately set up an appointment to meet with her and see if she would be the right fit for our wedding (spoiler alert: she was). Not only is Amanda a talented photographer, she is someone who put my mind at ease throughout the whole wedding planning process (which lasted over a year in our case)! Amanda is fun to work with and brings out the absolute best in the people she’s photographing. By the time our wedding rolled around I was so happy to have Amanda there because she felt like a true friend to me, not just someone taking pictures of our big day. From the start, my husband and I knew that candids were the most important pictures for us to have from our wedding which is something we spoke to Amanda about. The photos she delivered to us were better than anything we could have ever imagined. To this day, friends and family members still reach out to tell us just how much they loved our wedding pictures. One of my bridesmaids even booked Amanda to do her newborn shoot (those pictures were pretty darn good too). Aside from marrying the love of my life, hiring Amanda was the second best decision we made for our wedding. I will never take professional pictures with anyone else.

Look No Further!

Photography was one of the most important aspects of our day. I wanted to be able to look back at our vow renewal and feel the emotions I felt that day. As my husband and I look back on our pictures, tears spring to our eyes as we remember the wonderful and crazy things that happened that day. From the moment I first reached out to Amanda, I knew she was the right photographer for us. Not only does she know how to capture an amazing image, she makes you feel at ease, plus you get an awesome new friend out of the deal too! If you're looking for an amazing photographer to enjoy your memories for years to come, look no further. Amanda is your girl!

Perfection!

where do i begin?
my late sister was a professional photographer, and I was sure that NO ONE in the world could match her vision; so choosing a photographer for my wedding was going to be a task. I did my research and was referred to Amanda. we spoke on the phone, and we clicked immediately! she heard my story, and felt my vibes, and on my special day delivered more than I could have even imagined: PERFECTION
she made me and my whole wedding party feel like models, she gave us comfortable directives to create stunning photos, and captured every moment that each time I look at the photos, I get to relive that day (which I don't actually remember most of).
my family, friends, guests, everyone is captured just so that I feel I am back there in those moments!
Amanda you are gifted in your talent, and I cant say enough thank yous for this most perfect gift!
you are worth every red cent, and more!
these photos will cover the walls of our home forever!!!!
