Amazing Photography with one of the best !

Amanda did an amazing job . We weren’t an easy group to wrangle but her itinerary kept most everyone on task . She takes beautiful pictures and definitely worth every Penny. She is kind, and very easy to work with. Made everyone feel comfortable. I would highly recommend her for any of your photography needs. They are top notch ! Thanks Amanda for spending our special day with us and capturing some very endearing moments! Memories for a lifetime ! Emily and Tim Gardner Sept 1, 2023

Best Wedding Photographers Ever

My wedding day would not have been the same without Elegant Illusions Photography. Amanda and her second photographer not only captured amazing, once in a lifetime photos, but they also helped keep us on track and keep me level headed during the entire day.

I cannot recommend Amanda and her company more. She will stop at nothing to make sure your day is perfect!
