    Wedding photographer

    Our photographers did an amazing job with our engagement photos and the day of our wedding. We got a ton of photos. They communicated well and did a great job bringing our vision to life! Highly recommend them!

    Thank you Lindsay, we had a GREAT time at your wedding. Loved your venue (Heronswood Gardens) and you two were super laid back and chill to work with. Thanks for having us!

    Down to earth photographer!

    Amanda was wonderful to work with. She is very down to earth and made sure she understood our personalities. She captured all of the candid moments and the mood of the day is evident in the photos. She was flexible and patient working with my “camera shy” husband.

    Amanda Howse Photography's reply:

    Awwww you're too sweet! You had a lovely wedding (especially considering the re-scheduling that took place) & have married into such a wonderful family. Looking forward to seeing you at the next wedding!!!

    Fantastic photagraper!

    We are so glad we chose Amanda Howse Photography. We got so many photos it was overwhelming and they were all AWESOME. Our photographers were so great to work with the day of the wedding and made us feel so comfortable and we're so glad they did because they came up with great shots! I got a second photographer which I would highly recommend because one took pictures of me getting ready and one took pictures of the groom getting ready that way we got candid shots of both of us preparing for our big day. Choose Amanda!

    Amanda Howse Photography's reply:

    Yay thx!!!! Your wedding was so lovely! I loved the venue & what a perfect day it was, everything was just awesome & having two of us was definitely ideal!

    I got SO many compliments about Amanda

    Out of every vendor I had, I had the most compliments from guests - both friends and family - about Amanda. She was so personable, everyone felt so comfortable around her. She got to know who my maid of honor was by name right away and went to her when she needed assistance. Amanda was also really good at gathering everyone together and sticking to my timeline. I didn't have to worry about who was supposed to be where because Amanda helped gather everyone with the help of my maid of honor. She was there until the very end of the reception taking pictures of everyone having fun. I have so many wonderful photos of my big day because of Amanda.

    TLDR: Amanda is AMAZING. I would recommend her to anyone. She gets to know you and your family/wedding party and helps organize everyone together for photos so you don't have to worry.

    Amanda Howse Photography's reply:

    Thanks Emily! I have had so much fun at your
    Pre-wedding sessions & your wedding getting to know you & Jordan!
    Can’t wait for baby photos! ;)

    Amanda is wonderful! She was so kind and worked with our small budget. She got our engagement photos back to us right before thanksgiving knowing we were traveling and wanted to make sure we had them. She so easy to work with and really knows her stuff!!

    I was very pleased with Amanda's photography. Not only did the photographs come out beautifully, but she was very professional and easy to work with from the start. She even helped me tie up my dress bustle! She contributed to making my wedding day a success and I am so glad we chose her as our photographer. I will definitely recommend her to other engaged couples!

    Amanda is honestly a highlight of my wedding day experience. You can tell she loves her job and will go above and beyond to capture your special day. We did engagement photos with her and she was incredibly flexible about rescheduling around the weather. I hate being photographed, but Amanda has a laid back style and enthusiasm that put me at ease, and the final product speaks for itself. She was great at adding in direction when we needed some guidance (like the proper way to co-cut a cake) and totally open to the wacky and non-tradition photos we wanted too. I've already had guests ask me for her information so they can look into hiring her for their own family photos. I would recommend her to anyone looking to have photos done, wedding or otherwise.

    Amanda was such a pleasure to work with for our engagement photos and on our wedding day. I usually don't feel comfortable taking photos but Amanda is great at making you feel comfortable in front of the camera. I have had people tell me our wedding photos look like they could be in a magazine. We will definitely be using her in the future!

    If you're a bride and groom looking for flawless photos for their wedding, then going with Amanda Howse Photography would be the best pick for your special day.

    Amanda was such a pleasure! She was able to assure me that her work was gold from the moment I met her at a wedding expo. She is so friendly and confident in what she does. During the wedding she was able to work with the flow even when things went off schedule. She has great and reliable communication too.

    When it comes down to the quality of photos, ours were flawless! She was able to get every single shot and every moment of our big day. From the perspective shots of our vows to the crazy dancing at the reception, each photo screams the moment it was caught in. If there was a random photo I wanted under a lamp outside in the RAIN, to when red wine was spilled on my dress, she got every memory effortlessly.

    Overall, Amanda is a wonderful photographer that I will definitely come back to for other photography needs. She's absolutely WONDERFUL and the best that's out there.

    Amanda was fantastic! My wedding pictures turned out amazing, and she was able to find the best locations to take them. She also did a really good job of mixing things up so I was never tired of taking pictures, or felt like I was standing in front of the camera too long. I had such a great time working with Amanda, and I have gotten a lot of compliments about how nice she was and how she seemed to be everywhere all at once. I cannot say enough good things about her. I would very strongly recommend hiring Amanda.

    Amanda photographed our Tree House Point wedding in Issaquah in January 2014. It was a cold, sunny day and the pictures were ethereal, beyond gorgeous. She is THAT photographer that is there for every shot, but you don't sense her being there. This is what makes her so great, the ability to capture not only the light and the physical space, but the ability to capture the emotion among each guest at our small wedding without being intrusive. I referred her to another couple and their photos have the same warmth and intimacy. I recommend her without reservation.

    Amanda is fantastic! I just got my photos (after a super-quick turnaround) and I'm thrilled. I have no idea how I'm going to choose for my album and prints. Beyond the photgraphy, Amanda was great to work with - she had really good insights on planning the day-of timing and was incredibly helpful on the big day. She staged some great photos but nothing ever felt forced or awkward (a feat for my husband and me!). Can't recommend her enough!

    HIGHLY RECOMMEND! COULDN'T BE HAPPIER!
    My now-husband and I have LOVED working with Amanda! She's professional and efficient, but friendly and personal. It was just what we needed for our wedding! We used her for the engagement shoot and an additional family shoot, as well. She is WONDERFUL with children. We have a three year old son and Amanda was very patient with the fact that he is never going to pose! We have loved the pictures from every shoot. They are beautifully captured memories we can't wait to display in our home!

    Amanda was such a lucky find for my husband and I! She blended in so well with our guests that they were asking if she was a friend or family! We even became FB friends after the wedding! She got such beautiful shots, and put us all at ease. I'm extremely camera shy, and make the ODDEST faces because of it. Amanda made me forget we were even taking photos!

    I've since used her again for my son's senior photos this year. It was like catching up with an old friend. Again, some of the best shots I've ever seen, and very fun and relaxing as we wandered around Gasworks Park. She had a lot of options for alternative locations too, in case of rain...which, let's face it, it's gonna happen. This girl knows her stuff!!

    I'm excited to work with her again this February! She's doing my head shots and business photos for the nail studio I just opened! Book with Amanda; she is the BEST!
