    Amanda is the best!

    My then-fiance now-wife and I fell in love with Amanda's amazing work on her website, and she did not disappoint! She turned our ideas and suggestions into a coherent vision and then executed that vision to perfection! Plus, she was delightful to work with. If you want to look like the best and coolest versions of yourselves, and have a great time in the process, hire Amanda!

    The absolute best!!

    Book. Amanda. Today. You will not be sorry!! She is the kindest, sweetest soul and works real magic. I didn’t even think it was possible, but we loved every single wedding picture she took. She will make you feel so comfortable in front of the camera and if being photographed isn’t your thing similar to how I felt, then you will be blown away with the final product. I can not recommend her enough or say enough good things!

    Magic maker!

    I have so much to say and it still will not fully cover how AMAZING Amanda is. We met with Amanda shortly after moving to Charleston and it was an instant connection. When it came time for our engagement photos, Hurricane Dorian made us reschedule, but it was worth the wait. Our schedules weren't easy to work with, but Amanda was so understanding and quickly found a new date for us to shoot. Even though we connected initially with her, I was super nervous about how things would be once we got in front of the camera. My husband notoriously hates being photographed and I was worried that would reflect in the photos. Wasn't a problem at all. Amanda made us both feel so comfortable in front of the camera that we forgot it was even there and we were just having fun running around on the beach together. None of it was awkward posing or faked candids. 100% real. The wedding day was the same way. I am OBSESSED with every single photo she took. My sister-in-law commented that she's never seen my husband smile in so many photos. My best friend said she loves how happy and in love we look. My brother told us that people always comment on our save the date photo on their fridge and say its one of the best they've ever seen. She's made us feel like celebrities and I can't wait to hang up our photos all over our home. I also can't wait to have another reason to book with Amanda again. She is the BEST.

    A Fairytale Evening

    I was lucky enough to find Amanda online, while planning our destination wedding in Charleston! Her self-description on her website drew me to her: the way in which she wants to capture moments, couples being themselves, not staging/forcing anything, is what really spoke to me. Then I dove into her work, and saw that she had previously shot at our venue, and I was sold! My husband and I met Amanda for a coffee and immediately hit it off: we swapped stories, talked style & what we were looking for, and not looking for, and I knew she would be the perfect person for our big day. She was able to work with our rescheduled COVID wedding date (a HUGE blessing) and it turned out to be a perfect evening. The wedding party LOVED her energy and the way she made you feel so relaxed while photographing. We've gotten ONE picture back so far that is so darn good, I'm not sure how we'll even make it looking through the entire album once it's ready!!! THANK YOU Amanda, you are an incredible talent and I'm so glad you captured our big day!

    The absolute best photog!

    Wow! Where to even start...

    Amanda is simply amazing! I just happened to find her looking for wedding design inspiration on Instagram and the rest was history. She was literally the very first thing I booked for the wedding and I'm so happy I did. She is so warm and makes you feel like you've known her forever which is definitely a huge help if you feel a little awkward in front of the camera like me! She was so professional and just such a nice and thoughtful human! I'm in the creative field so it was important for me to find someone who not only took the basic photos but had a unique artistic style. She captured all of the moments in such a beautiful candid way and I honestly cannot thank her enough!!

    Magical, magazine-worthy photographer

    I wish I had a bigger vocabulary to fully express the level of satisfaction and gratitude we have from working with Amanda. Of all the decisions we made throughout the wedding process, choosing her was by far one of the best ones we could have made. I don't know how she does it, but she truly creates magic.

    I found Amanda from one of her posts on Instagram. I randomly saw it, saved it, followed her, and moved on. I continued looking at other local photographers over the next month or so, but I kept comparing their work with Amanda's, and nothing rivaled it or even came close. I then reached out and set up a phone call with her, and we just clicked from the very beginning. From the very first conversation to the time she delivered the wedding package, it is obviously apparent that Amanda is incredibly passionate and invested in her craft, and every photo shows it. She not only took the obligatory family photos and "You may now kiss the bride" shots (which were stunning and beyond the norm), but she captured some of the sweetest moments with my new husband among the chaos of that day - the quick glances, the sparkles in the eyes, the moments when you think no one is looking. Her magazine-worthy photos are some of my most treasured possessions that I can proudly display in my home, social media, everywhere, forever.

    It's easy for us to say that Amanda is our photographer for life.

    Still in awe of our pictures!

    There are not enough words to describe how much we love Amanda and they way our pictures turned out! She captured all of the big moments of our wedding day but also so many little moments that may go unnoticed. Amanda made us feel so comfortable in our engagement and wedding photos! We couldn't be happier with our experience and cannot recommend her and her work enough!

    One of the best decisions we made!

    Her stunning photos speak for themselves, but I also cannot say enough good things about our experience with Amanda from the moment I reached out to her.
    She was super easy to talk to and be around; she was enthusiastic about understanding our vision and helping to make it a reality, and she was full of helpful info and genuine advice about what to expect/plan for—SO appreciated by a perfectionist of a bride who didn’t want to let anything slip through the cracks and needed that help! At no point did we feel like just another one of many clients; she made us feel so comfortable and captured our engagement and wedding day photos for us in a fun and natural way. Seriously, look no further.

    My Dream Wedding Photographer

    If you're looking for someone that will document all of the love, laughter, and intimate moments during your wedding day Amanda is your girl! She made us feel so comfortable the entire time and we seriously got the most beautiful and amazing photographs from our day! I couldn't have dreamed of a better photographer. She doesn't just look at her clients as "x and y getting married this weekend" but rather takes the time to truly connect with you and become your friend. My husband normally feels REALLY awkward in front of the camera and she made him feel incredibly comfortable and at ease. Oh, and I should add that she shot an entire 10 hour day and delivered a complete wedding gallery in minimal time 3 weeks after she had a baby. Yeah, she's a rockstar. Hiring Amanda was an easy decision for us and honestly, her work speaks for itself, but if you're still on the fence I can promise you that you will not regret it!

    Simply the best!

    We love Amanda! I was drawn to her photojournalism style of photography and the way she captures true raw emotion. She was one of the first vendors I hired because I just knew I needed her to capture us. She shot our engagement photos on Folly Beach and spent 8 hours with us on our wedding day. I didn't realize she was there at some point during our wedding because she slips into the background and is able to take amazing candid photos. We look at our wedding photos everyday and really having the hardest time picking which photos we want to put in frames because they're all SO good! Thank you Amanda! I hope our paths cross again in the future.

    You'd be crazy to hire someone else!

    Amanda is amazing! Obviously the quality of her photos speak for themselves, just check out her site, they're amazing . My favorite part about working with Amanda was how much fun we had with her . Your wedding day can be stressful and if I told you half the stuff we had to deal with on our day you wouldn't believe me so make sure you hire someone you completely trust and have a great time with. Amanda is 100% that person .Gorgeous photos, great responsiveness and you have a great time with her on your special day!

    Perfect! You will not find a better photographer!

    Love Amanda- she is not only insanely talented(!!) but she makes the typically awkward process of taking photos into the most fun and comfortable experience! She will be the best $ you spend!! My husband and I are thrilled with our photos!

    A total goddess of photography

    Not even sure how to write a review that does justice to the experience that we had with Amanda. We were instantly drawn to her work because she is endlessly artistic and creative. While we weren't able to meet Amanda until the day of the wedding (through fault of our own), which in and of itself can be a little nervewracking, we instantly felt like we were talking to a best friend. She was nothing but a dream for my husband and I, who are admittedly camera shy. Our wedding party LOVED her, and to this day lovingly refer to her as "Stevie Picks" because she (Amanda) is as much of a rock & roll goddess - in photographer form, of course. When we received our photos, we were brought to tears by the beauty she captured in EVERY SINGLE MOMENT of the best day of our lives. I look at these photos constantly with as much joy and awe as the first time I saw them. We felt like choosing/finding her was absolute kismet.

    Absolutely Amazing Wedding Photographer

    Amanda was FABULOUS throughout our entire wedding process. She was easy to get in touch with before the wedding to answer all of our questions and made the day so special. She is so relaxed and down to earth. Being as nervous as I was, she did a great job keeping me calm and relaxed throughout the day. We appreciate all of her beautiful work and she made the day flow smoothly. We changed a few things around based on timing and the pictures were even more beautiful than we could imagine. Our wedding was outdoors on a 100 degree day & Amanda was so kind and patient with us. Her work is amazing and we recommend her to anyone. Thanks Amanda!

    Amanda does absolutely STUNNING work. We were introduced to her by our wedding planner in Charleston and fell in love with her photos. We were looking for a more editorial, un-posed look, and Amanda nailed it. She's able to draw out something so special from her subjects, her environment, and the light-- it truly is artwork and she really does have an incredible eye. She's been able to make us extremely comfortable when taking our photos, but with enough guidance so that we're not left completely to our own devices. She's very professional when she's working, and also knows how to make us laugh and smile both on and off camera. We would recommend her a thousand times over.

    It's hard to put into words just how amazing Amanda Seifert is. She was an absolute dream to work with on our wedding day and the days prior. We actually met for the first time over a phone call since my now husband and I were living in San Francisco at the time in the midst of planning our wedding in Charleston (where my folks live).

    Honestly, it just felt like the perfect fit from the beginning. My husband and I were interested in the more candid shots as opposed to taking hours of posed photos which is what attracted us to Amanda’s style in the first place. We were all for giving Amanda free reign to do her thing and boy did she deliver. She did an exceptional job, not only did she capture stunning photos of Joel and I and our wedding party but the simply posed photos she captured of our wedding guests were such a nice surprise. I mean, just gorgeous. We had numerous friends and family come up to us afterwards to tell us how wonderful she was as well, she just has a way of making you feel incredibly comfortable in front of the camera which is a skill in itself.

    Joel and I are both incredibly thankful that we were able to snag her for our big day and would highly highly recommend her to be a part of your big day as well. Our wedding was back in October (this review is long overdue) but I still get giddy every time I look through our photo album. She captured the day and so many wonderful moments perfectly and we’ll cherish these photos forever.

    We had the opportunity for Amanda to take our engagement and wedding pictures-and let me tell you it was nothing short of amazing! She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Not only is Amanda such a sweet and personable girl, but her talents in photography are mind blowing. She captures love so elegantly and effortlessly. When searching for our perfect photographer, many photographers just didn't have everything we were looking for: quality, style, storyline, emotion, etc. When another photographer lead us to Amanda, it was meant to be. We wanted to invest in an amazing photographer because we knew these are memories that we will never get back. She was worth every penny, every mile driven, and every memory that was had with her. She is simply amazing and the best investment that we spent for our wedding ❤️

    I seriously cannot say enough great things about Amanda. We had just moved to Charleston from Oregon and we knew we wanted the location to be somewhere with the beautiful oak trees. She scouted out a bunch of locations and (despite the fact that the mosquitos were crazy in October) she gladly took us through the woods to the most incredible clearing of oak trees to take our photographs. We were all getting swarmed by mosquitos the whole time and you can't tell one bit. It felt like she was our good friend taking the photos and made us feel SO comfortable. Our photos are A M A Z I N G -- better than I even imagined. If you are debating on who to hire for your photographer, you will be lucky to hire Amanda. If we weren't getting married all the way in Hawaii, we would book her in a heartbeat. Thank you for the most beautiful photographs we will cherish forever!

    Amanda was such a nice person and really easy to get along with. She captured everything my husband and I wanted. We got a TON of amazing pictures (like 990 pics) and it was so worth every penny because she captured every moment. The pictures were edited amazingly and everyone was so impressed with them. We are so thankful we found her for our special day.

    Where to begin?! My fiance and I actually ended up with Amanda as our wedding photographer due to a crazy string of events. When our original wedding got postponed due to Hurricane Matthew, we found out that unfortunately our original photographer was unavailable for our new date. Although we were disappointed, that feeling was short-lived when our wedding planner suggested we take a look at Amanda's work. BLOWN AWAY is an understatement. I knew right away that the stars were aligning for us when we spoke to Amanda on the phone for the first time. You could tell she was really passionate about her work and cared about her clients. It was a no-brainer. We booked her as quickly as we could! We are certainly not a cookie-cutter couple, nor were we having a cookie-cutter wedding, so we were looking for a photographer who could deliver something different - more artistic, moody, something that really captured our love and personalities. We've only seen a few sneak peeks at this point, but I can already tell you she was able to do just that. We had a few special requests for photos and she made sure we got to all of them and that they were perfect. She was incredibly efficient, creative, and fun to work with. To top it all off, she's just a damn cool chick! If you're a unique couple looking for a different vibe for your wedding photos, Amanda is your girl! BOOK HER! You won't regret it.

    As soon as I met Amanda, I knew I wanted her to be my photographer (and friend). I was freshly engaged, and the vision of my wedding was blurry but I knew the photography was the most important detail to me. I knew I wanted a photographer who wasn't traditional. One that wouldn't force us into awkward poses. One who would tell me exactly what to do, how to stand and how to not look like a deer in headlights. One who could capture organic, meaningful, real moments without being cheesy. One that would have a creative vision, and one I could trust to say "do what you want". Amanda is all of that and more. She has a confidence in her craft that makes sessions with her not only comfortable, but exciting. My wedding is in 2 months and the way I see it, as long as my groom and Amanda show up, I will be happy :). You will not find better, I promise you.

    Amanda was such an amazing photographer and is an overall amazing person. She is so professional and made me feel at ease the entire time even though I hate taking photographs. Every single picture she took at our wedding is absolutely amazing. Friends and family can't stop telling us how amazing all of the photos turned out. I would highly highly HIGHLY recommend using Amanda as your photographer for any event. She was extremely knowledgable and so helpful during our big day she honestly helped keep my stress level down when family started to get a little rowdy... I could not have been happier with her services and would recommend her to EVERYONE.

    Down to earth amazing photographer

    wow! There are so many words and feelings I have for this incredible photographer. Her work is so inspiring. She is able to capture so many raw emotions within her photos and tell a story too. I look back at my engagement photos and I’m mesmerized by the mood and color she captured within each photo. She was completely accommodating and drove to Asheville from Charleston for the weekend to shoot our photos in the blue ridge mountains at black balsam knob and looking glass falls. Black balsam knobs was sentimental for her because she too had taken photos with her husband there. She made the whole experience so much fun with music and little bottles of champagne. She is so great with directing you and making you feel comfortable in your own skin. My now husband even remarked how she puts you at ease while taking the photos.

    Our wedding photos again were just as gorgeous. She was able to use the light and surrounding Asheville landscape so well while capturing us and family/friends throughout the evening.

    I cannot express enough how great of a photographer she is and her ability to capture each moment.Amanda is so down to earth and professional. She makes planning the wedding easy and fun! Bonus she is a blast to hang out with too! We are both so happy we went with her and would recommend her 100%. We really hope sometime in the future we can work with her again because her photos are so memorable. Thanks Amanda!
