Whether you're eloping just you two on a canyon rim, getting married in front of your 90 closest humans, wanting gorgeous photos just because, or renewing vows on your 20th anniversary — you're in the right place.
I specialize in celebrations that feel intentional. I work with LGBTQ+ and off-beat couples, non-traditional thinkers, and anyone who'd rather design their day around what they want not what they're supposed to do.
Ways to Work Together
Couples photos can be a surprise proposal, engagement session, vow renewal or a photo session just for fun! Explore the options:
Couples
From larger weddings to micro weddings, packages are as unique as your celebration to fit your needs.
Weddings
Elopements and intimate wedding coverage spans short-and-sweet to full day celebrations. Whether you already have a plan or need total guidance to craft your dream day, I got you.

Photography + Planning for Couples Creating Off-Beat Celebrations That Actually Feel Like Them
Whether you're eloping with just the two of you or gathering your 30 favorite humans, I help couples in Colorado & Moab create non-traditional wedding experiences that feel intentional, authentic, and entirely yours—with photos that take you right back.
No hiking 14 miles sweating in your suit. No performative traditions. No expectations dragging you down. Just 14+ years of local expertise helping you craft a day you'll actually want to relive.
I'll help you craft a great time - without the stress (or the sweat)
about me
hi, I'm amanda
she/her
I've been helping couples navigate the beautiful chaos of planning and photographing elopements across Colorado's Western Slope and Moab, Utah since 2015 (started the business in 2012!)
I believe your wedding day should feel as good as it looks—which means comfortable, intentional, and entirely stress-free.
Whether you need someone to guide you through the entire planning process or just want a photographer who gets it, I'm here to make sure your day unfolds exactly the way you envisioned.
When I'm not helping couples plan and document the day of their dreams, you can find me drinking an iced chai and binge watching Gilmore Girls or Grey's Anatomy!

Amanda was the best decision we made for our wedding day! The photos are exceptional and perfectly capture the scenery and vibe we were going for, but that’s only a portion of what Amanda provided.
"the best decision we made"
-Allison & Ethan
Amanda is the perfect wedding photographer. The photos perfectly captured the whole day and I feel like I can easily relive it just by looking back at the photos. I highly recommend Amanda.
"The Perfect Wedding Photographer"
-Beth & Dustin
We used Amanda for our wedding and she is the BEST! Our photos turned out amazing and she captured the feel of our night perfectly. She’s also really fun to hang with. We didn’t want her to leave at the end of the night!
"She captured the feel of our night perfectly."
- Kylie & Murat
Amanda did an amazing job on our elopement photos! She was incredibly organized during all the planning and sent incredibly helpful tips and ideas in the months leading up.
"Incredibly organized & helpful"
