Testimonials

“Amanda was one of the best parts about our wedding…”

My husband said the day after our wedding, “Amanda was one of the best parts about our wedding,” and he was absolutely right. Our photographer, Amanda, was excellent. She was there early to photograph our hours of getting ready, and was upbeat and so positive throughout the entire day. She was relaxed and made us feel at ease during photos. She was lovely to work with throughout the entire process, organized, and quick to respond. -Ali /… Read more

“She did an incredible job capturing the beautiful scenery as well as letting our personality shine…”

Amanda’s work is amazing! She took our engagement photos in the fall of 2017 and our wedding photos June 2018. Both locations were outdoors and she did an incredible job capturing the beautiful scenery as well as letting our personality and relationship shine through in the photos. Amanda is so enjoyable to work with, she quickly understood the style of photos and poses we wanted and made both … Read more

“We had such an amazing experience…”

I just want to thank you for being not just our photographer, but an amazing person. We had such an amazing experience and I am so glad we picked you to take our pictures that will forever be cherished. Thank you! -Wendy  //   Wedding   |   See their wedding…

“Creative, talented, and works well with her clients…”

Is there a 6 star rating? If there was, I would chose it. Amanda is creative, talented, works well with her clients, is responsive and a true artist. She went above and beyond my expectations. I would recommend Amanda to everyone and anyone who is looking for a true professional. She made a special moment truly magical. I am incredibly grateful. -Julie  //  Elopement  |  See their elopement…

“Truly you have a great eye…”

I wanted to compliment you. I’ve been in the media business for a long time and around photographers and I want to tell you how wonderful your photos are. Of course I am biased- but truly you have a great eye. The composition is wonderful. And I saw the lighting and the cluttered atmosphere at the Opera House and was amazed at what you pulled off. Congratulations. -Susan // Groom’s Aunt  | See their wedding…

“Breathtaking…”

If I had one word to describe Amanda’s pictures it would be breathtaking. Not only are her photos absolutely stunning, she is so much fun to work with. I have gotten so many compliments on the photos she took and I am so happy to have these wonderful images to cherish for the rest of my life! -Jena  //  Engagement & Anniversary Photos

“We didn’t want her to leave at the end of the night!”

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 such a cool person and really fun to hang with 🙂 We didn’t want her to leave at the end of the night! – Beth // Wedding  |  See their big day…
We had to cancel our wedding due to COVID and decided to elope last-minute. Amanda was incredible! She responded within minutes and we were able to “meet” her virtually to discuss our vision. Amanda is friendly, professional, and made us feel comfortable instantly. She collaborated with us to create the perfect vision for our elopement day. When we got the photos, my husband said, “She made us look like models!” She really did. We were able to buy printed photos from Amanda’s website for great p… Read more
“Amanda was amazing! We were so excited to receive the link to her gallery app less than 24 hours after our wedding. This made it so easy to show off our pictures to friends and family. Her work is beautiful and I would definitely hire her again!” -Ali  //  Wedding   |   See their wedding…

“Everything and more than we could ask for…”

Amanda was everything and more than we could ask for! She was willing to go above and beyond, and she had a great spirit throughout the whole day even with the unexpected weather turning for the worse. I would recommended to her any bride that is looking for a responsible, accountable, and fun photographer on her special day 🙂 Kristine – Wedding  //  See their wedding…
