Testimonials

Not only is Amanda a talented and creative photographer, but she was so easy and flexible on the day of our maternity shoot. It was during Cherry blossom madness last year and I was very pregnant and requested a last-minute location change. She didn’t bat an eye and made it all happen flawlessly. The pictures are amazing!

“Amanda has a wonderful demeanor and she is amazing with kids. We’ve done two sessions with her, and each time she brought different props and new tricks to get our boys to smile. Photography sessions with her are so fun, it’s easy to forget you’re taking pictures! I think her ability to help her clients relax helps them take better photos. She was able to capture the essence of our life with our 3 and 1 year old sons perfectly, and this will be a special memory for years to come. If you’re nervous about lighting, clothes, your posing, or whatever, she has lots of suggestions to ensure you get the photos you want!”

I can’t get over our album! I had an idea in my mind of what I wanted and Amanda captured it perfectly, painlessly, and quickly! Our shoot felt like it flew by yet every photo was a masterpiece. I will use her again and again and will recommend her to EVERYONE I know! Thank you from the bottom of this mama’s heart!
