Introduction: Please note: My schedule fills up fast if your looking to book within a month of reaching out. If that is you, please be ready to book when you reach out as it is not possible for me to hold dates. Thanks so much! An artistically infused lifestyle Wedding 。Engagement 。Boudoir photographer serving independent & modern clients all over California and then some. A little about me...years ago I finished school and walked away from my bartending job to become what I’ve always wanted to be; a photographer. Most days you can find me spending time with my cat and dog duo, running countless errands or cooking dinner with my husband. My photography style? It’s engaging, enthusiastic and truly authentic. Sincerely you, is my favorite way to describe it. It’s those little moments when you think no one is watching. My favorite is uncontrolled laughter and secret sexy moments, I’m always looking to have a good time with my clients. I promise to make it easy for you, let’s keep it simple but full of passion and real. Sometimes I use lights, sometimes I keep it natural. Every photo shoot is different and I’ll always promise to create timeless images you’ll cherish forever. Yes I travel(safely)! Travel dates: Santa Barbara Engagement - Jan 15-17th Oregon Wedding - July 24th-26th

We did a boudoir shoot with Amani prior to our wedding and it was fantastic. My wife is normally very shy but Amani helped make her feel comfortable and relaxed. Both of us gained confidence and felt sexy. Amani is amazing at selecting poses. Even though the boudoir shoor was definitely out of our "normal", our photos made it look like we were naturals at it. Who knows, maybe we are but I think it has more to do with Amani's skill. We enjoyed working with her so much and now have a set of tastefully sexy photos. We highly recommend her.

Amani Photography's reply

Hi Sayan! I had so much working with you two, thanks so much for your review. I love to hear about positive experiences especially during boudoir shoots. Looking forward to seeing you at Sebastian and Alanna's wedding next year!

I have worked with Amani on many projects and consider each one of them a success. We have collaborated on small scale 1:1 shoots as well as large events. Her photo booth experience is a particular favorite among my event attendees. She has a thoughtful, comprehensive approach that focuses on capturing the moments that matter most. I would absolutely recommend Amani for anyone looking for a professional to visually document an important event in their life, and I would absolutely hire her again for future shoots.
