Amanda is awesome! I made a last minute request for facepainting at my daughter's birthday party, she responded promptly and arrived on time. The kids loved her facepainting and nail polish. Amanda was busy them the whole 2 hours and even went a lot overtime without complaint. She even brought a surprise present for my daughter. We highly recommend her and would hire her again in a heart beat!

FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When working with a new client, I really want to get to know you on a personal level because photography is a personal and intimate experience. We will dive deep into the goals of the photo shoot, comfort levels, past experiences, and other preferences. This helps me cater to your needs whether that is providing posing prompts, preparing props, or even providing outfit recommendations.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I have always been passionate about art, design, and anything where I can tap into my creative side. I took a few college photography courses and was instantly addicted. I absolutely love capturing and creating memories that you can look back on in 20 years and remember it like yesterday.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I’ve worked with a variety of clients from families with small children, one-on-one lifestyle portraits, professional headshots, and even large events.
