Amanda is an amazing photographer, not only have I worked with her professionally doing elopements, I have had her photograph my sons senior portraits and photograph my new business. She helped do a styled shoot to promote my little chapel and I was able to use her photos to create my website and business cards.While working with Amanda, she is always professional, on time and together our ceremonies have been magic. Having her do my promotional photos was such a blessing, she had all the extra touches and suggestions that made the styled shoot go smoothly and the photos are fantastic on my site. She is one of the most talented photographers I work with and am thankful she helped with my promo photos as her knowledge in keeping things moving along with out being rushed helped everyone feel at ease, which showed in the photos as well.

We were randomly paired with Amanda through Simply Eloped, an elopement service we used, and wow, did we hit the jackpot! Amanda was fantastic! Her bedside manner put my partner and me at ease and made our wedding photoshoot super fun and exciting. Plus, her work is absolutely exceptional and truly captures the spirit of your big day. If you're reading this, stop hesitating and hire Amanda!

She helped us create a timeline that fit perfectly with our day, found a gorgeous spot for our ceremony, and when the big day arrived, she made everything feel relaxed, fun, and absolutely magical.Not only did Amanda capture stunning photos that perfectly reflect our happiness and the beauty of our day, but she also made the experience unforgettable. She blended in effortlessly with our families and friends, felt like a true friend herself, and made sure even our pups could be part of the celebration.Thanks to Amanda, our wedding day was everything we dreamed ofmemorable, joyful, and perfect. We are beyond grateful for her talent, kindness, and care. If you are looking for someone who will make your elopement or wedding truly special, we cannot recommend Amanda enough!
