About
Hi, I’m Amanda. I’ve been a professional photographer since early 2010 and I still love what I do. I started out photographing horses and naturally grew into capturing weddings, events, and portraits. With 16 years in business as a one-person studio, you’ll always work directly with me—from planning your session to delivering your final images. I take real pride in my work and pay close attention to the details that matter most to you. Whether you’re planning a wedding or need portraits that feel authentic and personal, I’m always excited for a new challenge. Send me a message—I’d love to hear your ideas and see how we can bring them to life.

We booked Amanda to photograph our 10-year anniversary shoot at Dangberg Home Ranch Historical Park, and she delivered everything we hoped for. She got all the classic shots — the kiss, rings, and dip — plus tons of candid moments that feel genuinely us. What impressed us most was how she used the surroundings: the ranch buildings, open fields, and the Sierras all came together beautifully in her photos. They look real, not posed.

Amanda made the whole experience easy and fun, and the results speak for themselves. We’d trust her with any future shoot in a heartbeat.
