You are someone who is excited to get married. You love the idea of a meaningful ceremony followed by a robust celebration with your most treasured people.

When you close your eyes you feel whole and when it comes time to step back into these moments, you crave accurate, endearing and emotional imagery. 

I want all of that, and more, for you.

the intentional couple who craves accurate memories.

Your wedding will have many layers of emotions and meaning. When you look at the photographs that mean the most to you, usually they are of the most intimate moments between you and a loved one. You love them because they are unplanned and unscripted, free to be and not put into a cage of expectations of how it should look.

These moments, these photos mean so much to you, and they will mean so much to me.

a forever student of story telling.

The more I let people be who they are, instead of cramming them into what I need from them, the more surprised I am by their beauty and depth.

A photograph can capture the natural and honest emotion that can be cherished and passed onto future generations. This is why I strive to capture the special moments shared between loved ones in a way that can stand the test of time. 

Amanda wasn’t just the photographer at our wedding, she gave advice, helped with our timeline, was ready with a tissue when the tears came, fixed hair, and captured the most amazing photos. Amanda truly is talented and has a gift for photography. We can’t imagine choosing anyone else to capture the most treasured moments from our wedding day. How lucky are we to get to enjoy these beautiful photos for years to come.

"She made us feel comfortable."

Amanda helped us so much throughout the entire process, which was especially helpful since we were planning our wedding from out of state! We were so grateful for her guidance throughout the entire planning process and when we met her officially on our wedding day we felt like we already knew her. She kept everything going smoothly and had us laughing and having fun during photos which could have otherwise been a stressful.

"She was the perfect photographer for our wedding."

 I am so thankful Amanda traveled to Virginia to be such a intimate part of our wedding day. She captured the most beautiful, honest, and genuinely priceless moments that you just want to hold on to. She made me feel so beautiful and made my husband feel so comfortable. Our wedding day flew by so fast, and she captured every single emotion we wanted to hold on to for years and years to come.

"You can tell she pours her heart into what she does."

Every relationship begins with a hello. This is your way of starting the conversation and from there I ask for some key information before we schedule a call. 

01. inquire

After the inquiry and checking my availability, I will send a link to set up a video call to chat more about the wedding planning thus far and to hear about your needs.

02. consult

After the video call I create a custom proposal, which is an invoice and contract in one document. Once you sign and pay your deposit, you are officially booked. 

03. book

After your wedding is on the calendar, we can begin preparing for an engagement session should you want one. During this session we get to know each other and you as the couple get to practice in front of the camera.

04. engagement session

I am not a wedding planner, but I will always offer up tips and advice when needed. If you need an opinion or ideas for a timeline, let me know. I do encourage all couples to hire a planner who will help navigate their wedding journey.

05. planning

The wedding day will be so smooth. We will have a timeline and clear expectations. I will be there to capture all the emotion and rooted friendships. At the end of the night your cheeks will hurt from smiling and you will feel so loved.

06. wedding day

Roughly eight weeks after your wedding celebration you will have an online gallery delivered to enjoy viewing your wedding day again and again. You will also receive a small gift in the mail to tangibly celebrate. 

07. gallery delivery

From your delivered gallery you will be able to order prints. I will also provide album options from your gallery as you make a favorite image list. I will push to make sure your memories live on beyond the online gallery.

08. order

This will be a day you talk about to your grandchildren. You will laugh at the dance moves, and tear up at the images of your late grandparents. I will forever cherish being your family historian, your storyteller.
