Forget the stiff poses and the pressure to perform. Instead, let's step into a slower rhythm - where time stretches out just enough for you to breathe, to play, to be together exactly as you are.
That's where the magic lives.
I do family sessions s little differently. It's not about forced smiles or perfect hair. It's about the movement, the laughter, the quiet moments in between. It's about letting your kids be wild and wonderful, about embracing the chaos and the calm, and witnessing the beauty that naturally unfolds.
What matters to me is your connection - the way you reach for each other without thinking, the way your child leans into you when they're tired, the spark in your eyes when you laugh together. These are the things that deserve to be remembered.
I'm drawn to the tiny, fleeting moments you may not even notice. The ones that speak volumes about who you are and how deeply you love. My goal isn't just to take beautiful photos - it's to give you a reflection of the joy, tenderness, and story that's already within your family.
"From the start it was a very smooth and easy going process. I was a bit hesitant/worried about getting good shots with my little one, being that he is almost two and does not sit still, but the pictures came out so perfect! She was able to capture the most natural shots between the three of us. I feel like these pictures could not have captured our family any better! We will definitely be back when our newborn joins us!"
"I love in the moment pictures more than posing, because it allows us to really show everyone how we really are, and it really captures the most genuine moments! I'm so glad I was able to get her to take these pictures. I had nothing in mind on how and where to take these, but she took charge and nailed it. If you need someone fun, creative, and patient, give her a shout!"
"The best/easiest photographer I've ever worked with, especially when working with my little one! She was so gentle and patient with him and still managed TO KILL our photoshoot. And gave me a multitude of amazing photographs. Highly recommend her!"
"Amanda's creation far exceeded what I had envisioned for my little girl's photos. I sometimes have a difficult time portraying to people what I have pictured, but she understood the assignment and passed with flying colors! My family, friends and I couldn't be more impressed with the final outcome. I will charish these precious moments forever! Only hire this professional if you expect to be wowed!!"
Let's wander a little. Get messy. Be real. And create something unforgettable together.
Sessions starting at / $400
Cue the music, pop open a beer, go exploring, dance in the living room, fire up the hay equipment, be present, do your thang. As a mother myself, I know how hard it is to get everyone to "cooperate" all at once. I’ll provide prompts to help you get comfortable (no need to worry about what to do with your hands), but mostly we’ll just hang out and let the magic happen.
It’s not just about the day you show up for photos. We’ll start working together from day one to provide insights, resources, location ideas, planning tips, styling guidance, and timelines so that when you get to your session date, you’ll get to live fully in the moment.
I am so excited to connect with you! I'll be in touch within 2-4 business days!!
