Hi! I'm Amanda
Homeschooling mother of three, wife, sister, friend, photographer.
My passion for photography started in high school, and my sister, brother, and mom had to endure lots of little "photo sessions" as I explored that interest with a cheap digital camera.
Fast-forward and my husband purchased my first DSLR for my birthday the year we got married. It was a huge gift for a newlywed college students, but it changed my life. I quickly fell in love with portrait photography and photographed my first wedding in 2011. It's hard to believe it's been almost 15 years since that first wedding day!
Your wedding day is about far more than beautiful images. It is about your relationship, the people who love you most, and the story you are celebrating together. My goal is to help you feel comfortable, cared for, and truly present from start to finish. I’m there to bring a calm, joyful energy, keep things feeling natural, and gently guide you when nerves pop up. More than anything, I want you to feel supported and free to enjoy your day as it naturally unfolds!
I believe the most meaningful photographs come from real connection and trust. That is why I take time to get to know you, learn what matters most to you, and pay attention to the quiet moments in between. From emotional exchanges during your vows to carefree laughter at the reception, I focus on documenting the genuine feelings of your LaGrange wedding day. Years from now, I want you to look back and remember not only what your day looked like, but exactly how it felt!
...with JOY!

I worked along side Amanda for a wedding this past weekend as the event coordinator. She showed up early, stayed late, and had an edited sneak ready first thing in the morning for the bride! She has so many amazing ideas for photos and didn’t mind letting the content creator snap a quick shot before moving on. I had to drag her and her assistant down to take a break and eat, haha! We also love a queen who tags her fellow vendors! Thanks for everyone Amanda, I can’t wait to work together again!

"Amanda was absolutely brilliant to work with! "
She was kind, thoughtful and attentive to every one of our needs. From the engagement shoot to the wedding day, she captured our relationship beautifully. From the first time we spoke, she immediately understood my vision and worked tirelessly to ensure it came to life. She communicated with me constantly leading up to the wedding and was a calming and reassuring presence the day of...Our pictures turned out beautifully and we will cherish them forever. Our wedding season was enhanced significantly by choosing Amanda as our photographer!

"We had so much fun and will definitely use her again in the future."
The turn around time for our pictures to get back to us was surprisingly fast as well. I even had a previous photographer friend of mine ask me who did my pictures because they turned out so good. These are seriously some of my favorites pictures of our family. If you’re trying to decide if you should give Amanda a call, don’t hesitate any longer. She is so sweet and you will have a great experience!

"I would choose her again every time!"
Amanda was a pleasure to work with from start to finish...Amanda went above and beyond for us! She was prompt in responding, checked in on us leading up to the wedding, helped us coordinate our wedding day photo timeline, and traipsed around downtown Birmingham with us on a hot June afternoon to shoot the most stunning wedding photos. The photos are amazing and her work absolutely speaks for itself. Her uplifting attitude made our wedding day less stressful and I would choose her again every time!

"I can not recommend Amanda enough!"
She took graduation pictures of my son at Auburn. Amanda went above and beyond and got the most stunning pictures! She thought of places throughout campus that I had not thought about. I’m so thankful for the time she took with him and for her experience! The pictures were incredible!
