Why Hire Amanda?

I take what I do seriously

I'm well aware that I can't re-shoot your wedding and I take responsibility seriously. I arrive to the general area of weddings EARLY and I get your location and scout it out. I'm completely prepared and ready to shoot on time. I always carry back up camera and lenses.

I get to know you before the wedding day

I recommend doing a phone consultation when booking and doing another week or two before the wedding. I want to learn about your wedding and what you have in mind.

You'll enjoy your day working with me!

I shoot in a way that all you to enjoy your day while getting a good mix of photo styles. I spend the majority of the time taking photojournalism style images where you don't have to do any posing. During the group shots, I'm quick and organized.

I understand that editing is important as shooting.

The editing part on your photos is started by my staff graphic artists and then I do FURTHER editing. I spend time working with your images just like a photographer would have in the darkroom. Shooting is only half the job. It's the extensive editing that adds polish to professional photos.

I offer high end photography with FAIR and UP FRONT pricing!

I do both large and small scale weddings. See the wedding photography rates page for detail . There are never hidden costs. I believe in being up front about my prices and making it easy for couples to find something that fits.

I'm always willing to show you complete events.

I always have complete events online. It's important to view whole weddings by photographers you are considering! Viewing whole weddings really gives you an idea how someone shoot. Highlights just show photographers general style.

I am focused before, during and AFTER you event!

I enjoy what I do! I take a limited number of weddings per month in order to provide a great customer service to my wedding couples! I provide finished images and albums in a reasonable timeframe (4 - 5 weeks).

I make booking easy!

It takes just 15 minutes! If you have decided that you are interested in having me document you wedding day, please give me a call. I fill a contract FOR YOU (just select a shoot from my rates page). You simply review the contract, email it back and read a credit card number to lock in you date! If you are just getting started, that's ok too. Please call me anytime to visit anytime about your wedding.
