Romantic Wedding Photography that blooms from real moments

For the easy-going, playful couples who want beautiful, natural photographs without feeling like they're spending their wedding day in front of a camera.

My approach is rooted in genuine connection, quiet observation, and the moments that make your day uniquely yours. I'll guide you when needed, step back when it matters, and give you the freedom to be fully present with the people you love.

My Granddaughter used Amanda for her recent wedding. I was so impressed with her and her husband. They were so unobtrusive, but were right on the spot for capturing all the important photos. When Mikaela shared her photos with me I was blown away at the quality. I would recommend using her for all your photo needs!

  • For weddings within 1 hour of Brookings, all my travel costs are included in my package price. For multi-day or destination weddings, additional charges will apply.

  • Depends on your package, guest count, vibe of the wedding. I don't aim for a set number, just make sure not to leave out moments that you want and that matter most to you. 

  • Choosing your wedding photographer is such a personal decision and connection is just as important as loving a portfolio. The best way to know if I’m the right fit is by us having a call so we can chat about your plans, what matters most to you and how you want your day to feel and what it might look like for us to work together. My goal is that our call feels valuable and supportive for you, whatever you decide next.

  • Not at all, and there is no expectation from me for you to be anything but yourselves. Although my approach is more candid + documentary-focused, I do offer gentle direction, prompts and guidance to help you feel supported and the photographs feel relaxed and cinematic.

Amanda was sunshine and warmth in a person! From the very start with inquiring, she has been the quickest and easiest person to communicate with. She takes the most beautiful candid photos and truly displays your love but her portfolio speaks for itself. I will forever cherish the photos she delivered to us!
