“Amanda was so great! She responded very quickly to my inquiry about her availability and had great suggestions about where to take photos and was available to help guide us with outfit choices and her Pinterest board for inspiration. She was punctual when meeting for our photos and so kind and skilled at capturing our kids’ attention and smiles. If we are in the Carlsbad area again we would definitely rebook with her. Thank you Amanda for capturing these special moments for us! We couldn’t be happier with how the photos turned out after editing as well.”

“Amanda is an outstanding photographer based in the San Diego area. The photos of my fiancée and me turned out beautiful from our shoot at the Carlsbad cliffs. Despite the challenging windy conditions, Amanda skillfully positioned us for numerous wonderful shots, resulting in many fantastic photos. We were thoroughly impressed with the outcome of the edited photos and highly recommend her for engagement photos. Amanda is not only highly skilled in photography but also friendly and communicative. Thank you, Amanda!”

“This was our first time taking pictures with Amanda and she was fantastic! We have two little boys (4 and 2) and it’s very difficult to get them to cooperate. Amanda would give a few directions for the boys or get their attention with the stuffed monkey around her camera and then she would just go with it and capture pics of the boys from different angles. She was very flexible with them. She also gave us specific posing instructions that felt natural and fun. She was also open to requests if we wanted a shot from a certain angle. It was pretty windy that day and I was worried about my hair but the shots still came out beautifully. Her style of photography heavily depends on natural light and I love that. She took a variety of shots close up and further away to capture facial expressions and the scenery around us. She is a very talented photographer and we’re really happy with the pictures she took of our family!”
