Kind Words

“Amanda photographed by brother and sister-in-law’s wedding as well as our family photos during my graduation from years back. Not only are the photos incredibly beautiful, my entire family always thinks about how amazing and comfortable she made us feel. When it came time to choose a photographer for our small wedding, there was no other person that had considered other than Amanda. She kept our fingers crossed that she would be available (and was SO happy that she was)!”
