Time moves quickly. Family and couple sessions give just enough time to slow down and take a little piece of the current moment with you.

The whole family together finally. The engagement session you've been waiting for. Becoming first-time parents. 

So. Many. Milestones. 

My heart is to capture them like a memory in the making.

Let's slow down

"We had such a great experience with Amanda! I would highly recommend her to others. Amanda captures the ordinary and makes it extraordinary with her expert eye for beauty. Amanda’s fun and disarming personality makes it easy to pose for pictures. Amanda can work with few props or makeup and still find creative ways to make the end result pictures fabulous. Amanda helped us to remember a precious season in our family as we welcomed our newborn. We will always be grateful to Amanda for capturing the beauty of our lives."

These sessions can be up to 90 minutes. We'll go to a location that is meaningful to you or I'll give you some recommendations on places that match the feeling you want to capture. 

All sessions include the following: 


All about your session.

+ Sneak peeks within 48 hours

+ 80 fully edited images in a private online gallery, delivered within 3 weeks

+ Your own online print store, so you can order prints straight from your gallery

These sessions are for bottling up whatever season you're in. The engagement season bliss. The last few months before you become parents. The first year in the new house. The two under two craziness.

The best couple and family photos to me look lived-in, candid, and in the moment. If that resonates with you, you're definitely in the right place. 

IF YOU'RE CELEBRATING A SEASON WORTH REMEMBERING, YES.

First, send me over an inquiry so I can make sure I'm available, next we'll grab a time for a quick call. I want to hear about you and what you'd love this session to be, and we'll pick a date together.

Then I'll send over your contract and invoice. Once your retainer is in, you're booked.

Short and sweet.

Three STEPS, AND YOU'RE BOOKED.

Some of my favorite galleries have come from the couples who said they were awkward. I'll guide you the whole way, so you have nothing to worry about.

You'll get a styling guide after booking, and I'm happy to look over your outfit options. I recommend textures and neutral or muted tones. Also, you can bring a second outfit if you'd like a different look.

Nope! Engagement sessions are included in all full day wedding packages. If I'm documenting your elopement, reduced session rate is available!

If the weather isn't cooperating, we'll reschedule. Or if you're up for it, we'll grab some umbrellas and lean into it.

A 50% retainer secures your date, and the rest is due the week of your session.

Family photos that feel effortless and fun. Couple sessions that look romantic and like the two of you.
