Photography That Feels as Real as Your Memories
Your love story is absolutely amazing, and every page must be captured with honesty, skill, and heart. I am a Rancho Tierra Grande creative photographer, and I adore photographing the best of your life, be it romantic proposal, love-filled wedding, intimate private elopement, or adventurous bridal boudoir experience.
Set against the grandeur of Rancho Tierra Grande, every session has been designed with the vision of pulling out the splendor of your love. From proposal sessions basking in the sun's warmth of gold, lovely bridal portraits, and intimate glimpses on your wedding day, I want your love captured in a way that feels natural, timeless, and intimate.
I believe in telling your story with images—the smiles, of the small gestures, of the unexpressed feels, and of the spaces between, leaving your experience indelible. If your exchange of vows is small and intimate, your commitment with a celebration of your engagement, or your embracing of your bridal boudoir experience, I can guarantee every photograph speaks of the real you.
Amanda was creative, professional and accommodating our unique day as a big blended family. I never had to deal with any family picture drama on the day of the event because we covered EVERYTHING ahead of time. Amanda also taught me how to pose and captured everything we asked and more! Highly recommend!
“Incredible wedding photographer!”
Her talent is boundless; she’s able to find the perfect moments, angles and shots that wow’ed absolutely everyone who has seen our photos. Her charm, graciousness, and experience made us feel incredibly comfortable during all photo sessions, despite the fact that neither of us had spent much time in front of a camera.
“She always goes the extra mile for you and genuinely cares about the end result.”
Her photos capture this beautiful natural light and make everything classic, lovely, and the style is so perfect for California, especially Monterey. I felt so comfortable around her. She did our engagement, Indian pre-wedding celebration (Sangeet), my boudoir photos, and our wedding, and she was by far our favorite person to work with!
"If we did it all over again I would choose her a million times over."
