    Have I mentioned how much I enjoy photographing high school seniors? I LOVE IT!!!

    Carly is a great example of why photographing these students is just a privilege and joy. With a million watt smile and great taste in boots Carly lights up the room! She has a distinct personality and style that is simple, subtle, and modern. This is also reflected in the jewelry that she designs, makes, and wears. When I first met with Carly I was excited to learn that she had recently returned from Italy (super jealous) and not only did she bring back some beautiful dresses and boots, but she really seemed to be inspired by the visual dynamics of the city.

    Hoping for good weather we trekked to Salem for a more urban look – Downtown and Willamette University were our main locations. On a side note: It must have been photo-day because we saw at least 10 other photographers working that day. Wow! Carly’s friend, Vanessa, came along for the shoot also… but she’ll get her own blog post next.

    I am very excited to see what lays ahead in Carly’s future. Fashion/Apparel Design? Jewelry Making? Definitely something creative and hands-on. …No matter what it is I know it will be worth keeping my eyes on.

    "I feel so lucky to have had Amanda there with us to document every major milestone in our relationship: engagement, wedding and now our very first pregnancy!

    She has become such an important part of our lives and made each event even more special with her photography and positive energy."

    - Erika + Matthew

    "Amanda has an amazing ability to capture the actual emotions of the experience on camera... All our guests fawned over our amazing and artistic photos, and I know the pictures will be excellent memories for years to come.

    More personally, Amanda is a super kind and generous person that clearly loves what she does."

    - Alison + Austin

    "I told [Amanda] I wanted some branding and lifestyle photos for my new website and social posts and she more than delivered!

    Seriously. I refer Amanda to anyone who wants to feel good about themselves, their business, their products, their event, whatever."

    - Kasey Yanna | Freedom Feels Communications

    "With Amanda, not only do you get a rockstar photographer, you get an experienced professional who understands the emotion and lifelong importance of every moment of a wedding. We received tons and tons of unsolicited positive feedback from our closest family and friends about Amanda. She was a constant source of support and positivity throughout the weekend."

    - Danielle + Matt

    "[Amanda] excels at: attention to detail & understanding the story of each client and shoot, kind and direct communication, and articulating clear instructions to whomever is being photographed.

    [...] she has a special ability to help bring out the best in you and give you photos where you shine!"
