My Story:
I’m Amanda, a commercial portrait & event photographer based in Southern California. I was always the girl with a Polaroid or disposable camera in her hand. My love for photography grew when I started having kids. I got my first digital camera in 2015 and began creating my own little photoshoots. In 2021, I decided to take my love for photography to the next level and took photography classes.
Artist Statement:
I enjoy capturing milestones in people’s lives. I love being a part of these special moments.
People are in a good mood, and you feel the positive energy around. It could be a birthday, graduation, wedding, or pregnancy. These moments in my client’s lives that they can enjoy for years to come.
