ABOUT ME
Hi! My name is Amanda, welcome to my page! I am so happy that you are here and interested in creating magic with me!
Since my first picture phone at age 10, I have been passionate about capturing raw and authentic moments in the beauty of life. It brings me so much joy to create beautiful memories for people that will freeze a moment in time that they will forever cherish.
I am located in Venice, FL, only minutes from so many beautiful beaches. I usually stay in the Venice/Nokomis, Manasota, and Osprey area, but will consider other locations in the southwest Florida region based on dates available to travel further. I am a full-time stay-at-home mom outside of photography. I have purposefully chosen family and couple sunset beach photography so that I can continue to be a full-time mom. However, if you love my work and would like to submit a request for other times of the day or a bigger event, I would love to hear from you.
A photoshoot with me means
I am a strong believer that if you are a happy person, it will exuberate out of you and into my lens. Beauty one thousand percent comes from within, and I will be your biggest cheerleader in making you feel as confident and beautiful as you should feel. I know that being in front of the camera can be scary for some, in fact, I still get scared to be in front of a camera, but with time and perspective under my belt, I have come to realize that focusing on the in-time moments, for example, the color of the sky, the roll of the waves coming in, the smell of the person you are taking pictures with, notice the birds flying peacefully through the sky, notice how beautiful the shimmer is from the setting sun creating golden sparkles in the water. Just truly engulfing yourself in the simplicity of the beauty of being alive at that moment takes away so much anxiety about being photographed. You focus on being happy in the moment and I promise you will be blown away by how beautiful you are in the photos.
You can make magic when you make it simple and just have fun.
Life is too short to have anything but FUN and be authentically HAPPY! Booking a session with me means that I will do whatever it takes to make this time together seem effortless and a good time with REAL smiles. I look forward to creating beautiful memories for you and this season of life that you want to capture.
