My work lives at the intersection of documentary storytelling and editorial imagery. I approach weddings with a quiet, observant presence—allowing moments to unfold naturally while composing them with a refined, timeless eye. Nothing is overly posed or forced; instead, I focus on honest emotion, subtle interactions, and the atmosphere of the day.
I step in only when needed, offering gentle guidance to create space for images that feel elevated yet real. The result is a collection of photographs that feel both artful and true—romantic, intentional, and full of life. Images that don’t just document what happened, but how it felt to be there.

Hi! My name is Amanda and I have been practicing photography for over 10 years. Photography has always been my favorite art form and a very close second is videography. I love how you can capture so many moments and feelings in one photo. It really is a true joy for me.

We had the absolute best experience working with Amanda for both our engagement shoot and our wedding day. From the very beginning, she was so easy to work with, friendly, professi...
onal, and incredibly organized.
We booked her for five hours on our wedding day, and I am still amazed at how much she was able to capture in that time. She documented all of the important and meaningful moments so beautifully, yet somehow managed to remain completely inconspicuous. It truly felt like she was everywhere and nowhere at the same time, in the best way possible. She never distracted from the moment or pulled focus, but still captured everything.
One of our favorite things about her work is how many candid moments she caught. Those natural, in-between photos are the ones my husband and I treasure the most, and Amanda captured them perfectly.
She worked efficiently, honored her contract, and delivered exactly what she promised and more. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer and would love the opportunity to work with her again in the future.

We cannot recommend Amanda Caitlin Photography enough for capturing our wedding day. From the moment we booked her, Amanda was warm, professional, and incredibly communicative. She...
went above and beyond her role — not just as a photographer, but as a calm and grounding presence throughout the entire day. She never once expressed inconvenience or stress, even when things got hectic behind the scenes. Instead, she carried herself with such ease and professionalism that it helped alleviate any pressure and allowed us to truly enjoy every moment.
Amanda’s eye for capturing emotion, detail, and candid beauty is unmatched. Our photos are more than we ever could have imagined timeless, intimate, and full of joy. On top of that, her turnaround time was shockingly fast, and she still took the time to genuinely value our thoughts and feedback on the final gallery.
She made the entire experience feel so personalized and special, and we are forever grateful to have had her by our side for such a meaningful day.

On our wedding day, Amanda was a calming presence, capturing every precious moment with such grace and skill.

ld give her a try. From the moment I reached out to her, I knew she would be a good fit for us. Her communication was always thorough, prompt, and friendly. We had never done a photoshoot in our lives, so we had A LOT of questions and nerves, and yet Amanda always made us feel comfortable and calm. She is so sweet and helped us have a blast at our engagement shoot, which is not something we expected. Once we saw the finished product, we were AMAZED. We used her photos for our wedding invitations and got so many comments of how fantastic they came out. With such a high quality result and impeccable service, we KNEW we wanted Amanda to be our wedding photographer. At the wedding, we were again treated with the same kindness and professionalism we experienced at our engagement photoshoot. I will always recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a photographer, and I will certainly use her service again in the future.

re, which made for amazing pictures. She was capable of adapting to whatever environment we were at ,and made the best of any background we had available. Our original plan of driving to a park was scrapped, and she made the vest of what we had available. Not to mention her editing and removing objects from pictures skills are amazing. Thank you Amanda for a great photography session. We love all of our pictures and will most definitely recommend your services.

Leaving this much belated review of Amanda Caitlin Photography-- We got married in July 2023. First of all, Amanda was AMAZING. We had a pretty tight budget for our wedding and NO ...
idea what we wanted in terms of photos. Amanda kindly guided us through some of the shot ideas and what to expect before and on the day of the wedding. She was communicative, fast to respond, and easy to work with. She made sure to document who we wanted photos with, whether we want first look, getting ready shots etc... and even special moments we didn't want to miss!
On the day of the wedding, I was a nervous wreck, running around to get the venue and myself ready until the ceremony start time. Amanda thankfully knew what she was doing and got shots of my dress, wedding signs and the venue without me having to ask (which turned out beautiful btw). During the wedding she was very low key and knew exactly where to take her shots even though our directions were vague at best.
At cocktail hour, we got our couple shots done indoors and outdoors. Amanda coached us through some of the poses which was very helpful since both of us are awkward photo takers.
We also had some unconventional asks for photos throughout the wedding like getting a group photo of the whole wedding party (70+ people) and getting individual photos of each reception table with the couple; Amanda was so accommodating, I really appreciated her patience!
After the wedding, Amanda gave us our sneak peek with incredible turnaround time and the final edits came in within 3 months. We loved the final results and am really thankful that we chose Amanda as our photographer for our special day!

LOOK NO FURTHER. Amanda is IT! I am SO glad that we found Amanda for our December wedding. As two people who have no idea how to pose for cute photos, Amanda made us feel comfortab...
le in our own skin instantly. Honestly, she made us feel like models, looking back on the photos! (And trust me, we are NOT that naturally cool in real life…so thanks for making us look and feel like a million bucks). The engagement photos were so incredible that it was so hard to pick only a few to showcase at our wedding…much less pick for the wedding invites. For those who are about to take engagement photos…trust the process. You might feel weird going through it, but Amanda is a true professional and knows what she is doing! And don’t be afraid to ask to look at what has been captured too, if you want to make minor adjustments or check that your hair and accessories are in the right place. During the engagement shoot Amanda even played music to help us feel more natural. In addition to helping us with classic and candid poses, she was always willing to help us capture any Pinterest or inspo pics that I found online, which actually resulted in one of my favorite photos from our engagement shoot.
On our actual wedding day, she worked so hard to help us get the most magical photos despite the (last minute and unexpected) rain. With Amanda on our wedding team, I felt confident that our photos would turn out beautiful come rain or shine…and I was right! Amanda’s talent and hard work continued beyond the wedding day…after our photos were released, she still went above and beyond to help make the requested edits on our photos such as editing out unwanted/unnecessary background details to make the photos print-ready. Though waiting for the photos always feels like an eternity (just because we were so excited to relive our special day), the product delivered by Amanda was SO well worth the wait. Also, Amanda works over time to make sure that your photos do arrive by the promised time…even while working as a full time counselor and picking up more and more wedding photography gigs. I am so grateful for her dedication to her craft and incredible work ethic. Thank you so much, Amanda! My family will have so many precious memories to look through for years and years to come.
