Film photography has always held a very special place in my heart and in my artistic practice. Using only black and white film for years was how I truly came to understand and appreciate what photography is - the expression of light.
Now, 10+ years later, I'm a self-proclaimed polaroid and 35mm film expert. If you're looking to unlock the magic of film that digital just can't replicate, ask me about adding film to your session!
- 35mm film will be scanned and delivered digitally
- Polaroids will be given to you at the end of the session for you to keep as a physical mementos.
- Number of rolls used, images delivered and polaroids given will vary*

My approach to photography is built on one simple belief: there are NO RULES when it comes to celebrating and honoring your unique love story.
Encapsulating your fleeting moments in timeless and quality images isn't my only goal as your photographer. I’m here to help you craft an adventurous day full of experiences that honor your love, your life, and your story.
Let’s work together to create an experience that authentically reflects your journey and all that makes you, you!
Whether you want to hike a mountain at sunrise for your surprise proposal, to elope with the ocean breeze against your face, or have a backyard wedding with your closest family and friends, I'll be right there to artfully document all the big and in-between moments.
I'm wicked excited you’re here!
I'm a digital and film photographer based in the coastal city of Portland, Maine. As a lifelong New Englander who’s called Maine home for over seven years, I’ve had the opportunity to explore tons of hidden outdoor gems throughout the region, just waiting to share them with you.
My goal is to be your artist friend first, and a business owner second. My absolute favorite thing about being a photographer is the number of truly amazing humans - just like you - that I get to meet, and how many walk away as true friends. It makes my heart SO happy to document your most important moments and to turn them into art you can cherish for a lifetime!

"We have worked with Amanda several times now and each time it has been an amazing experience. She brings such positive energy and enthusiasm to the photoshoots, she is open to our creative ideas and always has her own as well.
Whether the shots she is taking are classic or more creative, her skill and talent really show through in the results."
Alex & Grace
"Amanda was everything we could ask for as a couple doing a surprise proposal. She has very reasonable pricing, great communication, quality photos and there was a quick turnaround in receiving the final images.
She mapped out the location ahead of time, sending pictures and videos of the best places to choose from. We had an hour with her and she helped make the absolute most of it. We told her we were adventurous and to just direct us however she wanted and the photos turned out amazing.
Highly recommend Amanda, she helped make the most of this special moment for us."
Molly & Myles
"Amanda photographed my wedding reception, and her photos are so beautiful, I can't stop going back to look at them again and again!
She did such a great job not only getting pictures of us and our guests but also captured the setting and the feel of the day perfectly. She is so sweet and made us feel totally comfortable in front of the camera and had lots of unique and fun ideas for poses and portraits. I am already thinking of other occasions that we'd like to hire her to photograph in the future!"
