Capturing Love Stories with Heart and Artistry in vancouver, Vancouver island and beyond
Hey, I'M AMANDA
An intentional wedding is one that centers on you—your love, your dreams, and your unique journey. It’s a day designed around what truly matters, free from pressure to please anyone else. I encourage couples to create a celebration that reflects their deepest desires, whether that means an intimate elopement in nature or a grand affair in a stunning venue. By planning a day that’s authentically yours, you ensure that every moment feels meaningful, and every detail captures the essence of your love story.

THEN we're a perfect fit
Let’s get real for a second
AND GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER BETTER
My journey with love stories began in 2020, and since then, I’ve become deeply committed to capturing the authentic beauty of every moment. Photography has given me the chance to connect with incredible couples, showcasing not only their unique love but also the stunning landscapes that surround them. My mission is to provide an experience that feels seamless and personal, resulting in timeless images that you’ll cherish for a lifetime—photos that tell your story, naturally and beautifully.
A little about me—I'm the youngest of four sisters, so I’ve always been surrounded by love, laughter, and unforgettable moments. I’m a big cat lover, an iced chai enthusiast (it’s my daily ritual), and a devoted fantasy romance reader—so it’s no surprise I’m drawn to capturing real-life love stories! Through my work, I aim to help couples feel beautiful, joyful, and supported as they create once-in-a-lifetime memories, just as I hope to do every day for myself.

Your complete wedding gallery will be ready within 5 weeks. For those who want their memories sooner, I offer an expedited one-week editing option so you can relive your day even faster.
Working with Amanda, we understood the whole process from start to finish. The communication was super easy, from the initial emails to the shoot and posing cues, all the way to the delivery of the photos. She was always quick to write back and was so friendly and upbeat, and was awesome about providing information about the shoot, what to expect, and taking our comfort into consideration as well. Before heading into our photoshoot, we had a couple concerns. We were worried our photos would either not look like us, or we would have terribly awkward photos. But, Amanda made us look good and totally captured our silly, constantly laughing energy. She made us feel like we were doing something right when we were feeling like we probably looked like a hot mess. After the shoot, we were on a high, both saying “wow that was actually a good time” which we were totally not expecting. A month later, I haven’t stopped looking at the photos. They are us. You can look at the photos and feel what we were feeling. If you book with Amanda, you’ve booked the best person!!! She is such a comfortable person to be around, absolutely hilarious, always rooting for us and cheering us on. Our session was filled with belly laughs. We are so happy from the beginning communications with you, all through to the AMAZING engagement photos you took. Beyond grateful and best investment.
