Destin + Santa Rosa Beach + 30A Beach
Newborn + Maternity Photographer
Welcome to my world of photography, a place where each click captures a story, and every image is a timeless treasure. I’m Amanda, a devoted 30A photographer, bringing to life the beauty, emotion, and spirit of your special moments. Serving the stunning Emerald Coast, from Destin to Seaside and Rosemary Beach, my portfolio is a window into a diverse and vibrant collection of work.
What will it be?… The feeling of a life growing inside of you? The midnight snacks that must be fulfilled RIGHT NOW? The pitter-patter of little footsteps across the floor? The twinkle in their eyes and dimples in their cheeks? What will you remember the most as your sweet baby grows?
That’s where I help. The art I provide captures these loving moments and fills homes with priceless collections of joyous memories that will warm your family’s hearts for generations to come. This is why It is so important for me to properly prepare for your unique and personal, stylized portrait session.

Hello
I’M AMANDA
My photographic journey began 16 years ago, driven by my fascination with capturing life’s narratives. Initially drawn to journalism, I soon realized my true calling was in photography.

I’m a Destin + 30A + Santa Rosa Beach Photographer with a Focus on Effortless Sessions, Colorful Skies, and Timeless Heirlooms for Generations to Enjoy.
