who i am

for as long as i can remember i have always had a deep love for photography…old photos, cameras, and memories. my favorite books growing up were my baby books. i would spend hours flipping through the pages, examining each photo, asking to hear the story behind a smile, staring in wonderment at the small girl with sun kissed skin, in the pink swimsuit, big smile and messy braids staring back at me. the round face and chubby legs that are mine but no longer the same; these things amazed me…the tattered cream colored photo books on my shelves are proof of this time spent remembering through amazing moments frozen in time and printed on paper. collages created from pictures of my friends and i mixed with funky magazine clippings covered the walls of my childhood room. everywhere i looked i saw something that meant something to me, something that touched my heart and sparked a specific emotion inside my soul. that is what i want to give to you, more than a photograph; i want to give you a spark, a feeling, a beautiful moment frozen, one you can hold onto forever.
i have decided it’s time to take a step towards a dream, something i have always wanted to do, something i am passionate about. wanted photography. I am a natural light, on location photographer, offering a unique and creative experience. Located in the dfw area but willing to travel to surrounding areas.
keep an eye out! for the next six months i will be posting several casting calls. I am wanting to get some fresh faces & images for my portfolio!
xo,
amanda
