“Attentive, reliable, and very friendly! The pictures came out awesome and she really made everyone feel comfortable. Thanks, Amanda!”

Amanda was great to work with!

Amanda was so easy to work with and definitely made us feel relaxed. She was very organized and every time we met was very on top of everything. Also very flexible with her time which made things easier for us as we lived over an hour away. Great experience!

“Words could never express the way I feel when I look at the photos from my dream day. Amanda was so thoughtful with every shot and very in-tune with the surroundings. The purity of each shot makes them so personal. The ability to realize what the true version of the couple is, even all dressed up, and to capture the treasured moments with ease, and to let everyone be themselves! I would never recommend another photographer. The idea of Amanda working so closely with her husband, the couple can truly show off the capability to appreciate every detail and especially every couple. The married couple duo is outstanding in ever way.”

“Photos that will last a lifetime. She has the cutest ideas.”

“Thank you for everything! Last night was SO MUCH fun, you are a blast! A perfect honorary bridesmaid!”

“We are so happy with the work Amanda did! She did an amazing job with our daughter’s surprise proposal. From the first contact, Amanda always responded quickly and left no stone unturned. She arrived in plenty of time to capture the perfect moment. It was also 35 degrees outside the beach but she never rushed. Do not hesitate to contact Amanda Obara “

“Amanda was the best decision I made for my destination wedding. She was fun and flexible. I was looking for a simple photo shoot for my second wedding and she worked with is to create a very reasonably priced. She arrived as planned, was professional and funny. We had a timing issue and she was willing to extend her time to make sure I had what I needed on one of the most important days of my life. My pictures are gorgeous and unique. I would highly recommend her and would use her again in the future! “

“First off, Amanda is awesome ! My fiancée and I loved the finished product and she was great to work with. Amanda is also very creative and relaxed with good direction. We can’t wait for our wedding !”

“I highly recommend Amanda Obara Photography for your special event! Amanda was worth every single penny and more! She was nothing short of amazing on our 3/19/16 wedding day. Our sneak peek photos are stunning and beyond expectations. We are still receiving raving comments from our guests about how friendly, skillful and all over the place Amanda was just to get the best shot! She captured the most genuine moments of our special day and we cannot thank her enough for the beautiful images we will treasure forever! Amanda truly LOVES what she does and it shows! If you are looking for a spectacular photographer for your event, look no further, you’ve found her!“

“So long story short … I was the Groomzilla for our wedding and we had shopped around with our other vendors as some gave us an uneasy feeling. However, when we first met Amanda at a wedding expo, my wife-to-be and myself knew that we were going to book with her. Amanda knows her business and was able to provide recommendations to ensure that we would be able to obtain the pictures we wanted. When it came to our wedding day Amanda went above and beyond to help us capture every moment on our special day. Thanks again for your time and effort!”

Working with Amanda is a joy. My fiance and I are an offbeat couple who had some quirky ideas for our engagement pictures. Amanda enthusiastically honored those ideas, as well as gently guiding us when it came to posing and positions. She is the best mix of VERY fun and warm but also VERY professional. Sometimes getting pictures taken can feel very stilted or awkward, but it just felt easy with her. The pictures are JAW DROPPING. I am so pleased with them and as something that we’re going to be displaying in our homes for our entire married life, it feels amazing to look at those pictures and feel so beautiful in them. She really captured our dynamic as a couple.

“Stop looking. She’s the one. Amanda made me feel comfortable and relaxed. I told her my insecurity about photo taking and she worked with me the day of to remind me to place my body in a way that my photographs wouldn’t reflect it. She spent the whole day with me and my girls while we got ready and although we ran behind a few times, I wasn’t stressed and Amanda definitely played a role in that. She is worth every single penny, not only for her work but definitely her dedication and that unlimited hours package. I loved not being on a time table like I was with everything else for my day.”
