Hey There! I'm Amanda
You could say that I am the ultimate baby whisperer! From a very young age, there are two things that I have always loved, taking care of babies and taking pictures! Kids and babies just gravitate to me naturally, so it's no wonder that I find myself here owning a business doing that exact thing I love and chasing a passion of mine that started so many years ago!
Fun fact time... I earned my Bachelors of Nursing degree at the University of Michigan! I am also a pediatric RN and worked at U of M’s Pediatric Cardiothoracic ICU for over 3 years with a ton of very ill newborns! I then practiced in pediatric and family medicine for a year after leaving the hospital! After having my first baby, I decided nursing could wait, so we sold our house and made the big move to the Lansing area to be closer to my husband's work!
My husband and I have a household where the ladies out number the guys with our two daughters and one son lol! We also have Zoey the labradoodle! We have a love for camping and just spending time as a family! O... and we all share an absolute love for ice cream!
When I am not behind the lens, you can find me hanging out with the family all cozy on the couch watching the latest movie or running outside on a nice sunny day with my crazy kiddos!
Call me crazy, but I have expensive taste as my husband likes to say haha! Filet mignon is one of my favorite meals ( I mean, what's wrong with that??)! A warm chocolate chip cookie is my kryptonite and I literally have no self control when it comes to them or any other sweets!
Have a look around my website, check out my portfolio, get to know me, and let's chat about your family. After all, there's only one of me, limited windows for gorgeous maternity and newborn photos, and availability is super scarce. Make sure to reach out to me today to get the convo started! I'm looking forward to hearing from you!

"We had a wonderful experience with Amanda for our newborn session! From the start of the process; she was quick to respond, friendly and professional. During the session, she made us feel very comfortable in her in-home studio and explained her process along the way. Amanda was very gentle with our little one and she captured some amazing pictures. We would definitely recommend Amanda and would use her again in the future!"
"We had such a great time with Amanda! She was very professional and captured AMAZING pictures of our newborn. We felt more than comfortable and safe in her in-home studio especially during this crazy time. Thank you Amanda!"
"Amanda was so kind and easy to work with! We absolutely fell in love with the vision she had in mind for our maternity session. My husband and I both felt comfortable and directed for the entire shoot. For the Love of Photography made booking very easy. Amanda promptly answered any questions that came to mind and had great suggestions. Thank you, For the Love of Photography for making me feel so beautiful and capturing a moment in time that my husband and I will cherish forever!"

She worked quickly, which is absolutely necessary when dealing with a lot of kids and our pictures are gorgeous. We will definitely be contacting Amanda again!"
