About Amanda May Photos

Amanda

Owner & Photographer

I could give you my spill about how I started shooting with a film Minolta in middle school and that it tugged my heart so deeply I never set the camera down. But I would rather share with you what I love. What I enjoy. What I'm about. I have a passionate soul. I get way too excited too easily. I smile at just about anything. I'm terrible with names. I'm a retired certified public accountant. I'm allergic to dogs. I own WAY too many shoes. I want a tattoo of a vintage camera. I love what I do so much it takes my breath away. This is me. The real me. Not the "fake, I hope I sold you" me. Now let's see if we can make this thing work.

I catch myself so many times wishing life away and I have to force myself to stop. Take it all in. To not lose site of the little things that make this life worth living. That's why I love photography. Because those little things that you never want to forget become a permanent memory. You know what happens when you look at a photograph? Your mind is immediately reminded of the moments that happened before and after that snapshot along with the emotions you were feeling. That one photograph preserves that moment forever.

Best Wedding Photographer Ever!

When it comes to wedding photos, these are the memories to pass onto current and future generations of family. So you want a really good photographer. I can't say enough wonderful things about Amanda. From the very beginning, she got to know us as both as individuals and as a couple. From our engagement session to our wedding day, she made us feel comfortable and confident. She helped us organize everything from the wedding day timeline to the best outdoor lighting opportunities. She really paid attention to our vision, and made sure we got all the photo shots we wanted. During the wedding day, I was so impressed with how organized and punctual she was, and at the same time allowing us to feel like everything flowed organically. And when the sneak peaks came back, I was blown away! She captured our day beautifully. I will be so proud to show our wedding photos to everyone. If you get lucky enough to book Amanda May Photography, don't hesitate to say yes!

I still can't get over all the really cool, unique design features you did that reflected you and JT so well. Thank you for choosing me to be a part of your day and trusting me with these precious memories. I cannot wait for you to see the rest of your gallery!
Must Hire AMANDA MAY!

My wife and I reviewed several photographers recommended to us for our wedding at The Magnolia Venue. After narrowing it down and interviewing three, we decided to go with Amanda May and we're SO GLAD we did! Amanda was so patient with us throughout the process and even helped us make some decisions outside of her responsibilities. We felt an instant connection with Amanda, allowing us to be comfortable, relaxed and ourselves. We went back and forth on whether to hire a videographer and instead decided to go with her sister-in-law Devin Fothergill (@Content_by_Dev) and have tons of raw video footage capturing candid moments and reliving every moment of our wedding day. 10 of 10, HIGHLY RECOMMEND Amanda May and her great team your wedding!

I would recommend Amanda in a heart beat! It was so clear to us how dedicated and passionate she is as a photographer as soon as we spoke during our first initial phone call. She is highly professional and will ensure that everything goes smoothly for your wedding day. She was able to capture one of the most important days of our life so beautifully. I absolutely loved her easy going style and her light and airy editing. My husband and I along with our friends/family can't stop staring at our beautiful wedding photos!

Amanda truly made our day the most special. From a super fun engagement session to spending practically our whole wedding weekend with us, she made it all greater than we could ever imagined. Her creativity and love for getting the best shot is unmatched! Our entire wedding party could not quit talking about much they all enjoyed Amanda and her fun, easy going personality! She truly has a gift for loving and serving those around her. If you want the most perfect day and pictures to look back at, Amanda is the perfect photographer for you!

Oh Leighton! This is so kind of you and I so appreciate the time you set aside to do this for me and other couples thinking about hiring me! I absolutely loved being a part of your wedding day. The thing that impacted me the most was just how sweet everyone was. Family members, wedding party members, even random guests would come up to me telling me how much they loved the photos or what a great job I was doing. They didn't have to do that. But you guys attract the sweetest people in your circle because the two of you are just so so sweet. I can't say enough thank yous for choosing me as your wedding photographer. It was truly an honor to capture this day for you!
