With a keen eye for detail and a passion for storytelling, I create timeless images that reflect the unique essence of each couple. I look forward to bringing your special moments to life!

As a wedding photographer with over 7 years of experience, my style blends documentary storytelling with a timeless, elegant aesthetic. I have experience photographing weddings in diverse locations, from the Chicagoland area to the stunning mountain landscapes of Flagstaff, Arizona.

AR Drendel is a passionate, committed professional who captured all the wonderful memories of our special day. From the moment we first reached out, she was responsive and helpful in answering our questions. On the day of the wedding, she was so kind and sweet, making us and our guests feel at ease as they expertly documented every moment. The final photos exceeded our expectations, beautifully showcasing the joy and love of our celebration. We are thrilled with the work AR Drendel provided and would highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.

Amanda is a wonderful photographer - thoughtful, kind, and has a great eye. We hired Amanda to photograph our hiking elopement in Sedona, AZ. She hiked out with us, photographed our vows, and took pictures along the hike with us. This was an unusual wedding, and she took it in stride and executed it perfectly! Her pictures are stunning, her communication was seamless, and she made our day feel very special and beautiful.

Amanda from AR Drendel was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding photography. Her communication was clear, timely and honest throughout the entire process. The quality of her work was truly exceptional - she has an expressive and creative eye that captured the natural beauty of our outdoor setting and the love between my husband and I. Amanda was super patient and flexible, working with us ahead of time to plan out the shots we wanted, and then seamlessly flowing with the spontaneity and beauty of our wedding day. We couldn't have asked for a more lovely person to work with before and during our special day. We are thrilled with the results and highly recommend AR Drendel for any couple looking for beautiful, emotive wedding photography. She did such a good job capturing how much fun we were having!

Typically, couples book me about 6-12 months before their wedding date. I encourage you to reach out as soon as possible about my availability, even if you’re planning on a shorter time frame.

This one is up to you! I am typically comfortable being a one-woman-band but if you have a large number of guests, a large wedding party, many locations in mind or just want more final photos, I would recommend a second shooter. If we discuss this option and feel a second shooter is right for your day, I will call on one of my talented photographer friends and coordinate the whole process with them.

My turnaround time varies by season. Typically, for a standard 8 hour wedding day, you’ll be able to view your photos online about 6-8 weeks after your wedding. Within this time, you can also expect to receive a link to your online gallery with high-resolution image files, so you can share the photos with your loved ones and order prints.

I do! Just let me know if your venue requires a certificate of liability, and I’ll send that over to them.

In my 7 years of experience as a wedding photographer, I’ve never cancelled a booking. In the very rare event that I’m unable to photograph your wedding, I’ll make sure you’re covered by one of my colleagues or my contracted assistant. I’ll also provide you with a list of photographers from the many networking groups I’m in, so you can find the perfect replacement.

All my packages include plenty of information and as many consultations as you want leading up to the wedding. I’m happy to help put together timelines, recommend other vendors, and answer any questions you may have. After the wedding, all high-resolution, edited images are delivered to a private gallery, which you have the ability to download and use with a personal use copyright release.
