CHARLOTTE
NEWBORN & Family PHOTOGRAPHY
As a Charlotte newborn, maternity, and family photographer for over a decade, I've worked with hundreds of mamas to create timeless, light-filled portraits of them and their families.
I use a photojournalistic approach to both in-home, outdoor, and studio photography that allows me to photograph families in authentic and timeless ways. Documenting that sweet bonding time as a family is so important to me. We don't get these days back - and they move SO FAST. You'll hear that over and over - the days are long but the years are short, and it's so true.
As a mama myself, I know that what I want in photographs and family portraits is authentic beauty. I want to look back on these photographs decades from now and be transported to the smell of my newborns head, or the laugh of my sweet toddler. I also want my photos to have gorgeous light, and be utterly timeless in their aesthetic.





As a professional photographer in the Charlotte area for over 12 years, I love creating emotive portraits you will love for a lifetime.
I'm a parent to three wonderful children, and I know how quickly these years pass us by. It's so important to take our time documenting these sweet, fleeting moments with intent and joy.
I specialize in motherhood photography, with maternity, & newborn photography in Charlotte, NC.
I adore photographing families in nature, their homes, or in my South Charlotte studio.

How It All Works

1. The first step is to fill out the contact form, please include any information in there you think I should know, including your due date or the month you'd like to have your session.
2. Once we are connected and your portrait session is reserved, we can begin planning! The first step is a consultation either virtually or in my South Charlotte Studio, where we chat about best location options, wardrobe selections, and how to best prep for your session. This takes place in my photography studio, so you can see all the options and feel confident in your session.
One of the most important elements in your photographs will be your wardrobe. I've carefully selected that are feminine, timeless, photograph beautifully, and will help your photographs look truly artful and timeless.
3. After your session, you'll have access to far-more than just digital images. While I love digital versions of photographs, they cannot compare to physically holding a treasured memory, or displaying it in your home. I'm here to offer you options to physically hold your images, and de-bunk the myth that digital is the only way to go.
4. A session where no one is rushed, we capture all the sweet details, the priceless in-between moments, and so much more. These times are fleeting, which is why I love to make sure we are documenting them well.
I don't want you to like a few images. I want you to love the way you look in all of your images, so you can have a complete picture of who your family is.

Hey there, I'm Amanda

As an award-winning newborn photographer in the Charlotte, North Carolina I adore photographing newborns, maternity, and families looking for true connection and warm gorgeous light in their portraits.
Either in your home, a gorgeous sunset location, or in my
Charlotte area photography studio,
family stories are at the heart of my style.
Before I opened my studio in 2012, I remember loving that soft sunset light in photographs, gorgeous black and white images. I picked up my first film camera in 1990 and haven't looked back since. My professional portrait studio is located in the South Charlotte NC area, convenient to Uptown, Dilworth, Waxhaw, Matthews, Weddington, Huntersville, Indian Trail, Fort Mill, SC and through out the Carolinas.
I also love photographing newborns, maternity, and families in the intimate spaces of their homes, where life happens in real time.
Named one of the best photographers in the carolinas since 2016

Kind Words
I have followed Amanda for awhile and always admired her gorgeous photos, so I was beyond excited for our session with her! She is so kind and patient and managed to get amazing shots of our family which is no easy feat with our two toddlers! She provided beautiful wardrobe choices for the whole family and made everything SO easy for us. Her photos are beautiful, classic and timeless. Amanda is truly talented and we can’t wait to work with her again in the future!
