YOU'LL NEVER FORGET.
...Let US CAPTURE
THEM FOR YOU.
Hello Rhonda and Bill!
I'm Amandarose, a fine art film photographer with over 15 years of experience capturing weddings with an intentional, full-service approach. My work is rooted in documenting the quiet, joyful, and often unseen moments that make your celebration deeply personal and unforgettable.
It would be a true honor to photograph your once-in-a-lifetime day. I take time to connect with each couple to understand what matters most emotionally, visually, and meaningfully. As your photographer, I’ll be there not only to preserve the present but to help you create your first heirloom, one that tells your love story for generations to come.
Below, you’ll find a selection of my collections. Each can be thoughtfully tailored to fit your vision, whether you’re planning a single-day celebration or a full wedding weekend.
I’m so looking forward to connecting with you both and beginning this beautiful journey together.
Warmly,
- Amandarose

What couples are saying
"Amandarose was our wedding and engagement photographer and we were blown away by both by the outcome and the process of working with her. We were looking for a wedding photographer who could tell the story of our day, capturing both documentary style and more classic photos.
She excels at both.
We love how she incorporates digital and film while keeping the same feel between the two mediums..."
I would encourage anyone looking for a photographer to find someone you enjoy spending time with - between her trip to Texas for our engagement shoot to the whole wedding weekend, we spent a lot of time with Amandarose and thoroughly every minute of it.
Three months after the wedding, we still look through our pictures almost daily"

"It is hard to put into words how incredibly wonderful our experience was working with Amandrose. She is one of the warmest, most genuine people we've had the pleasure of knowing. She's more than a photographer – she has become a friend."

the things I love
Hi!
Thanks for being here! A little about me and my business:
I've been in business since 2010 and am originally from the East Coast. I've been living in Carmel for over nine years and LOVE IT! I often travel to photograph couples, and I couldn't ask for a better job.
As a fine art film photographer, I'd be honored to capture your couple's story, no matter how big or small. I believe my purpose is to capture special moments and document countless love stories. I do it for the feels, laughter, tears, first dances, vow exchanges, and intimate moments.

- Molly & JJ
"There is not much to be said other than, absolutely book Amandarose! From the very first meeting over tacos and Coronas, we knew that she was going to be our photographer. Her personal touches shone through every time we met or spoke with her via phone, email or in-person. Her attention to detail is impeccable and she was 3 steps ahead of us when it came to making sure she captured our day."
- Bo & Katie
"Amandarose was an absolute pleasure to work with every step of the way! We clicked right away and she really took the time to get to know us from the beginning and asked us questions no one else thought to ask! she really cared and it felt like we were her only wedding.
I wish other vendors were as professional and talented as Amandarose.
We are so happy with how our engagement photos, wedding photos and album turned out. I highly recommend her and her team to anyone looking for the very best!"
