capturing the story & scenery of your best day ever

Western Colorado & Moab Elopement Photographer

based in Grand Junction, CO

Serving Crested Butte, Ouray, Telluride, Aspen, Moab & Beyond

Maybe you started planning a traditional wedding, but everything felt all wrong.

The idea of being the center of attention of 100+ people all day sounds like a nightmare.

You knew that as much as they’d be trying to help, your family and friends could ultimately change your ideas and plans for the big day.

You knew that throwing a huge party actually meant you wouldn’t have time to see everyone, or spend time with your new spouse.

You would rather spend the day in your favorite place than a wedding venue.

You believe your wedding day should be an intimate celebration focused on your love for each other and who you are as a couple!

YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

Let me guess...

Grand Junction Wedding Photography

for nostalgic souls who crave a wedding day their way.

I’ve spent the last 13+ years helping offbeat couples create wedding days that reflect them — not tradition, expectations, or trends.

Whether you’re dreaming of vows by a canyon rim or cozying up in a cabin with your closest people, I’ll help you plan it, document it, and stay grounded in the moment.

You deserve to be absolutely stoked about your wedding day.

“There are moments that I know I will long for, even as I live them.”

SHE/HER

-Allison & Ethan

Amanda is the perfect wedding photographer. She’s efficient, she gets absolutely all the shots you want and those you didn’t even know you want, and she just blended into our event perfectly. The photos perfectly captured the whole day and I feel like I can easily relive it just by looking back at the photos. I highly recommend Amanda.

"The Perfect Wedding Photographer"

-Megan & Jordan

Amanda was the best decision we made for our wedding day! The photos are exceptional and perfectly capture the scenery and vibe we were going for, but that’s only a portion of what Amanda provided. She helped give us planning guidance, organization, and reassurance throughout, which alleviated all the worries we had about eloping in a place we’d never been before.

"Alleviated all the worries"

-Beth & Dustin

We used Amanda for our wedding and she is the BEST! Our photos turned out amazing and she captured the feel of our night perfectly. She’s also really fun to hang with. We didn’t want her to leave at the end of the night!

"She captured the feel of our night perfectly."

- Kylie & Murat

Amanda did an amazing job on our elopement photos! She was incredibly organized during all the planning and sent incredibly helpful tips and ideas in the months leading up. Plus all her recommendations for other local vendors were fantastic.

"Incredibly organized & helpful"
