Amanda Brewer Photography

When it comes to your photoshoot, what's the first thing you expect when meeting me? Most people would say to show up on time, have their equipment ready, and guide them through the shoot while getting photos. Well, I do all that and more! Before we book your session and meet at our decided location, I get to know you a bit so that way I'm not just a stranger showing up with a camera! Your enjoyment and satisfaction is my number one priority, so if we can make the shoot fun and memorable, let's do it! Anything to help you enjoy the moments together in front of the camera!

The next thing you can expect is for me to be communicative. I work with you every step of the way to ensure that all your needs are met, questions are answered, and you know exactly what comes next in the post edit process and when exactly you will get your photos. If I have any issues come up, I always try to let you know as soon as possible -- even if things work out okay in the end. It's better to be warned and prepared, than to not be warned and suddenly things go crazy!

In the end, I want you to expect that you're going to have fun on your shoot, we are going to take some beautifully awesome pictures of you and your family, and it will be a fun and friendly experience from start to end!

I never saw myself becoming a portrait photographer in my lifetime. I thought "Sure! I could take pictures of landscapes for fun", but then I suddenly started taking pictures for family and friends, and it took off from there!

Life always has bumps, curves, and potholes until we come to our favorite scenic area that we always love driving through. I have gone through amazing blessings in my photography, and amazing challenges as well, but they are all so rewarding in the end.

The best way to look at life is the way Alan Watts has often said in many of his talks about Love, Life, Meaning, and Success:

"The most dangerous risk of all: the risk of spending your life not doing what you want on the bet you can buy yourself the freedom to do it later."

~Alan Watts,

When it comes to conducting any indoor portrait sessions, I need a minimum 15x15 space on average to set up my lights, backdrops, and the freedom of movement to get your photos. I'd hate to use my 35mm and still not have enough room! This is something we would discuss prior to booking your session with me.

Services are also dependent on weather. A little bit of rain is okay, but a total monsoon means that we will either move the shoot indoors, or we will reschedule for when the weather is a tad more pleasant. Not only do I not want you to be miserable in the cold and rain, but I don't want us or my equipment to get soaked! That does not make for a fun session!
