Hi, I’m Mandy
JUST A FOUL-MOUTHED EARTH SIGN THAT IS PASSIONATE ABOUT CAPTURING THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE
I’m an old soul. Inspired by love, nature and art. An evolving woman, mother and creator - obsessed with documenting stories through my lenses. Living life in Florida with my son; my heart outside my chest. I love slow and quiet mornings, usually incorporating a hot cup of black coffee and a walk. Plants. True Crime documentaries. Conspiracy theory documentaries. Any documentary really. Farmer’s markets. A physical planner + a smooth pen. Sundays. Spicy margs. Avocados. Hot yoga. CoHo books. Cooking. Traveling. NSYNC. Chicken Wings (all flats, extra crispy, with blue cheese). Most days off you'll find me in sneakers and jeans, probably at Target...

LOVE LANGUAGE: acts of service.
Born in New York, then moved to Florida when I was 8. I’m extremely hard-working and have always been into many different things. But photography has stuck with me since I was 13. I fell in love with photography playing with my grandma’s point and shoot during our family parties (man I wish I still had that camera now). I was always the one taking the photos, never IN the photos. My love for documenting stories continued on to high school, where I got more hands-on experience capturing school events. I haven’t put the camera down since. I spent 10 years after high school studying, practicing, youtubing, investing, before I decided to make this my career. I am so grateful for each and every one of my clients who trust and rock with me in this journey of life. Each wedding impacts me differently and I’m so touched by all the love I get to witness in my lifetime.

the EXPERIENCE
This is important….
If you're reading this, chances are you're considering me to document your wedding day story. First of all, I’m so grateful you are here. Your choice of photographer is crucial, as it will shape how your day is remembered forever. It's important that we vibe and resonate with each other's styles. I encourage you to explore your options, shop around, and book someone you’d actually want to be friends with. Your wedding day will be vulnerable and emotional. The person documenting those tender moments should be someone you trust and is approachable.
I’m your hype-woman, your problem-solver, and your right hand. I love what I do, and I’m devoted to ensuring that you have the best wedding experience possible. Any minor mishap that happens on your wedding day is temporary but your marriage is forever. I’ll remind you to not sweat the small shit—redirecting you to embrace your special day and to be present. I’ll cry with you, dance with you and drink with you. In fact, 90% of my clients become lifelong friends.
Your photography experience with me will be relaxed and authentic. I’m a professional third wheel, documenting evidence of your wedding in the rawest art form. In all honesty, I’m not for the fake shit. I won’t be showing up with a tripod and a bunch of umbrella lights. I won’t direct you into awkward and stiff poses. Give me the real you.
I want the tears, the belly laughs, the deep breaths, and the goosebumps. I embrace imperfections because let's face it, life is messy and unpredictable, and those unscripted moments are what makes beautifully candid imagery.
I cater to all weddings. Luxury and lavish weddings, intimate backyard weddings, courthouse weddings, or even mountain top elopements. No matter where or how you choose to say your “I do’s”, you deserve tangible everlasting memories that brings warmth to your heart every time you look back at them.
I’m ready to celebrate your love. Let’s create some badass photographs and have a good time doing it.
