“Manda does amazing with newborns! She worked very hard to personalize our photos to what we like and our nursery theme. She had so much patience with our baby boy. You can tell she loves what she does!”
- Lauren K
Manda was patient, passionate, and creative while doing our newborn photos. Her experience helped us come up with ideas when we needed a little help coming up with positions and props. I love how our pictures turned out!
-Nichole P.
I was very impressed with Manda's work all around. She got us in on short notice, did a great job with both of my kids, and completed the photo edits extremely fast. The finished product was amazing! I would definitely recommend her to friends.
- Brietta F.
Manda is an excellent photographer. She listened to what I envisioned for my daughter's first birthday photos and completely brought those ideas to life with her own added creativity. The end product I received from her will be photos of my daughter that I will truly treasure for my whole life.
- Courtney V.

- Lynm M.
Manda was awesome! We had a marathon 3 month session with her. She was so patient and was able to get tons of smiles out of my little one. I was very pleased with the amount of really great pictures we ended up with. And the cost was very reasonable, especially for how long she spent with him and how many outfit changes we did. - Meredith M.
I most definitely do recommend Manda. She captured my daughter’s true essence perfectly. The princess experience photo shoot with Manda was the best experience. My daughter who has ASD was a little confused, but Manda was very patient with her and managed to get the most breathtaking photos I ever have seen.
