Aileen Christmas 2017-12.jpg

Look at this cute little family in their Christmas Elf jammies!

Aileen, Josiah and Sophia Deville, These three are so fun and photogenic. The mother and son have the best relationship and kept me laughing the entire session. 

Even their cousin's got in on the pajama party by posing with their Titi Aileen and cousin Siah. I just love them all so much!

Merry Christmas Family!

Stonko Family Christmas!

Stonko Family Photos 2017-1.jpg

When I met Mrs. Celia at a Judge Free Mom's event, where we talked all night long, I didn't imagine a new friendship would emerge. Soon i'd be at her kids birthday party and taking their Christmas photos!

The Stonko Family! So thankful for the opportunity to be welcomed into their home and capture their beautiful family. Here are a few of my favorites from the session...

Since Celia originally wanted outdoor winter photos, I let it snow (yes in their living room) to give a fun little element of Christmas winter photos.

Merry Christmas Stonko Family, and a blessed new year!

Brothers Christmas story time

,

It's certainly the most wonderful time of the year! My two loves enjoying some Christmas story time. Love seeing these two interact and learn together. With all the snow out here in CLE, they certainly warm my heart. <3 

Christmas 2017 is going to be a blast! Can't wait to see the look on their faces Christmas morning. 

Merry Christmas from the Lott Boys!

Williams Family Blues

Those eyes though...

The Williams Family with those beautiful blue eyes... and Dakota, the prettiest, happiest girl you will meet. She waved at me the first time I met her. Loved capturing this beautiful family during my winter mini sessions, and though it was cold, we had fun with this little beauty! 

What a gorgeous family! Excited to capture more of them soon.

McGrath Winter snow

McGrath Family Photos 2017-2snow.jpg

The McGraths are a beautiful couple I had the privilege of meeting during my Winter Mini sessions this month. They were also chosen as my winners of a custom Christmas card from Lotts of Designs along with 5 photos from their session. When I chose this lovely couple, I didn't know they were going to use the photos for their card, and it worked out perfectly that I had the chance to officially design their Announcement Christmas card.

They were hoping for snow that day... and well, since I love to make my clients happy, I gave them snow! So thankful that they love their photos and Christmas card and I'm looking forward to capturing more special moments of this growing family. <3

A very Sterby Christmas!

Sterbys Christmas 2017-30.jpg

This beautiful family allowed me the privilege to enter their home and capture this special season in their life. The Sterby's are such a blessing and I can't wait to see this beautiful family continue to grow. You can feel the unconditional love in this home!

Malachi's First Christmas! What a doll. I can't get over how cute and sweet this little guy is. We had fun dressing him up as a sleepy reindeer. <3 

The Christmas jammies were the best, and my favorite moments were just the tender love of a mother for her son, and daddy reading "God gave us Christmas". This was quite a special session. Best way to start out the Holidays!

Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year Matt, Heather & Malachi. <3

 

Warmest Wishes,

Nick, Jenny & Rheya!

,

I had the privilege of capturing engagement photos for these two local Veterans, on Veterans Day this past weekend (11/11/17). Nick and Jenny are such a cute couple, and their dog Rheya... well, see for yourself. 

Moving from the beautiful tropical Island of Hawaii to the wavering Cleveland weather, these two came prepared with their winter coats. You never know how cold it will be, but the coats, and dog hat that their puppy Reya wore, made for an adorable outdoor winter photo shoot. 

I still can't get over what a sweet and well behaved puppy Rheya is, and I hope to get more opportunities to capture her cuteness. The love and simplicity of this cute little family is adorable and I am thankful for this opportunity. Can't wait to see their save-the-date Christmas cards. 

Oh... and Happy Birthday Rheya {11/16}!

Thanks,
Amanda

Team Thomas!

Team Thomas Final 2017.jpg

I had the honor of capturing this beautiful family, who have a special place in my heart. Great friends, though we may not see each other often due to the business of life, when we get to catch up, it's as if we just recently spoke.

We met up at Edgewater to capture the great backdrop of our city #CLE. This gorgeous unit was so fun to follow and I even got some assistance from a little princess, who had a few ideas for some poses herself... with her little brother. 

Team Thomas Final 2017-12.jpg

These kids are amazing! They are smart, bright, full of life and love! Their parents are raising them to be upstanding, intelligent, and God fearing... Oh I can't wait to see the places they will go.

Cruz girls, surrounded by Gold!

,

Capturing these three is one of my favorite things to do. I never know what to expect when looking from behind my 50mm lens. 

Cruz Gals Photos 2017-1.jpg

My sister is a great mother to her two beautiful girls. They always keep me laughing, and she works very hard, (third shift to be exact), just to be around for her daughters, and never misses a school event. She loves to mess with the girls and often plays many tricks on them, (which I know they will have their revenge someday, lol), but when I get the opportunity to capture these gals behind the camera, all I see is love!

There is nothing like the unconditional love of a mother. 

"The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness". -Honore de Balzac

This past summer I had lots of fun spending time with the Cruz Girls at Maria's Field of Hope in Avon, showing them the field of gold and all that it represents. We enjoyed it so much, that I hope we get to make it a yearly tradition and visit the sunflower field often, creating and capturing beautiful moments. 

Here are some of my favorites from this session! Enjoy!

 

With Love,
Amanda 

 

Generations of Love!

Debbie Diaz Photos 1.jpg

Josiah is a blessed little boy! Before his grandmother moved to Florida to be with the rest of the family, I had the honor to capture three generations of Love!

Great-Grandma, Grandma, and Josiah visited Maria's Field of Hope, where I was privileged to capture some special moments between these three, memories they will always cherish! 

Thank you, Debbie, for entrusting me with such a special task! I love to capture these moments, you can feel so much love from just looking at the photos. 

Yours truly,
Amanda
