This is for the parents who….

Soak up the snuggles.

Feel like life is going by too fast.

Want to remember the little details before they’re gone.

Cherish the memories.

I’m here for you. From helping you choose what to wear, either from your own wardrobe or from my studio’s, to making sure your session is as relaxing and enjoyable as possible, I will go the extra mile to ensure your memories are ones you will want to treasure forever. You have enough on your plate right now; let me give you this gift and let you enjoy it guilt-free, because no parent has ever looked through their photos after their kids were older and said, “We really did take too many pictures”.

What Families are saying:

"I messaged almost every photographer the morning I messaged Sweet Smiles Photography. Every last one of them just sent me a copy and pasted list or picture of their rates. Sweet Smiles immediately sent me an actual message and wanted to talk to me to get my vision and understand what I wanted. I told my husband, "I don't care what she costs, I want her." I wanted a fun & memorable experience with my kids and family and I know I would 100% get that with her. I am so excited. Thank you!"

Kirstan M.
"Sweet Smiles Photography has been taking my family's photos since the birth of our second child. She is always professional and kind and easy to work with. She embraces our photo ideas and takes them to the next level. We are always so happy with the results and plan to continue using Amanda for years to come!"

Jessica D.
"Amanda is an amazing photographer! She has a great eye, is a photoshop genius, and I love how great she is with kids! Our toddler was not having it during our session and despite this she still got some amazing shots! We are very happy with out photos!"

Brittany S.
"Amanda is such an artist with photography and even more talented with children and capturing beautiful and authentic moments you want to have. She does all ages too and the places she chooses are different and unique. She is totally worth every penny!"

Whatever your journey is, it deserves to be celebrated; you deserve to be celebrated.

In a fast paced world where you’re constantly in motion, choose a photographer that can take the wheel and make sure that everything goes smoothly for you and your family… because a journey worth traveling is worth remembering.
