Meet Me! Amanda Howard :)

Salem, Oregon storytelling photographer

I am a storytelling and documentary photographer based in the PNW, and love anytime I get to travel pretty much anywhere. You name it! My husband and I live in Salem. Or with our two pups Indiana (a 7-year-old German Shepherd) and Nashville (our 3-year-old herding dog mix). When I am not photographing your beautiful faces I am reading books, my favorite genres are fantasy, romance and thrillers! I also roller skate, draw, and paint. I am a creative in every way and I am so glad part of my creativity reaches others.


I want your photos to look like scenes from a book or a movie. I love when I can capture the real nature of my clients when they are in a space that is their norm or brings them to life. Mundane moments are very important to me, and it makes me so excited to get detailed portraits of your precious and raw moments.

A little glimpse into my story.

FAQ

Do you travel for photoshoots?

I do! The trip will always be added to your session cost. Whether it is for fuel or flight with a place to stay. Please email me if you have any questions about this.

What should we wear for our session?

It really depends on the session and the vibe you are going for. If you want to do a garden session for example, you could dress in overalls if you really want to plant something OR if you just want to be in a local garden you can wear a colorful dress. I always send my clients a Style Guide (made by yours truly) when you book and we get to talk on the phone as well, so if you need any help those phone calls are great for that.

How long does it take to get our photos?

It really depends on the season - but most would be under three weeks.

Do you offer albums or prints?

I have a store on my website that you can purachase regular prints, canvases and cards.
