Hi there! I'm Amanda Michelle


Your friendly Austin-based photographer & videographer, creating art out of your unique love story that tends to make your heart skip a beat.


My mission is simple: blend into your wedding day like a friend with a camera to capture the raw&real bits, while leading with a directorial confidence to create the images you thought you could only dream of!


Below are a few personal details that'll help you get to know the person behind the camera - because the best imagery happens when we're more than just strangers working together :)

I believe:


Any two people can find a common ground

Connection happens within vulnerability
Every single wedding day is just as special as the last

You don't need to follow the trendS (CLASSIC IS ALWAYS BEST)

A day will be exponentially harder without a latte in-hand

One should listen far more than they should speak

Love is found in the most unassuming of places

A loosey-goosey approach in life will yield far more remarkable results

In witnessing every single sunrise & sunset I possibly can

TO BE LOVED IS TO BE KNOWN

Moments are fleeting, Photography turns them into forever.


Amanda has been creating art and documenting memories for over 13 years now, and while many things have changed over those years - the legacy of her tangible, tailored, and intimate experience remains the same.

The face in front of, and the brains behind Amanda Michele Co. Nice to meet ya!! 


I’m based out of Austin, TX, but this camera in my hand has taken me all over the world, and it’s something I’m incredibly grateful for. I’ve been creating images since 2011, and have no plans on stopping any time soon. After receiving my BFA Filmmaking degree in 2018, I was eager to blend motion pictures+audio into my business in order to give clients the best of both worlds.


If I can take part in capturing even a tiny portion of your lives, that’s an incredible honor that I don’t take lightly. I understand and appreciate that moments are irreplaceable. 


I’m always pushing to find ways to make sure i capture exactly how it all felt, pushing my intuitive approach a little further with every moment I freeze. 


I’m proud to call myself a professional in my field & I would be proud to have you as my client & friend.


Alright, that's enough of that! Let's start dreaming up you & your honey's biggest day, yet!

Kind Words

“I cannot speak highly enough of Amanda! She is an incredibly sweet and talented individual. She took my wedding photos 2 years ago and I can’t imagine that day without her. She took over so many responsibilities and went above and beyond. Since then she’s also done a family shoot for me and did such a great job coordinating a large group. I most recently had a boudoir shoot with her and she made me feel so comfortable and beautiful. I will never go to another photographer.”

“Amanda and her assistant were nothing short of AMAZING! We were so lucky to have her team with us on our wedding day! My husband is very shy when it comes to being on camera, so I was nervous going into the day, but Amanda made him feel so comfortable and relaxed. It made us both instantly so thankful we chose to work with her! She was professional, respectful and on her A-game the entire wedding. She worked seamlessly with our photographer, they were a great team!”

—Victoria & Garrett ┃ Fort Worth

“"10/10, 5 stars - hiring Amanda is hands down the best decision that you will make on your wedding day. Not only is she a pure delight to be around and an absolute ray of sunshine, Amanda is also professional, efficient, and stays on schedule! For both our engagement shoot and our wedding ceremony/reception we were overwhelmed by the amount of photos that we were given and that we absolutely loved! I would recommend Amanda to anyone looking to save some stress and add some joy to their wedding day."”
