HAPPY NEW YEAR! : Amanda Mae Photography Washington Senior Photography

2012 IS OVER!

I cant believe at how fast this year has just swung by. I sware the older I get the faster these years go by..........Im not THAT old either haha. 

Its amazing at how in just this past year so many things have happened. From leaving CA where we grew up, to re planting ourselves here in WA and my photography....its just amazing...not only that but to see my son, Cash, grow up happy and healthy and begin to speak and seeing his little personality begin to shine through.....which I think he is ALOT like his mommy...haha. 

Ultimately, I am so crazy thankful for my new home, WASHINGTON; for my family, my husband, my son...and of course all of you CRAZY AWESOME CLIENTS and my MODELS! Im so blessed and Im just soooooo excited for what this new year is going to bring. It's new ground, new soil, new life and a new hope. So, I guess my resolutions arent really resolutions this year....but thankfulness of how we arrived.

So with that...here are some of my favorite moments from this past year. Have a happy and safe New Years everyone!!!

AMP MODEL SOCIAL : Senior Photography Amanda Mae Photography

This past Sunday was our Annual AMP Model Social Event!

It was SOOOOO MUUUUUCH FUUUUUN! Yes, that did in fact called for me to type in all CAPS! haha...Anyway,

Our Social Event was for all of our 2013 and 2014 AMP MODELS. It's to kick off our new year and celebrate our past year with our models and in their success with referrals.

With everyone all cutesy in their favorite scarfs, we had so much fun and Simply Sweet Cupcakes was THE PERFECT location for us! Each of our amazing Models snacked on their favorite cupcake while we went over our year and distributed the 2013 Model Awards and Winnings for their amazing year!

I want to take a minuet to congratulate the lovely Bailey Toupin from Snohomish High School, Class of 2013!! She is our AMP MODEL WINNER for the 2013 Class. With her racking in the highest referrals she became our Model Winner and is now the cover of our AMP Magazine which is distributed to all of her following classmates and every other client that books. She has a feature in our AMP Magazine and was awarded that night!

All of our 2013 AMP Models worked hard and did an amazing job! I anticipate an amazing new year for our 2014 Models!!! I can feel it in the air.....they're ganna rock it!!

Overall the night was filled with giggles, fun, and cupcakes! Special thanks to my amazing sister for joining us and helping out, along with Bea, my Make Up Artist from Bonzai Hair and Make up and of course Simply Sweet Cupcakes (and Bridgette too) for hosting our little get together!

Thank you again and there was left over cupcakes and sandwiches.....this week its been crazy in my house, sandwiches and cupcakes EVERY DAY haha..

Hello Gorgeous Maddy : Snohomish Senior Photographer Amanda Mae Photography

Hellooooooo Gorgeous!

This is Maddy from Snohomish High School! She is Class of 2013 and is just a red head of ADORABLENESS! Seriously, I had soooo much fun on this girl's shoot!!

Our day started out as Bea, our Make Up Artist, was gettin' Maddy all perttified and we were piecing her outfits together! Maddy had brought this GORGEOUS cobalt blue blouse that I just knew would be a dream to photograph. Headed on over to some of our favy spots and than ended the day at this amazing rustic Barn that I just heart to death!!

Maddy is fun and loves to chat up a storm lol ME TOO so there was LOTS of convos going on lol. She was so easy and comfy in front of the camera that her fierce faces were so simple, I just LOVED THEM!  She totally worked it out and I'd say a photographer's dream to shoot and EDIT! Her skin is seriously this SMOOTH! SERIOUSLY! lol. 

Anyway, we just had a fabulous time!! Thanks again Maddy for an amazing shoot....totally some of my favs!!!! 

xoxo,

Amanda

Hey everyone!!!

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving this past week! Well, I wanted to share Jenny's amazing Session! She went with our VOGUE Experience Session! It was an entire day filled with clothes, shoes, make up, hairstyles and gorgeous portraits....and one awesome PHOTOGRAPHER!! haha jk lol...Anyway, Our VOGUE Experience is definitely THE ULTIMATE in the Senior Experience! With our amazing make up and hair stylist following Jenny around, making sure her hair was perfect and make up was set for each shot! Not to mention additional looks....Jenny got an entire day of gorgeousness...not to mention more time to get more stunning portraits!!

Jenny was so amazing! This girl's hair was just STUNNING! I absolutely was soooo jealling over it. I've always wanted to go blonde, but the hubs aint on board with that hahah. Jenny did such a wonderful job and she was so willing to get down, bend, twist and even hang out on the side of an old rusty barn! Lol....playing in the HAY haha.

Jenny goes to Snohomish High School and is already taking a few courses in College. THIS GIRL is AHEAD of the game I tell ya! Jenny and Linda, thank you for giving me this amazing opportunity in capturing your Senior Portraits for this excited time in your life! Congrats and enjoy the rest of your Senior Year!!

Meet Danielle from Snohomish High School!

Class of 2013, Danielle is a tall brunette beauty! She is absolutely the perfect combination of rocker hard meets lovely soft! lol. As we were gettin' her all beautified she brought her baskets full of awesome clothes and shoes for her shoot!

With the help of her BFF, Abby and one of our 2013 AMP MODELS, we had a totally rockin' shoot! Danielle is fun, goofy and loves taking random crazy pictures lol (hence the last one at the bottom). She did so great and by the time the shoot was coming to an end, she had found her inner model and was just Tyra-ing it till the sun was down!

Danielle, thank you for a wonderful shoot. Your personality is just fun and hilarious! LOVE IT! Enjoy and congrats again!!!
