It was cold, it was wet, it was raining and snowy...

Good Bye January! 

Hellooooooo February!!

I thought this would be a perfect way to say thank you and goodbye to January and hello to February!!

To start our new 2017 AMP Models off with a bang, I decided to do this amazing super, fun, snow shoot! Little did I forget that we live in the PNW, where the weather is sometimes well, just doesn't play too nice. We meet in the morning, got prepped and headed out up north! As the clouds got darker and darker, the fog got thicker and thicker, I had to park my car, hop in with one of my girls, since my pretty car doesn't quite have 4 wheel drive HAHA. It was definitely an adventure, scary because of crazy bumps and pot holes; but the ultimate result was totally worth it!

Go figure it was cold, wet, rainy, our hair was soaked, our feet were cold, my gear was wet; but it was so totally fun!!

Thank you ladies for coming out and enjoying this wintery shoot with me!! It was totally worth it!! 

Get ready for this up and coming month! We've got our 2017 AMP Model Intros coming along with something special for this "love month".  Stay tuned!!

xoxo, Amanda

Hannah K. | Class of 2015 | Amanda Mae Photography

Meet Hannah! Class of 2015 at Lakewood High School, where she cheers and is involved in her school's activities and is this year's Miss. Aquafest for the city of Lake Stevens Wa!

I first met Hannah in the fall of 2013. It seems like forever ago that she applied to be a 2014 AMP Model! Now here we are, several shoots later and with her Senior Portraits complete, I'm shocked at how fast time just flew by!

With Hannah's Session she wanted something that was her and her personality all the way. What better way to capture her petite figure and dainty features than to channel her inner AUDREY HEPBURN! We were all inspired by Breakfast At Tiffany's! Though the rest of our shoot was just as fun, The Breakfast At Tiffany's segment was one we were all looking forward to. 

In the major heat and sun, Hannah was amazing with suitcases galor, battling the heat from the hot car and even adding a bit of a puppy accessory! Her shoot was just as fabulous and she is and was just too much fun!

Thank you Hannah Girl! We love you, we are so proud of you and contrats!! I know that there is an amazing and wonderful future ahead of you! You are a strong, beautiful and big hearted young lady. I am so excited to see all the amazing things ahead of you!!

CONGRATS PRETTY GIRL!

Chloe Kaintz : Class Of 2015 : Archbishop Murphy High School

Meet the lovely and stunning Chloe! Class of 2015 and from Archbishop Murphy High School, this gorgeous red head is so adorable and just too cute! She came yesterday to pick up her order and we both just fell in love again with all of her images in final print that I thought, "what a perfect time to finish up her blog post and post it!".

Chloe's day started with hair and makeup, Ilona was absolutely fabulous at executing exactly what Chloe and I envisioned for her makeup. Complementing her eyes and perfect gorgeous hair! We had several styles set up but we were all super excited to capture her love for mermaids. A perfect older prom dress was the exact look we wanted for her last segment of her session. As we headed to our set location, the tide was coming in and was perfect to get IN the water. With too much excitement, I didn't even get to kick my shoes off, and SPLASH, into the water I went about ways deep and trying to climb over a huge muddy log. With my height, tall log and camera in hand in waist deep water, was a hilarious site; but SO TOTALLY WORTH THE SHOTS! lol.

Thank you Chloe for an amazing day and time. I so loved every single moment of your session! Congrats and I am so excited for your future!! Go take the world pretty girl!

xoxo, Amanda

Balloon Bae | Samone Jackson | 2015 AMP Model Winner

I am so excited to announce our 2015 AMP Model Winner, Ms. Samone Jackson of Edmonds Woodway High School! All of our amazing AMP Models worked hard and did an awesome job, it was Miss Moni that earned the title as this year's AMP Model Winner!

I wanted to celebrate her winning by doing a special session for the cover of our AMP Magazine and thus The Balloon Bae was born! We had so much fun from getting all the balloons, late night balloon prep party lol and to the styling, hair and makeup. We wanted a bright and fun feel while conveying of course that fashion aspect we always love. Samone was awesome and was so amazing, having fun and being silly. 

Thank you Moni for an amazing year! I am so excited for you to see what is in store for you. Nothing but success girl and I cannot wait to see it all happen! CONGRATS and we love you!

xoxo, Amanda
