We had the pleasure of being photographed by Amanda in a pre-wedding session in May 2019 and at our wedding in October 2019. You could not ask for a more positive, bubbly photographer! My husband and I are not the most comfortable in front of the camera, but she made it work. She also did a great job corralling friends and families for shots and gracefully went along with some some incidents like blood on my wedding dress right before the first look. Amanda made a point to understand our photography wishes before the wedding, and we were very aligned in terms of style. We will cherish the photos that she took of our wedding!

Amanda was the perfect choice for our small, San Francisco City Hall wedding. She brought a positive, professional, and relaxed-yet-efficient energy to the day. She was communicative beforehand and made sure we were all on the same page about what we wanted. She did a great job of wrangling people for posed photos as well as taking candids, finding good photo spots, and generally feeling the energy of the group and us as a couple. And of course the pictures look fantastic! We could not be happier with Amanda's work and recommend her to anyone looking for an easy-going, professional photographer.

On the day of our wedding, we had lots of nerves, interesting family dynamics, and expectations floating around in our heads.
When I met Amanda that day for the first time, I felt I’d known her for much longer, like an old friend. She was able to capture our true essence because of her genuine kindness and desire to deliver photos that she herself would have wanted on her special day. Amanda went above and beyond processinging our photos within days and making certain to capture each group or solo pic we said we wanted to have. I strongly recommend Amanda for any photography special occasion.

Amanda is an amazing person and a very talented photographer! My husband and I were so lucky to have had her capture our intimate wedding at the San Francisco City Hall, attended by our closest family members. Amanda was extremely professional and kind: she arrived before the ceremony, captured the signing of the marriage license/certificate, the whole wedding ceremony, family portraits, couple formals, etc.! She knows City Hall inside out, and even managed to convince the officiant to hold the ceremony on the 4th floor balcony. After the wedding, she sent us a few photographs for us to share with our loved ones, and about a month after the wedding she sent us the full gallery - and, WOW the photographs are amazing, the light is just right, and everyone looks so good! Amanda captured every single detail with such beauty: the flowers, the rings, my hairstyle, my husband's boutonnière... Amanda knew just how to position us so that we look great together, without looking stiff. We couldn't have wished for a better photographer for our wedding, and we are so grateful to Amanda for the amazing work she did!

Amanda shot our wedding in San Francisco.  When we first met to discuss our ideas, she was very helpful, warm, and thoughtful.  She was always very responsive in our communication leading up to the wedding.  Our wedding ended up being on one of the wettest days in San Francisco history, and she was very flexible on some last minute changes that needed to be made.  She stayed so upbeat while getting drenched in the rain with the rest of us!  We loved how our photos turned out and they completely captured the magic of the day.

Both my now husband and I along with our guests were very happy with the services provided to us by Amanda! She was very easy to work with, very cheerful the whole time (which made smiling for the pictures that much easier!), very organized in how she was taking pictures and what pictures she took, punctual, artistic, and creative. Her communication was excellent and very prompt!

She was able to go out of her way for us and work on a very short notice. She was also able to work with us and our smaller wedding.

She had a very quick turn-around time with the photos, and the pictures turned out very beautifully. She had a good eye for details and posed us very well for the photos.  We also loved how she edited the photo: the colors, saturation, lighting, and focus points were just right!

We recently had the opportunity to work with Amanda when COVID changed plans with our clients' original photographer. She was flexible, gracious, cool, and calm. We'd highly recommend working with her and look forward to the next opportunity.

Amanda was our photographer for our wedding in April and she absolutely knocked it out of the park. Amanda captured our night and I love every photo! Amanda is easy to work with and brings a unique eye for detail. As someone who hates taking photos, Amanda made the photo session easy and comfortable. Additionally, she was organized, punctual, and was excellent at asking questions that really helped me organize the wedding planning. Leading up to the wedding, we’d have check in calls and every time I hung up with her, I felt a renewed sense of excitement for the wedding. Overall, my husband and I both highly recommend Amanda.

About

Amanda Aceves
Photographer Amanda Aceves About me

My grandfather was a tinkerer and a huge camera collector. I grew up always fascinated by his wild collection of cameras, camera parts and bits and bobs in the attic. Thats where the Nintendo  was so as a child you can guess we hung out there quite a bit.
When he found out I was taking a darkroom class, you bet he way over joyed. It was such a wonderful time to talk camera gear and just spend some good times together. Though he is not with us now, I think he'd be thrilled to learn that I get to continue to love photography and bring joy to others through capturing moments.
Moments are precious and I love being able to capture memories in a tangible way. I sincerely believe our life's moments should be captured and preserved for generations.
