Meet Amanda

I’m a wife, mama of two cute kiddos, pet-owner and a coastal nut. I am tea OBSESSED {McAlisters Tea to be exact} !! 

I truly believe pictures help anchor the home. Every day we walk through our homes and see the faces of the ones we love. Faces of our babies and family throughout the years - happy memories relived each time we pass by them. When we look at these images on our walls, they bring us joy, make us smile and help us to treasure each moment as we lived it.

I truly have the most amazing job in the world because I am able to provide these same feelings for my clients through telling your story of your family through the finished portraits created.

Why Knowles Photography?
More than a maternity Session

You don't need to know how to pose.

You don't need to know what to wear.

You don't need to know what looks good on camera.

That's my job.

From professional hair and makeup and a curated couture wardrobe to guided posing and custom artwork design, every detail is thoughtfully handled so you can simply enjoy this moment in your pregnancy.

Feel Beautiful
Be Guided
Be Pampered
Create Heirlooms

Initially My husband and Amanda collaborated to surprise me with a gift certificate for a maternity and newborn photo shoot for my birthday. She sent a cutie little gift box filled with little goodies, trinkets, and the certificate. It was super cute and special. My husband and Amanda again got together to surprise me with a belly casting for Valentine’s Day! It was our first time actually meeting Amanda in person at her studio we were greeted with a warm welcome, snacks, and water for whenever needed- Momma had to eat! I got to do my maternity shoot and it was amazing. Amanda had tons of dresses and accessories to choose from. Amanda was very professional but also very personable (which is totally more important) she had a great sense of humor. Lastly, we got to do our newborn photos the week we delivered. Amanda or aka the master baby shusher made sure we knew what to expect and instructed us on things we could do to be more comfortable . She also had gifts for our new little human. During all of the sessions Amanda shared personal stories and helpful hints for us and especially me becoming a new mom for the first time. My overall experience was amazing! We greatly appreciated the level of care we received.
