Ever wonder why your photographer lowkey doubles as your therapist on wedding day?

Amanda joins Ivy in the confessional booth to spill the raw, real, and beautiful behind-the-scenes of being a wedding photographer. From managing couples’ expectations to navigating unpredictable wedding-day chaos, Amanda shares how she customizes each package with intention — and why the relationship she builds with her clients matters as much as the images she delivers. They dive into budgeting tips, industry trends, and the art of making each wedding genuinely feel like you. Oh, and yes, she’s dropping a little promo surprise for those tuning in.

Like a perfectly edited photo, this episode is layered, honest, and just the right amount of exposed.
