You deserve wedding photos that let you relive how the day actually felt

Your wedding day should feel joyful, present, and fully yours, not like one long photoshoot.

I document weddings with a balance of thoughtful guidance and honest observation so you can stay connected to the people and moments that matter most. The result is imagery that feels vibrant, emotional, and true to your experience.

Based in Frederick, Maryland and serving DC, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and beyond, I photograph celebrations with warmth, artistry, and an eye for the moments you didn’t even realize were unfolding.

"Our wedding pictures are absolutely amazing. Our family and friends were absolutely shocked with how great they turned out. We really enjoyed the entire process and experience with Amanda. From the engagement shoot to the wedding, the process was stress free and fun! It was great to know that we didn't have to stress about the quality of our pictures. She is an incredible photographer and we look forward to seeing future work too!"- Nathalie & Bobby

" Amanda was truly interested in telling our wedding story and learning about us personally in order to capture the best possible subject matter at our wedding." -Bobbi

"Professional and creative are two words that come to mind! I was beyond thrilled with my wedding photos. She took into great consideration our ideas and even used her own creativity to inspire and set the scene for our beautiful pictures." -Amber

"Amanda is a great photographer with a lot of creativity. She responded quickly and coordinated with me every step of the way. During what can be a very hectic and stressful time, Amanda made it fun!" -Mary Kate

"Amanda is such an amazing person to work with. She handled all the paper work for the photographer permits so we didn't have to do anything but enjoy our experience! She is warm and delightful and very good at eyeing positions and shots. We have beautiful engagement photos and had so much fun doing it."
-Lily

"We had such a fun time with Amanda as our photographer! She is very sweet and shares a very helpful guide full of advice for you to review before your photos. On top of that, she captures stunning, dreamy photos that are easy to download/share with family."

"Amanda is absolutely incredible! Her photos are pieces of art and she always has amazing ideas ! She goes above and beyond to get a good picture but without any stress. We are beyond happy with our engagement and wedding photos at Gramercy Mansion! If you are looking for a photographer, no need to look any further, Amanda is amazing!"

"We had our wedding at District Winery in DC and Amanda was the absolute best from the planning process to the final day. We can’t say enough positive things about her and the final product."

"If you're stressed out with wedding planning and need someone to just take the lead on scouting the area for a photo site, Amanda MacPhee Studios is your champion. Amanda completely understood the idea we had for "day before" and "day of" photos without needing much input from us, and then she took the execution into her own hands so we (the couple) did not have to worry about it. She was very good at adapting and making things work when our wedding plans changed right at the last minute (they always do). Two thumbs up!!"
