Amanda Rachael Photography

History

I started in photography before anyone owned a cell phone or digital camera. I got my training in the fundamentals with countless hours spent behind my lens And in a darkroom learning the techniques and methods behind a camera. While I learned the Art of photography *old School* I have made sure to keep up with and perfect the skills used in modern day digital photography and photoshop. I use very high end professional equipment. My work has won awards and been published in books, medical proposals, and newspapers, as well as used for marketing on many large business blogs and catalogs. I also have designed a professional photography product and own a US patent #8671484 on it.

Specialties

I specialize in Maternity, Newborn, and baby studio portraits, as well as Custom Cake Smash Birthday Portraits. My goal is for you to relax, rest and enjoy this time with your newborn in a casual comfortable environment while I capture those tiny toes, perfect pouts, and details of your new little gift. I also offer Business, corporate, senior and modeling headshots as well as occasional family portraits. I have researched the Hampton Roads area well when setting up my new studio and have chosen a location that I feel is centrally located and easy to find for clients coming from Norfolk, Suffolk, Portsmouth, Newport News, Hampton, Smithfield, Carrollton, and many other local towns. The studio address is 3105 Western Branch Blvd, Chesapeake, VA. I look forward to meeting You!
