Amanda Hughes Photography
I'm Amanda - I'm so glad you're here! Whether you're a returning client or someone who just wants to see what I have to offer, welcome! My job is to ensure we capture your family, child or high school senior in a session that's laid-back, fun and true to who you are! Don't expect stiff posing during a session with me -- I guarantee I'll have you relaxed and laughing (usually at my expense!) in no time.

Life's memories are about the experiences; let's capture that! I'm native to the Battle Creek, Michigan area and I love photographing around our beautiful town. I have several locations for my sessions that are exclusive to me, as well as many tried-and-true familiar spots around the area. Have a specific vision?
Services
Intended for individual family households, these sessions are designed to capture the natural interactions and emotion between those you hold dearest in your hearts. I pride myself on making clients feel 100% comfortable (yes, even the husbands and dads!) which is why you'll laugh, cuddle, tickle, play games and even share funny stories about each other.
I'm so glad you're here! Whether you're someone I've photographed several times or you're just finding out about me, welcome!. I'm Amanda, an on-location photographer in the Battle Creek, MI area. This is my hometown and I LOVE capturing the families I've known for years just as much as those I meet for the very first time.

If you are looking for a photographer, Amanda is the one! Her work is amazing and we couldn’t be happier with our senior student session. I found her prices to be reasonable and she was also very accommodating… with locations and backgrounds. She takes a ton of pictures too which I thought was very cool because then you have so many options and also memories 😊 Thank you Amanda for making our first experience with senior pictures so enjoyable!!

Amanda is professional, talented and fun! I booked a mini-session for my 9 year-old and myself and was surprised with how many great photos she captured. She was patient during posing and catered to my son’s silly side so we have great candid shots too. She has a great eye!

Our family has had a few sessions with Amanda. She is very professional, reasonably priced, & kid friendly. My son Rocklyn feels comfortable with her which makes picture taking much more enjoyable. We've been pleased so far with our family sessions & my sons solo photo shoots that we will continue with her services in the future.

I came to Amanda when she was brand new at this. Well here we are years later and I only trust her to get our pictures. Amanda is professional yet still personable and easy to relate to. I cannot say enough kind words about Amanda and her work. If you haven't booked with her you need to!

Amanda is fantastic! She took some wonderful family pictures and grabbed some great pictures of my two huskies which is tough to begin with. Would recommend her to anyone!

We signed up for a mini-session and had the best experience! Amanda was absolutely amazing to work with and the photos turned out better than I imagined. We ordered prints from her site and they came so fast. I will say, we have younger, shy kids and it took nearly the whole session for them to warm up. Amanda still did an amazing job, I got all the shots I was hoping for, but maybe next time I would do a full session so my kids can have more time to settle in to what's happening. I highly recommend and I can't wait to work with Amanda again.

Amanda is so wonderful to work with. She communicates well and quickly, always working to get you what you’d like for your photos. We have used her several times for photos and she never fails to keep our kids attention, get genuine smiles, help us pose so we don’t look awkward and produce high quality photos in the end. We will continue to come back to her, she is a joy to work with!

We were nervous about getting good family photos with a 13 month old and a six year old. Amanda was wonderful to work with and was able to get so many cute pictures of the kiddos. The boys loved her and so did we. Our images were stunning. Everyone loved them!

Wow...where do I start! I've known Amanda for many, many years and having her capture my families most precious milestones was the best thing we could have done. She has taken our maternity pictures, our newborn session, my daughters 9 month and 1 year photos, a family session AND a mommy and me! She literally does it all...with a patient, fun and lighthearted demeanor she captures those precious moments so effortlessly! She is amazing at what she does and we can't wait for her to capture even more milestones!

Where do I begin. I have know Amanda for many years. She has been a great friend. She is a very talented photographer. Amanda captured so many great pictures of my son's Senior portraits. Not just that but what she done for my engagement pictures and my wedding pictures is beyond words. She is amazing.

Amanda was fantastic! We spent maybe 10 minutes with her, half of which our two kids were running around wild. But she managed to capture a lot of incredible photos. She is extremely kid friendly. We will certainly be working with her again in the future.

What a great time we had at the shoot space with Amanda. She was even able to get my 5 month, silly 2 year old, and grumpy with 'strangers' 8 year old to smile! We highly recommend for families who are hoping for great memories (and everyone else too!)

Amanda was amazing! She is very child friendly and even encouraged us to bring our dog! She was patient when the two were rambunctious and captured some amazing photos for us. I'm 1000% satisfied with our experience with her. I look forward to more mini sessions in the future!!
