Serving the Southern Oregon Coast (Coos County), along with many towns and cities along the way! Welcome to my website and thank you for taking and interest in my work, my passion, my love! My name is Amanda and I began my photography business in spring of 2011, BUT, my love for photography began long, long ago when I was just a small child.
I remember filling up album after album of film photos of my friends and all the fun things we did as young kids as well as through highschool. My desire to learn my camera and take striking photos really took a turn when I had my first child (out of 4). I wanted to capture every cute, mad, ecstatic, fit-throwing emotion to always remember.

Many groups of friends, co-workers, teams & tournaments end up at the Bandon Dunes Golf Resort to spend a week (or weekend) on a once-in-a lifetime dream golf get-away. So many of these groups want to have their time documented through photography. I am able to accomodate up to 12 golfers (by bringing along a 2nd shooter), and possibly even more with a 3rd shooter.
Amanda recently took maternity photos of me and my family. She did such an amazing job of capturing us looking natural and relaxed, which was exactly what I had hoped for. She took some really creative shots that I never would have thought of, and they turned out to be some of my favorites! Not only did she take great shots, but she provided us with a CD of edited images before the weekend was out!

Amanda followed our family for a special 50th birthday celebration round at Bandon Dunes then also did a session on the beach with us for some more formal family pics. She’s sweet, kind, engaging, and takes really stunning photos. My tween sons were resistant to the idea at first, but then claimed that the photo session was “fun” after all was said and done. She even got our dog to pay attention! Thank you Amanda! We love our photos and memories, and you’re a huge part of that. Other notable mentions - Amanda is always quick to reply to questions and inquiries, I used Venmo for payment

Amanda is wonderful to work with! The best images came from the first few minutes of working together. It is as if she saw what I was aiming for stylistically before I could even fully envision my needs. She was on time to our appointment, worked quickly, with a friendly demeanor, and professional attitude. There was no wasted time and I received my images within 24 hours.

After planning a beach trip to celebrate the life of my mom and all family together. We decided to have pictures done since it was long overdue. Contacted Amanda a month before to schedule and she really worked on what was best for us. She was super flexible and making sure we were happy with everything. Pictures came out amazing and had some awesome ideas to capture the best moments. If we ever come back to bandon and need pictures done we will be in contact with her for sure. Thanks for all you did Amanda.

Amanda is amazing! We booked a family photo session with her while vacationing in Bandon this past November. She was able to accommodate the weather to reschedule our session to an earlier date that week due to forecasted rain on our scheduled date. I appreciated her flexibility as I feared we may miss out on the opportunity for photos. She did a wonderful job with our 5 month old and captured some amazing shots that our family will treasure forever. She had our photos retouched and ready within 24 hours, much to our surprise and delight. The images are beautiful. Looking forward to working with

My husband and I are so incredibly happy and thankful that we selected AmandaElise Photography for our wedding this past June. The pictures turned out absolutely gorgeous with truly beautiful and professional quality!! Amanda worked efficiently and creatively providing us with so many amazing shots on the beach, on the path through the forest area, on the sandstone cliffs above the ocean, and in the garden area at Shore Acres State Park in Oregon.
Not only were the pics stunning, Amanda was such a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Communication was seamless throughout the planning and

Amanda has a very natural and gifted ability in the art of photography. I have had the opportunity to work with Amanda on two occasions now. She's taken high school senior pictures for my daughter, and most recently, portraits of our family.
Her ideas are fresh and spontaneous. I had a few ideas of places and poses I wanted- which she did, but Amanda also came up with some very clever and creative poses right off the cuff and they turned out to be my favorites.
The entire session was easy and fun. Amanda was able to capture such beautiful images like the innocence of a child, the love of a family
