I'm a Chicago area based photographer specializing in newborn, children, and family portraits. We recently moved to Elmhurst, but I travel to the city and surrounding suburbs for all my clients! I'm a teacher/wedding planner turned stay-at-home Mom. If I'm not doing #momlife with my three boys, I'm trying to fit in dates with my husband, family dance parties, or wine nights with my best gals.

I enjoy cooking, but hate meal planning and really love a night out for sushi. My guilty pleasure is Bravo reality tv and I love watching new movies if we ever actually pick one! For as long as I can remember, I've been taking photos. It was always such fun to pick up my developed film and see what pictures I had taken!

I highly recommend Amanda Kay Photography! For the last two years Amanda has taken our annual family photos and the photos are just wonderful. She has a knack for capturing a wide range of images and making us look our best! She’s also awesome with our dog and has taken super cute photos of him as well. She is very personable, responsive and easy to work with.

Amanda is flexible, friendly, professional and she captured beautiful photos! What else could you ask for. We rescheduled on her twice due to rain and then a sick kiddo. She was very gracious. And then our toddler didn't want to smile AT ALL during the shoot. And I really thought we were sunk...until I saw the photos. Amanda captured some smiles and I really dont know how she did. Hire her. She is a delightful person that will get great results for you.

I’m honored to know Amanda as a friend and now as a photographer. And I’m so proud of Amanda as a photographer and the business she has built.
I’ve always know Amanda was good with kids, since she is an educator by background. However, watching her in action with my daughter was simply amazing. For her newborn pics, she was the baby whisperer, efficiently and effortlessly putting my baby in the cutest poses and comforting her when she would cry. For her one year pics, she easily engaged with my daughter, getting her to laugh and smile, which made for the sweetest pictures. And for our most

Amanda is truly wonderful to work with. We have worked with her for several family photo sessions and we are always so thrilled with the results. She is highly professional, kind, charming, and friendly! She makes us feel at ease during the sessions, and most of all, she gets our young daughter to respond to the camera so well! The communication is easy, as well as online payment, online gallery and always a reasonable and quick turnaround for our photos. We would highly recommend Amanda, you can trust her with your families memories!

In the middle of this crazy time of Covid, Amanda did an amazing job with a 3 year old and newborn. She was able to capture the kids beautifully, and was completely calm while do it! Highly recommend!
